I've been waiting for over 2 months. I was also told 2 weeks. Every Toyota dealership has told me they are the #1 dealership and they move the most cars. The most they move are 3-10 scions per month, not 400.

well, skimmed through the thread and here's my story

Tuesday Oct. 12th 2004 went to dealer to buy a Scion tC - they had a silver streak mica auto with airbags, I wanted a Flint Mica 5-speed manual with airbags, did paperwork for about 30 mins, figured out what kind of options they had and made a rough estimate of what I want with it, got the best rate possible (4.4%) and went home, called him a few days later like he asked so he could answer some of my questions (called him back on friday) and he said he'd put in the order Monday (kinda ____ed me off because I thought he'd already put it in and we were just talking about a few options later)

I got a message from him saying I should call him, which was yesterday, calling him tomorrow, called him tonight on his cell and he was at home (woops lol) and he said it should be there when they get their shipment in on monday the 15th of November, but I should call him tomorrow when he's at the dealer to look at some papers for some things he needed to mention (some conflicts of options that prolly doesn't matter)

Flint Mica 5-speed manual with side airbags like I wanted, and it'll take 29 days (36 with the days from I went there to when he actually ordered it) 21 weekdays from order date @ Fitzgerald Scion of Gaithersburg, Maryland

put down deposit for flint mica 5 spd w/o side airbags on Oct 22...
no options.. just bare bones...

received a flint mica 5 spd WITH side airbags.. on Nov. 4 (actually like... 6 hours ago). a little less than two weeks after laying down the deposit. also cost me a little more than i anticipated because of the side airbags, but i wanted the car immediately and they gave me a better price for my trade in than i thought so i got some other extended warrantees and crap. good times.

Default MEssage from Scion headquarters..

Hey yall,
I emailed Scion headquarters about my wait and everyone else's wait. They said that the waiting list is nationwide depending on the options wanted.
They said that the average wait is around 3 months. 2 hours after receiving the message....Savannah Toyota called with my VIN number. and varifying my options. So at least I know my car is somewhere waiting for me....even if its on the other side of the earth. Now as long as the ship dont sink I should be ok.
