Are you in Hawaii?? It was first seen Feb 9th as being allocated but I haven’t done any analysis on roughly how long it takes to go from in transit to in stock. Maybe take a look at some other HI cars?

You are literally proving my point. You must have not read where the other guy stated that he was getting a bunch of msrp from out of state.
When I was working the deal on mine there was a customer from out of state trying to buy it. I was there ready to go.
I also had a deal on a gr corolla, supra and audi rs3 all of them were msrp the fl5 was just the closest to me.
All from south Florida dealers.
I guess if you drink enough cool-aid then eventually you turn into the cool-aid man lol

Congratulations. You live in Florida! This was the first region in the US to have the ADM lessen and eventually get down to MSRP. Probably due to the high volume dealers getting multiple Type R's but also maybe because of over-leveraged buyers that can no longer qualify for car loans.

I'm also in the NW and have followed the market closely since I got my car in January 2023. Most dealers up here are still asking $10-$15K ADM and are fine holding onto them in their showroom. There are probably a total of 20-30 FL5 that have sold in the state of Washington. I have never seen another in person except for when meeting others in the community.

What many people don't realize is that if you're trading something in towards the purchase you are likely getting screwed on the front end of the deal and don't realize it. In the same time period that ADM's have gone down so has trade-in value.

A dealership offered me $56k on my trade in. I sold it to GMTV for $72k. Craziness.

What do you mean by "being allocated" and yes im in Hawaii. and what does it mean to be first seen on Feb 9? Like it was seen on Japan or Dealer? or what? If the vechiles switches to " in stock" that means it already arrived right? sorry for asking so many question i appreciate for helping. Is there a way i can constantly check it without contacting the dealer? or maybe even track what vessel its at and what port is it at?

This is all nonsense, people,I went though this and 3 others when purchasing my FL5, and they were all wrong.....my advice just be patient.
