86 Pre-Launch Brochure

Hi all, we just received our first batch of pre-launch brochures, so if anyone in Australia would like an 86 Pre-Launch Brochure sent to them please email me andrew.smith@peterwarren.com.au and i will do my best to get it to you as soon as possible.

The brochure contains some excellent exterior pic's of an overseas Velocity Orange 86, references some info on Toyota's past AE86 and Toyota 2000GT and confirms some of the technical spec's.

As always, please feel free to contact me by phone:
02 9828 8948 or 0406 237 776.

Cheers,
Andrew Smith

I always catch my train from and to Warwick Farm.

I always glance pass the car stock yard LOL! to check if I spot an 86 hiding somewhere.

No offense meant but i couldn't give 2 rats ass's what overseas 86 looks like.

We already know what overseas looks like

I/We want Oz stuff.

This whole holding back and releasing everything at once has already lost many potential sales and isn't winning anymore.

This price better be nothing short of spectacular, that's all i have to say.

I agree, i would rather see a local car in the pic's but we gotta take what we are given from TMCA. By the way i am going to make a digital copy of the brochure for people, just might take me a day or so and most likely it is the same as the one or similar to the one on the Toyota Website.

So email me andrew.smith@peterwarren.com.au and i'll send it off to you ASAP.

Why take your frustrations out on Andrew?? he doesn't work for TMCA.. He is a salesperson (and usually people whinge about sales people) trying to do the right thing by US. he is the exception to most rules.
The way you guys are carrying on he should jsut give up and give us all the bird.
Some people can't be pleased. We all want info and price and cars, but hey, guess waht?? We won't know anything more for a couple of weeks, so get over it!
Why si everyone so impatient?
Andrew, I for one appreciate you going above what you need to and at least trying.
Thank you.

We're impatient and frustrated because we are trying to give Toyota 30-40k, but they don't seem to care. Also, as someone who put faith in Toyota not to screw me but putting down a deposit, I'm starting to feel betrayed.

I wonder if the price is already set in stone - or if they are still bickering over what it should be. The AUD falling against the Yen is not helping our cause

I want to give Toyota the same amount of cash as everyone else. They do care, but they have processes to follow for a new model launch. Which si fair enough. We released a new model recently and there was no prciing released until jsut before the launch either.
Deal with it.
Also, your reasons don't answer why you are taking frustration out on someone who IS NOT A TMCA EMPLOYEE.?????

I'm not taking my frustration out on anyone.
