Just got a call from Galleria Toyota.... My car being built this month has been pushed back to an unknown date next year...

I am not happy at all and cancelled my order but i have already waited so long im just going to accept it and keep waiting.....

Pauline my sales chick said they got word Monday evening.....

I spat the dummy obviously asking how can they allocate then say global demand has caused it but whats the point... Its falling on deaf ears really....

I got a good deal on my Aero.... I leave for Japan in November so now i have $40grand for parts which does make me happy.....

I truly hope u guys dont receive the same call.... Its so f*kn poor IMO....

Good luck..... :(

that is piss poor, you ordered ages ago didnt you?

Bounce 09-05-2012 01:51 AM

I got this call 2 weeks ago... And I was in the first 10 people to order at my dealer...

BRAWL 09-05-2012 01:52 AM

I am a very patient man. I know mine will be lucky to be here mid next year when originally told January. More time to save and/or buy goodies for when it arrives :)

FT-86GOD 09-05-2012 02:01 AM

Yeah very early... I was 3rd to order through Galleria......

Hook 09-05-2012 02:02 AM

No!!!!!

Ahh well I've waited 4 months allready and was expecting another 4 or 5 month wait anyway.

like Lazy said, it gives me more time to save.

Going to piss off a lot of people if its state wide.

Sorry to hear that bro. But having a go at Pauline wont help, that's purely shooting the messenger.

Unfortunately Toyota Japan have Aussie customers over a barrel. They will sell any and every unit they ship here and most people are prepared to wait, just as you are, despite the inconvenience.

I can't believe Toyota Australia is happy with their allocation. They are in business to make money and they will know full well that they would make more money if they had lead times on par with US let alone stock in dealerships.

Wait Awhile..

It's all about your location! :P

but that seriously does suck.. i am over this waiting, and my wait hasn't really been that long.

Raz555 09-05-2012 02:14 AM

Sorry to hear. What date did you order? Manual I'm guessing.

It's a double lottery it seems, as we not only have the long wait for the GTS manuals, it seems how many your dealer sold before yours comes into play :-(

Ours was ordered June 18th and I don't think we will see it this year

dangerfield 09-05-2012 02:19 AM

Sorry to hear man, that sucks balllllss :(

You could try tracking down a GT or something from another state?

BRAWL 09-05-2012 02:21 AM

The more people that get impatient and pull their order, the sooner we all get ours.

Have so far bought a Beatsonic Shark Fin Antenna, Grimspeed Oil Cap (122 of 140) and Gimmick Hood Struts. Will probably buy my wheel choice (Wedssport TC105N 17x8) soon also :S

I love this car! ;)

everytime I see WA, I think of Washington State :)

Suffa 09-05-2012 02:32 AM

Why is this isolated to WA?

GaN-MaN 09-05-2012 02:52 AM

TMCWA... U suck. Sincerely, everyone in WA...

I ordered mine from Big Rock and from what I've been told, they're still yet to get a single GTS but from what I was told at New Town, they've already delivered about 20...
This doesn't make sense at all.
