2017 BRZ Quarantined :(

Yep, my new baby is stuck in a shipping crate in Port Melbourne in quarantine! Time has slowed to a standstill. Hopefully it's released before Christmas.

I'm crossing my fingers that it's got 100kg of cocaine in the door cavities!

Well, that sucks. Do they wait to see if it comes down with any strange disease?

Possibly radiation checks? Isn't that what created the Godzilla skylines?

God forbid a giant fire-breathing eight six trample Melbourne. You would have to rebuild.

Melbourne Again

Melbourne Identity?

Melbourne Supremacy?

Dynamat is much more effective at sound deadening and won't add as much weight to the vehicle. Trust me on this one, mate.

We regularly watch the Australian customs agents busting drug runners at the airports on reality TV. There's plenty of coke in Australia already.

Where is the car coming from that it needs to be placed on hold? They are probably backlogged doing inspections and so they consider 3-4 weeks a reasonable delay.

"All" of them? Three at most, unless they are taking turns riding in your car!

Thanks for updating!

Good Luck!

You know, I'd imagine for Godzilla that stepping on cars would feel a lot like stepping on Legos for us.
