Toyota pissing me off

[yaris2010RS]

sorry, that was misscomunication, i payed $500 bucks for them to order it, i give them the rest when i pick it up. and check this out, i called the dealer on saturday at 11:18am, its monday morning, still yet to hear from the salesman. as for the car, its 2010 yaris rs with the a/c, 5 speed tranny, rims, seperate winter tires and steelies, blue with the rally spoiler. trying to get another 1000 bucks to get under coat and coating on seats and floors and they gave me the winter rubber mats and paint extra pretective coating for free (which i feel is bull shit, how do i know if i got that coating or not? he told me it was clear and would be all over the car so it rarly needs to be waxed and takes alot longer to get dirty, we will see.) ( does anyone know how to tell with the paint coating?) i need to find out the terms in which i can tell them to fuck off, my mom had the same issue when she wanted the PT cruiser (i know its not toyota), she called media and shit after the car took longer then 3 months to come and 2 days later the company called my mom and told her to come pick up her deposit. i love toyota quality and the rs is sick but ATTRELL TOYOTA IN BRAMPTON IS NOT THE WAY TO GO. i will call him again in the morning, see if i can get a hold of him when they first open. he is always on lunch or with a client. i thought seeing as he is the owners son (phill Attrell, and his father is John Attrell) shit would be soft and go very well. how long would you say is too long to wait for a car? i know he told me 3 weeks at the latest but what is average wait time?

I call bullshit too. All it is going to be is a wax job by one of their lot boys.

You were very specific on your order. The more picky you are the longer it is going to take. Your dealer did not send your order over to Japan and say "Build it exactly like this." Your dealer puts the order into your distributor. IF/When the distributor receives a Yaris matching your order, they will send it to your dealer. At this point the only thing your dealer has done wrong is to tell you that it would be delivered in 3 weeks. Maybe they meant to tell you that it would be at LEAST 3 weeks. I wouldn't be surprised if it took serveral months for your car to arrive because you were so specific. This a very common problem. People think they can "Build Your Own" Toyota and that Japan will build it just for you. When in fact you can only do a preference order.

For example, if I ordered a Yellow Yaris it is going to take a lot longer than if I ordered a White Yaris. Toyota builds more white than Yellow. Therefore the chances that your distributor will receive a yellow is a lot lower than the chances of getting a white one.
