    Very nice, did they give you an estimated delivery time?

    Not yet. We thought mid-December, but that is just a guess. Once the order is in for a while, should get some info from Toyota.

    Congrats! I suspect the Premium will be the best seller - it hits the sweet spot for features vs. MSRP.

    The salesman was very good, not pushy, etc. Was going to wait until word about the NY tax credit came out, but it is still in process. Said if they could make up the difference, I'd take the car now. They did.

    I contacted them. Grey with dark grey interior. Didn't know what the blue really looked like, so didn't chance it. Also, it deaccents the grill triangles a bit. No solar panel.... anyway, the advanced features didn't grab me, so didn't get them.

    Got the clear bra. Got it on my 2010, and the front was pretty pristine with no rock chips. It was highly recommended then, and I can highly recommend it now.

    Mine is scheduled to arrive in port 11/3 on the Century Leader No. 3 (I think). Can't wait. Hope the delay to the dealer isn't too long. I've heard that every single one has to be inspected because it's a new vehicle. Hopefully I'll pick it up around the 15th of Nov.

    Me too, but the waiting sucks. Port delay at least a week.

    Those that have preordered, are you just paying the MSRP price?

    I'm interested in ordering as well in Southern California, but every dealership (6 of them) I've contacted has either not responded (strange since they usually jump on my emails about cars) or told me they dont have details yet.

    I've purchased vehicles from this dealer before and they were on my request, couldn't give me a date yet, which isn't much of an issue for me. It's somewhat similar to the wait for my PIP.
