Waiting for a YARIS!!!

[iamvolcom]

I bought a Yaris last week. Salesmen told me it should be in by the end of the month. I called him yesterday and he said it would now be midway through August.

Has anyone been in a similar situation? Were you able to get something out of it? Waiting a month for a car is quite the headache!

...cancel the deal. You haven't picked it up yet, cancel the deal.

You could try and ask for something and why not? But realistically I'm sure there's another 10 people at that dealership waiting for that car. Still can't hurt to ask.

we bought a yaris and got the car in the same week last month, we actully changed the color and they had to reorder a different one. but still waiting for the gas card, how long does the gas card normally take?

Not sure what your Bill of Sale says, but on mine, I read the fine print on the back and it says they can make you wait up to 3 months for a car, unless both sides agree to cancel the agreement.

I wonder if people have been made to wait that long before...

Our Yaris came in a week behind schedule, and my sales guy thrown in the mp3 6 cd changer as a little surprise, we didn't even ask for it, because he felt bad to make us wait the extra week.

Your dealer probably wasn't able to find the exact car you want from a nearby dealership, that's why they have to order from Japan, so there's no point to cancel the deal unless you are going to shop for another car or get one of the Yaris they have on the lot. I'm sure someone will be happy if you cancel your deal, because someone will be getting their car early!

As for what Edirol said, yes I recall when the 06 Civic Si first came out, some people got it at MSRP and still have to wait 4-5 months for it.

I wouldn't cancel the deal, I was just wondering if anyone got anything extra out of a situation like this. This is redflagdeals isn't it?

3 months? That's nuts! Isn't it usually "7 days within the promised date of delivery"? Because on the reverse side, if the vehicle is available for delivery, you usually have 7 days to take delivery before the dealer can send you, via registered mail, a notice of "cancellation and we're keeping your deposit", lol.

My cousin just got one and supposedly they are shipped from Japan so that could be the reason for the wait. Apparently the plants here do not make the Yaris (yet)

It all depends on when you bought the vehicle!!! Right now stock is limited, thus longer wait times!!!!

I know a person that brought a Corolla and was told next week delivery, and DON VALLEY north couldn't deliver for another 6 weeks, so they offered him one of their loaner vehicle till the new corolla arrived. This was like 2 months ago.

standard sales agreement on car purchases does state 90days. thats why i asked them to put in writing a condition that its only valid for 7days when i bought my car

my friend had to wait for a good 2 months before it came from Japan

of all the cars available out there, why in the world would you wait for a yaris. urgh give them an ultimatum, they've got 2 days to give you the car or you get a full refund and you buy yourself something better, like a horse.
