I ordered my car it seems an eternity ago. was told it was in port(BC) and was a neek away. Then, that car was sold BUT there was another one in coming. i got a VIN but still no signs. Anyone have words of Wisdom?

my dealer offered me to DRIVE my car 1250km, which takes a day or 2 from brantford, ONT. to Montreal, QC or ship it over by truck.

there was only one available through canada, and they got it for me.

call toyota head office and ask them whats going on, you have a vin, so there is a car alocated to you, i work for CN, and if its going by freight car on cn lines it's a minimum 6 days travel, then it goes to the auto compound, to get sorted, then delivered to your dealer, etc... and as stated vancouver had the rain storm, and norther ontario has bad snow, and as of yesterday the CN lines north of capreol were blocked with a derailment , if you can get a car number of the auto carrier, i can track that car for you!

I ordered my Yaris at the beginning of November. They didn't have the colour and model I wanted, but and it arrived the 22nd, and was picked up at the dealership by the 25th. I had no problems with the service at all. I guess it depends on the dealership.

That happened to me as well. I made a deal with the salesman, they said they have a car with the specs i want, put down a deposit, and three weeks later, they couldn't deliver. needless to say, i went to another dealership.
