23 October moved to 'Planned Production December' 23 November moved to 'Scheduled for Production December' and a 'build date was provided by my Dealer of 21/12 28 December moved to 'In production' and car was off the line 26/12 31 December Dealer informed car in transit to Yokohama for loading on ship 15 January moved to 'In transit to Australia' and TMCA advised when I rang it was on 'Grand Mark' [you can satellite track by entering ships name in google] 15 January 'Grand Mark' departed Japan due Townsville Friday 25/01 22 January 'Grand Mark' currently in Solomon Sea' east of PNG Car is due to me 12 February but this can move either back or forward a week or so So from 'Planned for Production' took around 10-11 weeks from that until when I should have it Hope this assists, let me know if any more info required, BUT YOURS IS NOW SO CLOSE!! For a practice run, google 'Grand Duke Ship', click on 'current location' then when map comes up click top right on 'satellite'. This ship is now almost into Townsville to unload, it's also a 'Ro-Ro' car carrier Add a few days from TVL to Brisbane, then Brisbane to Port Kembla!! |

![]() Not heard from for 7 days - Somali pirates? Actually it's finally reached the Coral Sea and due Townsville Friday, but I think they may have some trouble docking with the weather, 'Grand Duke' is sitting off Magnetic Island all day and yesterday was just going round in circles!! Captain being towed on a rubber tube? Ski rope caught around the prop? |

Me! Expected delivery on the 19th. Ordered 21st July, GTS auto in Tornado Grey. Can't wait is an understatement. Already ordered the little BRZ-style spoiler (not sure of the proper name) and an 86 armrest from eBay. Armrest arrived today. |

I'd say for Sydney/NSW people, add another 2/3 days, not sure if there is another ship following 'Grand Mark' but the 'Grand Duke' is a day in front of 'GM'. Your Dealer should be able to tell you the name of the ship, otherwise ring TMCA 1800-252-097 and then go to the following link: http://www.marinetraffic.com/ais/dat...a=A&level0=200 On the left, enter the ship's name and in the box below hit the drop-down box and click on 'Cargo' then hit 'search Below is same site showing expected arrivals in Brisbane, both 'GD' due 10pm Sunday and 'GM' 6am Monday http://www.marinetraffic.com/ais/dat...ode=&B1=Search Hope this assists you in following the progress of your 86!! |
