^ Congrats! I'm literally foaming in anticipation for mine now.

Anyone else with a similar delivery date (13/03) have any idea what ship their car is on?

I rang TMCA, but they said that they don't have those details. My dealer said the only person who could tell me is away, and will be back later next week.

Looking at the K-Line vessels, the one it looks likely to be may be the Bishu Highway... It left Yokohama on the 13th, and my car updated to 'in transit' on the 12th, and it's the only one scheduled to come to Adelaide. (supposedly arriving on the 2nd March).

If the car spends a week in customs/dealer fitout, that could potentially be it?

It can move back or forward - I assume with that the car has still to be built - mine came off the line 26/12 and to me 14/2 so 51 days, others take a little less and given where you are

At first mine showed 8/2 and then moved back to 11/2 and stayed there and WAS delivered that day

That happens to most, some have actually come forward up to 10 days from that first shown

As soon as the car is loaded in Yokohama your tracking will update almost immediate! When yours shows 'on ship' ring TMCA then and they can tell you, otherwise you could be following the WRONG ship!! Easy to assume but some weeks 3-4 can leave there for here, some bypass Townsville and some bypass Brisbane, depends what's loaded - not all Toyotas!

It's a military nick to me 'Private AJ' but thanks!! Just Army Bases at both Enoggera Q and Wagga Wagga NSW, I wasn't in the Army but lived at both places

Have to go back pick up one of my MX5's tomorrow, cause I took it yesterday to pick up the 86, so another 350km or so of settling it in and will report the fuel economy when I get back - then off to Lakeside Park to watch 'Time Attack', four 86's ran at QR 2 weeks ago so hope they are there having a run tomorrow
