My Sport Auto in white was quite hard for the dealer to track down (this was back in January). If I had to order it, it would have been about an 8 week wait at that time, so looks like popularity may have increased.

It's interesting that there are supply issues, as the sales figures don't suggest a supply issue. It could be that there is another market the Thai factory supplies that is selling them like hotcakes and taking up our manufacturing allocation.
Thailand just launched the LZ facelift in their domestic market, so it could be that?
Speculation aside, I hope it comes down to strong demand here, because I absolutely love my car, and I would say it's worth the wait 100%.
What model are you looking at?
