I think what you and I are experiencing right now is the tip of the GOAT Rodeo iceburg.

If it makes you feel better, I was a special case. They wouldn't even think about it except I had talked to them a lot about my manual driving history already, and I'd put an order that was in transit. They knew I understood break in periods and had a ton of experience driving manuals. The Mrs...

I swear I only put 6 of those on and the salesman was there with me. I’m picking up my car there in a week or so.

Oh holy shit, I test drove your car a couple of weeks ago. I babied the shit out of her, so no worries there. Beautiful car

Good looking car!

For those of us who want to fly under the radar, that's a perk.

A couple of videos I've watched suggest pouring an extra quart of oil through the engine once you've drained it to flush out as much old oil as possible, so that might help while using the ramps. It's probably overkill to some extent, but I'll probably do it because I plan on having this car for...

Awesome, which size Race Ramps did you buy?

This was super interesting & informative, thank you for passing it along!

You just decided you wanted the V8 pretty badly, right?

Coming from a Subaru Forester (had to sell my WRX in '20 when I moved to the city), the LF4 is going to be a wild ride for me. I'll have a smidge of V8 envy, and maybe down the road I'll buy a used 5BW to add to the collection.

Maybe I’ll give them a call to see how low they would go, beautiful spec!

I'd be curious to hear from someone who has driven both hard how the 5BW corners vs the 4BW. I've been unconsciously assuming the 4BW was more elegance and the 5BW was more beast.

Wow! That's great, hopefully mine will leave the lot the same day as yours.

This is ultimately why I chose to order. I could probably negotiate a price down to the mid $70's, but that's nearly $9K over the price I'm getting for the '25 that I ordered with the things I actually care about.

Hilariously I think it's actually easier to find deals on the '24 5BW vs. the '24 4BW right now. There just aren't many manual 4's on the market that aren't the grossly overpriced special versions or the $90K optioned cars (if my budget were that high I'd just spend a bit extra to get the 5BW)...

Still waiting, I've been told 2nd half November. I'm getting antsy

Can you really? None of the sedans are listed in the fine print.

Car is listed as "in transit" by the chatbot. To this point have not received a note from my dealership yet, and I don't see it listed online anywhere quite yet.

For what it’s worth, I finally got to test drive the manual yesterday as the dealer I go to had one come in. Holy shit. Last month or so of waiting is going to be killer.
