if they are going to but the feb doc in here they should atleast put it in there correctly!!

Says LSD is Standard not an option!

and you are talking about this timetable?


Can't wait for the pre-launch activities to start... seen none so far!

That's the one Static' lulz as my boss says "Google knows everything" hehe. Or your dealer did a naughty :P Like it matters now in all honesty, that doc was leaked months ago though not in it's entirety that i knew of. Yes i know what you mean about those elusive prelaunch activities... i haven't seen any either - just the training notification. Gotta say though i have already personally approached TMCA via our area rep' to put on a drive day for clients at one of our local racetracks - he said it was an excellent idea but unfortunately though whilst they would support it for sure, they wouldn't pay for it.

I don't mind, 15 bucks for test drive at local racing track + BBQ lunch HAHAHA! But seriously, it would be a good thing, to meet up with all the other 86 fans and possibly meet up with peeps from this forum.

Local racetrack, which local racetrack is this? Eastern Creek?

if it is Eastern Creek....

Toyota have the Bates twins, Ryan Smart and John Allen ... all with genuine Toyota motorsport relevancy and all brilliant drive day instructors. It would be a piece of cake for them to do something like what they did with the last Celica. I tested that at Mt Cotton over a decade ago. Shame the car was so pathetic.

there were 2 things that I am concerned about after reading that.

1) 'Wheels' speculated on the price of $38k for entry level (sorry if i'm bringing the price subject in) if that is the case GTS would probably be approx $44-$45K on road, I'm going to pull out if it's true.

2) LSD is optional I forgot to ask for it >.<" does that mean i'll be dropped to the back of the line and which = wait till next year?


I'm gonna wait it out, see what happens when the day arrives,aye?

I just read this.. it would be cool if the price was what was written

Australian customers will more likely pay $25,000 for the base model while limited edition BRZs starts at $27,000.
