Thanks! Now I can stop being hyper focused on when to get a new car, which car to get , how much to pay, where to buy, and just begin learning how to drive my new TCH to get the most out of it. I can hardly wait for tomorrow when we go pick up my new Barcelona Red TCH with all sorts of fun options I've never had before!!!

 

After six months of waiting for my special ordered Japan Camry, I was given a Kentucky build VIN number. The dealer told me back in November that the Japan plant accepted my order.

 

I still can't believe how long you had to wait . My car was built in Japan and arrived at the dealer in less than 6 weeks. As mentioned previously I custom ordered it...Not sure if this is true throughout the USA but I was told that custom orders are being built in Japan and stock orders are being built in Kentucky. Did you question the discrepancy? Any word on when you will get the car?

 

I questioned the salesperson and he told me he did not recall the importance of ordering it from Japan. Needless to say, I wish I had your dealer. How much did you wind up paying?

 

MSRP was $30900 and I paid just under $28200

When is your car coming in?

 

I ordered my TCH on 1/27/07 and I just found out it should be here between 3/28 and 4/3. It is being built in Kentucky and I as far as I have been told they are fully ramped up.

 

You better camp out in a tent at your dealer's driveway starting the 28th in order to jump on it before the tax credit get cut in half, again.

 

But if purchased after the tax cut, I bet the purchase price could be adjusted. I would demand it for such a long wait, and a price reduction is guaranteed money in your pocket, but the tax credit might not be (see the AMT issue).

I toured the Kentucky plant, and would be proud to own a USA Camry Hybrid.

 

I have too, and I am!

 

I've been driving my black TCH for 1 week and 1 day now. Absolutely love it.

I contacted my dealer in Kansas and they we able to locate a black one with nav. It took them 3 days to find and get it. The dealer had to do a trade from Nebraska to Kansas. It had a little over 300 miles on it. I asked for a specs sheet where they list all the standards options and accessories installed. On the sheet, there is also an invoice date and ship date for the dealer. The invoice date was 12/30/06 and ship date was 1/4/07. So, the car has been with the dealer for 2 months. However, it has a Japan VIN and still in perfect condition.

Still, I was really pleasaed with the dealer and the deal they gave me with my trade-in. And I need to get it before the 3/31 tax credit cut.

I'm very sure you'll love and enjoy driving your new TCH.
