Why buying a car is like building a house in 2021!
In 2021, buying a car is like building a house! It takes time…
If you’re in the market for a new car, you’re probably aware of the delays many guests are facing when it comes to taking delivery of their new vehicles. A global shortage in semiconductors and a significant increase in demand has meant that delays are stretching out to months across some of our most popular Toyota models!
But what can you do to get on the road sooner?
Well, the short answer is that people need to get in the queue by placing an order. Unfortunately, the longer that guests delay, the longer it will be before we can deliver your new car.
“To manage guest expectations, it’s important for our customers to know that the day of walking into our showroom, buying a car and taking delivery within a week is just not our reality right now. We’re comparing buying a car to building a house, because that’s essentially what we need to do. Customers should be planning 1-6 months ahead, as Toyota need to build your car from the ground up due to limited local supply”
Due to the significant increase in demand, the majority of stock that is arriving at Sunshine Toyota is sold before it gets here. However we have made sure to keep demonstrator models on-site for guests to test drive.
