There is a ton of excitement right now on the forum and its hard to keep up with all the threads, but I thought it would be good to start a thread now to aggregate all the info we are hearing from dealers only.

In the next few days/weeks/months there is going to be a lot of info flying around about ability to spec the cars or not, getting a choice between CP or Core, is there an official specing process, landed dates, build tracking etc etc.

So lets keep this to info you are hearing from your dealer.

I'll start.......i called my dealer again this morning and basically got nothing, haha. Nice kid and said he would shoot me a text as soon as he hears anything but also said "if you hear anything on the forums, let me know and I'll see what I can find with that info".

Seems like he wants to help but not a lot from him right now.

You?

Do we know if RTV is an issue on the G16E at all?
This engine isn't produced by Subaru so it isn't affected.

So is it still a 14k markup
I'm still waiting to hear details from this guy. I keep asking, and he's just like

"there's only one of them"
"check out this fb marketplace post of a dealer trying to sell a circuit edition for $60k"

I personally think they're keeping the $14k markup and trying to lube me up to it, so I'm not too optimistic. I just feel vindicated they haven't sold it yet and it's gonna sit there on the floor.
Quick update, I talked to them and got the price down to $2k over. That's my breaking point. Sorry fellas for folding on not MSRP gonna pick it up next week :).

Joe Myers who told me a month ago that their Circuit allocation was sold, called me today to asked if I was still interested. They had two deposits lined up for it and both fell through. Good riddance.

What markup were they asking?
10,000 over.
Yikes. Would you actually trade up if they came down to MSRP?

I already got a Circuit elsewhere, but this dealer was playing games with me. As was Keating Toyota. So I looked outside of Houston.

Not an update, but has everyone else been getting blown up with dozens of Memorial Day sale emails? I swear every other email I get is one of those with how many dealers I've given my email to.

Nothing worse than trying to market, and capitalize, on a holiday where we are to remember, celebrate, and mourn those who have fallen while defending our nation. Sales, grilling meat, and getting hammered is done instead. Man I loathe any and all marketing.
What markup were they asking?
Joe Myers is the one with a price of 136k right now on toyotas inventory site.
My dealership I put deposit down last year act strange. They have 2 cars allocated so far. The first one is a black core which is not what I want. It ends up being a "shop car". No call or nothing to notify me the car was here. I was like, ok at least they get the shop car thing done and no more excuse for the 2nd allocation. 2 months later, they have a circuit edition in and I asked about that as soon as it is on the tracker. They said that they don't see the allocation is in my name. Then I ask them what does that mean since I put money down to reserve the 1st CE and it went silence. So, I decided to go to the dealership in person and see if I can get more information, I talked to one of the sales person and he told me they don't know what to do with the CE and maybe keep as shop car. I told the sales that they have already done that to the 1st allocation, how many shop car they need. Ofc he do not have answer for that. I end up leaving the dealership puzzling.......anyone experienced this before?
