I placed an order for a new Toyota Corolla hatchback in June, and i was told it would be 8-12 months. No deposit was necessary, and i still really want the car, but i dont want to receive it in winter, preferably April or so.

I’m getting my car wrapped when i receive it, and would like to get it undercoated. I plan on taking care of it right from the get go, and don’t want to immediately get it covered in salt before doing so. I would also like to enjoy my, likely to be, only ever brand new car i will ever purchase before it has to endure the canadian winter.

If i contact my salesman and ask him to delay it, how is that gonna go? Will i just be removed from the list and put back on another time, or will i just be skipped on the new cars till april comes around then be at the top of the list then?
