Canadian Stock Allocations

Hi everyone!

I have been informed this is the more popular GR Corolla forum. I work as inventory control for a Toyota dealer in Canada and am able to share "allocations" as they are released to dealers.

Most of you already know that Toyota does not do true "factory orders", only allocation requests. I've gone into detail a few times in the GR86 thread,


Here is the original thread from the other GRC forum


and Supra 6MT allocations;

I am curious if trades between dealers work? For example, I don't like a black one and want a red one, can I try to ask my sales to seek other dealers if they're willing to trade?
Would be cool if that worked out for you, but I doubt you'd find someone looking to drop a red core for a black one lol.
Looks like there is to be 181 Canadian Circuits for this model year.

That is cool and at the same time very nerve wracking as I'm waiting and hoping for one.

Am I the only one who sees this as good news? Who thought that Canada was going to get 12% of Circuit editions? I thought we were getting 150 max. This basically guarantees I'll be getting one this year since my dealer was in the first group of allocations for circuits.

Of course it is a good thing if you are getting one. A lot of people on the top of the list will be offered a Core model, not sure how I fell about taking a chance of waiting longer for a CE.

I will buy whatever my dealer offers me first. Can always trade later for a CE if offered one.

I can afford to wait till 2024 if I need to. Rumors is that the 2024 CE is also going to be offered in blaze blue, so I'll happily wait for that.
Hello gang! no GR Corolla for me this year. I was second on the waiting list but first for a Core, the first on the list wanted a Circuit and as his luck to get one he took the white Core I had ordered. better luck next time...

If you don’t mind waiting, it will pay off as you get to also pick your color.

Your dealer is only getting one per year?

At least you know you are getting the next one. Imagine being XXX on the list in a very big dealership, they can tell you bs and you wouldn’t know better.

Im next in line for the 2024 Type R at my local dealer (one per year)...

So seems like this is my allocation, being first on the list for the CE. Do we have an ETA as to when it'll land in Canada/Dealers?

Looking at the list, it's roughly 2 months from allocation date to date of first use. So end of this month seems fair in your case! Let us know when it drops at your dealer!

Looking to see if anyone has any information on this.

After reading here that someone was added onto a wait list in April 2023 and there was only 6 people on the list (or something similar to that) I decided to give the dealership a call and get added onto that list aslo. Ive already been waiting since mid late 2022 on another waitlist... But it seems there's no end in sight lol.

Anyways, I called up the dealership, told them the situation, and they said they're no longer making waitlist, and that the waitlist is Canada wide. I asked him what that means, and he pretty much said that dealers wait lists don't exist anymore, and now it's just whoever gets put into the system first across Canada is first on the list in Canada. This is the first time I'm hearing of this ...

We're they trying to just not deal with me? Was he lying? Is he just dumb? Or is this the new system? Lol anyone have any input?
