Wait time? The day I bought, I was choosing from 10 unspoken-for-cars in two dealerships about 15 miles apart. That didn't count the two SSB demos the owner and his son of one dealership were using on a daily basis.

Those same dealerships continue to have, between them, 8 to 10 on their collective lots on any given day.

AND one of them is selling new 6 speeds for $29995.

Don't know where your friend is, but that discount would more than offset air fare...
