Congats fitzknits! Did you get the colour and package you ordered?Screeeeech! I finally received a VIN# and an estimated delivery of August 15th - almost 24 weeks after the order went in. OMG, I don't know to stop grinning.
For some of us, the ship is coming in
YOW - I think that is why I waited so long - I held out for my first choices.
Tonic - You are getting an f-sport? Too cool! You will probably have one of the first in Canada and some of the first pics of an f-sport in the snow. Did you choose the blue?
I would have considered the f-sport but I have had enough of waiting.
Still grinning.

I can't be 100% certain but I test drove the Canadian premium model and that was the one I wanted but didn't want to wait so bought the showroom model that was a touring. But I swear the stereo in the premium was way better sounding than what's in my touring. Just thought I would mention that in case you haven't compared the quality if that kind of thing matters to you. The Canadian Premium dowes have a subwoofer and the tourning doesn't.
Do you know if it will have a little bit more equipment in the 2012 model? I'll probably get that one too, but I want the Technologie package and curious to see what the F-sport package will include. If it's only estetic, I'll probably don't go with it... I see it from here, my friends will say "What the hell is that, F-Sport, with no power", sound ridiculous.
you guys confirmed that canadians will get the fsport for 2012?
i put deposit down for 2011, they cant get it, and i am now waiting for the technology pkg for 2012, but if they have fsport, i may just go for that one, that one may come with the electric folding mirrors, and a little more...

Yeah i wish the Touring édition would come with the better sound system
If I make the move from my Prius I'm gonna loose many features ( LED low beam, good sound system backing up camera.....) to be in the Lexus but so far the wait is really frustrating me........ I might wait one more year instead and get better deal and more choice anyway the Lexus drive nice and better build but there is also negative side next to the Prius when it's come to space and utility. But the car looks so much better!!!!
We will see!

Fitz,
It looks like my car was sharing the voyage with your car. My car should be ready for pickup on August 11th. Matador Red Mica CT with Canadian Premium Package.
Woo Hoo!!
oof, been too busy to check the forum for two days...
YOW - That's great! I thought you might hear about the same time.
About the sound system - I didn't get a chance to compare between trim levels and I really didn't want leather seats (makes me wish we had choices like in the US). I am not to bothered if the system is not up to snuff because - if I stay in love with the CT- I will trade up to the CT300h when it comes out. A couple of years with this one should let me know exactly which options I want to add/am willing to pay for.

It's tough
The Premium Package costs just about $5000 more that the touring package. That's a lot! It does come with a large number of additional features. For us, the premium audio, driver seat memory, rain sensing wipers and rear backup-up camera made the package worth the price. The good news for you is the anticipated resale value of the car has gone up considerably since the car was first released in March. It should be worth a lot if you're going to trade it in a couple of years.

Congrats! I love the brown and beige colour combination. We put that in as our second choice.
Congrats from me too. I saw that colour combination at the auto show - they look good together.
Just made my deposit last night; starfire pearl, tech, ivory
He showed me the ordering tool they use to check the statuses; he told me to expect a 4-6month wait but said they just started getting August delivery dates for July production. He said i'd likely get a 2012.
So, not sure if that is worth anything considering the length of the waiting lists, but it seems things are picking up on the line to him.
