I messaged him on Facebook about his Aus visit and he told me he was in Hong Kong.

Smellytofu, I have seen your name at other forums many years ago....

Yes I received an invite. Actually declined... Hanging out with a bunch of car dealers all in the same location can be tiring...

Only a few more days till the cars arrive...

very disapointed that customers that have already pre-ordered be invited, let alone didnt even get a chance to go into a draw to win a ticket to the event.

Well i guess when you think of it.. Why invite people that have already ordered, there is nothing more to sell.

Is this event taking place in Canberra at the Sutton road driver training centre ?

Its going to be a wet sunday and monday down here which might ruin the days unfortunately. Although it might give me a chance to pop out there to see what i can see !!

It's a press launch isn't it, not a customer event?
