Just be glad you don't have to pay what we are going to pay here ! Also our finance rates here are not too flash either. House prices, home loan rates. Need I go on, kill me now.

86 all the way. So glad they kept it as the 86 here.

Just surprise us Toyota aust. With a great price. !!!!

Hey, do you recall if that car had WHITE side indicator/reflectors or AMBER ones?

Thanks

From the spotted thread they all had clear(white) indicators looked at this yesterday

I stopped by the Kewdale holding yard last night but couldn't see squat. There are a lot of cars there and it was dark though

I imagine they are being kept out of sight...

Since we seem to be calling it names it isn't, why not call it Celica? There was early speculation that it would be called celica......

U should start a new thread all about it. LOL...

pr0j · 05-22-2012, 08:50 AM

if memory serves, I think I had said at one point something like 'I think it should just be 86, its simple and elegant' then lo and behold... wooo! I helped!

sirus · 05-22-2012, 08:51 AM

So... Now I'm wondering why I haven't heard anything from my dealer... :/

FT-86GOD · 05-22-2012, 09:17 AM

Because there here for press i guess then public will see just before the release date.... And most dealers know F-all about the car.... Im gonna probably get mine from Perth dealership... Atleast that dude Carlo knew something about why a few may have hit Perth cause hes getting one and keeping up to date, so he says.... But even he was surprised to hear the press ones had already arrived, so he says.....

Wish i got a photo just to give the thread a bit more oomph.... Sorry Boys....

Was so much to take in all at once.... Was crazy, as soon as i seen it i knew it was the 86... My first proper thought after everything was damn that thing needs to be slammed..... Ride height was typically high...

I reckon our best chance to see it is at Barbagallo but the sneaky buggers will probably have a private day...

Im guessing that was that Carlo dude?

City Toyota is who i got in touch with after Melville Toyota claimed no one at Toyota knew anything in W.A..........
