Default Argh!!! The suspense...

So, here it is one week and one day after I test drove and agreed to purchase a Scion xA.

They didn't have a black one so they had to order it, then they had to add the options (which I believe is finally done now), and now it's waiting at the port for someone to deliver it to the dealership.

I was told it would be here this morning at the latest and well, I am still Scion-less. (And I really don't want to put more gas in my trade-in. Hehe.)

The suspense is killing me. >

The longer you wait, the bigger the smile will be on your face when they hand you the key to your F.O.B. xA

Though if they make you wait too long, be sure to give them an earful!

I'm still waiting on *any* dealership to find me a BOP xB.
I'm thinking about getting my runner up color and just
getting silver since my clutch died on my current car.

Good luck with the new car!

I know exactly how you feel! It was suppose to come in yesterday, but the truck never showed and was moved to today. This is killing me! I'm stuck at work, the sun is out in full force.. but no car yet

Yeah, when the salesman told me this, he had this look in his eye like he had done this a few times before.

I guess this is the Scion way at least until they get the system down pat.

Anyhoo, c a n ' t w a i t . . .

Oh, and thanks again for all of the great info on this site. You guys really made me feel confident about my decision. ^_^

It can take awhile. Be patient, it'll come. If it's at the port it should only take a week or so.
