Seriously, why is White the most popular colour? I almost didn't see one the other day in the shopping centre car park cos it just blends in with everything else ! Oh & it was kinda small n low in comparison too

I still have no word from dealer or TMCA.

Don't care if it was Dec 2012 build (which mine is) or Jan 2013 build. you get the car a month sooner and it has NO bearing on resale. Technically all cars delivered to end of june 2013 are 2013 models (FY13 ).

Glad I am finally going to get my beastie. Now it is time to look at selling my first love 8 years with my 300zx, it is going to be hard to let go

Cmooooooon Jan build please please please please please I've waited this long I can wait another month for 2013 build!

Dealer called me last week and said its looking like a Jan build. So hopefully these new cars just help with the current crop of it.

Negative.

The 86's and BRZ's are complied for Australia at the factory before they leave Japan. Thus making them 2012 Built/ 2012 Complied.

One of the only cars i know that is done this way. If you want confirmation ask any member who already has a car to compare their build and compliance plate dates.
