I would assume you don't get a VIN until all the cars are scanned at port and then your order is matched.

There is hope.

Not trying to be a dick, but I don't want to start explaining everything.

It's a fact, but take it for what it is worth.

digitizedsoul · 10-17-2012, 04:01 PM

That's fine, would just be nice to be able to play around with this myself.

I'm not in anyone else's region, am the only one who's ordered anything in the south-east (especially georgia) and so I'm not fortunate enough to share in the group tracking for those areas...

Thanks.

RyStar · 10-17-2012, 04:17 PM

sent you a PM man

RyStar · 10-17-2012, 04:31 PM

maybe I am just crabby today

digitizedsoul · 10-17-2012, 04:37 PM

I know I am, NO CAR!
And i'm weeks away from even approaching any new news, I ordered 10/5 ffs lol

They transmit the VINs when the ship leaves Japan as far as I am told.

However, I think the boat arrives faster than the distribution department can process all the data and pair up the orders....

What I am saying is this is you:

Are ya'll talking about the same thing? There is the plastic bumper cover that "permanently" sticks to the bumper, then there is a bumper protector that does what he did. I like the fact that his is longer than the factory one, but I like the Subaru one because it is a simple Velcro and probably more durable(I am rough).

Subaru. 96% of cars sold in the last 10 years are still on the road. No wait. Make that 95% again. THANKS to drivers like that.

Not sure what cars are on what ships, but a Forester we are waiting on is on a ship due in port on 11/15. It is on it's way to a Mexican port via Honolulu now.

Yeah. I was told it can vary. Sometimes it's right away, other times its a week before it hits port.

For all of you waiting on WRX/STIs, you are luckier than this customer. She ordered her Forester on 6/27 and with that ship hitting PORT on 11/15, we are just hoping the car can get here before Christmas.

Pan WRX · 10-17-2012, 06:30 PM

Hey everyone, I placed my order 9/26. WRX Limited, 4dr, no nav, no options. Dealership originally said "normally the wait is 6-8 weeks but we're predicting it's gonna be more like 8-10. Closer to 10."

I spoke with SoA today and they said they don't have more information for me at the moment but the wait time has been 8-12 weeks from date of order for everyone in my area.

Not I...

Second post.. last time it was in the wrong thread *smack head*

I placed my order for a dark gray metallic WRX premium on 10/12/12 at a dealer in MA. No ETA yet.

Welcome, you're new here. Go grab a drink, sit back and relax...you'll be here a while. My stay ends tomorrow morning, you can have my spot.

I never knew! I was only aware of the plastic thing. I wanted something to protect the back of the bumper if I lean against it, not the top. If I knew subaru made a cloth one I probably would've purchased it.

Me too. Waiting on that call any day.

wrxineffect2011 · 10-17-2012, 09:04 PM

So, I unsubscribed from this thread. But I missed you fools and thought I'd swing by...

...just installed my front lip spoiler, mounted my Subie rack and 1UpUSA bike racks, and had a 35% all-around tint finished today.

And I'm 100 miles from finishing the break-in.

Be patient. It's worth the wait.

So I gathered from scrolling through... Good thing I don't want to get rid of my current car. It's a 2008 Mazda Miata. The WRX is the only suitable replacement starting a family! Apparently it's illegal to strap babies to the trunk luggage rack... who knew?

jk.

I am looking forward to the WRX though, I'm just going to miss having the Miata, the RWD, the convertible. I am looking forward to the turbo and the AWD though. I figured it was time for a change and this will keep my wife happy. When did you place your order?

digitizedsoul · 10-17-2012, 09:13 PM

Mine was ordered 10/5.

This wait is leading to compulsion, insomnia, depression, alcoholism, narcotics abuse and nymphomania (poor wife)......
