Default Sorry...the delivery truck was delayed...

Going to pick up my new baby at noon today and I get a call from the dealer about 15 minutes, "Good morning, just wanted to let you now that the delivery truck has been delayed and now we are looking at a pickup time of sometime tonight..."

I don't wanna wait...I want it now!

I had to deal with kinda the same thing, although it was the dealer calling to tell me that the bumper had cracked on my brand-new tC thanks to one of the hold down straps on the delivery truck.

Now I'M waiting an extra 3 days for them to replace it

So I know how you feel! It sucks!

try waiting waiting an extra week cause my car arrived to port right before it closed for a week for christmas, plus another 3 days to install the extras because the parts didn't come in on time.

Depends on what you want. Ex. Side air bags with flint mica, may take longer (like 16 weeks).

Depends on location and how many cars the dealership gets every 2 weeks.

Delerships were saying 4-6 weeks on average.( 16 weeks ago) but in some cases its 16 weeks
Thats in St. Louis at the largest Scion dealership.

the air bag option made up about 5% of the cars made in 2004.

they also uped the productioin of the tC to meet demand in early 2005.
When the tC came out they made a lot of the silver, every delership had silver.

try mine.
got my mr2 dec. 21st 2003 with a blown engine.
finally got it running july 2nd 2004. I had to save up money for the engine, other expenses got in the way...then the two weeks to replace the engine myself, and the week it sat waiting for diagnosis at toyota. That was painful. It sat and sat and sat, and I sat in it and it didn't move. lol hopefully you will get yours soon enough.
My g/f only had to wait 12 days for hers

How about a year? Once I heard about the tC and saw a conceptual design, I had to wait until JUL to get the first tC in my area. Least it was well worth it.....
