Well said. Better yet, post the details of your car so someone else here can purchase it if you don't want it.

are you serious ? all of this over a spare wheel.. Cmon folks lets be realistic

for starters TMCA surprised us with the price of this car, from memory everyone was over the moon on June the 4th when pricing was announced and now all of sudden you are all bagging TMCA over a spare wheel ??? I can not believe the amount of junk in this thread seriously.

Lets be a little more mature about how we can deal with this, if you are really concerned speak to your dealer about options that you may have. I am sure they will be able to do something in terms of compensating for the spare

ps: I am not associated with TMCA or work at the dealers and yes I am also affected with this spare wheel issue but I just want the car sooner thats all I care about

Umm wasn't it anything after September build that doesn't have it.

I'm not convinced Surok will be getting his car before September though. He ordered same time as me from just down the road. Similar order bank. Justin's car will get pushed too but I think he already knew that.

haha so many tools on here.

Bawwwww i want a factory spare, its not fairrrrrr... why'd you take my lolly off me.

Get over it.. if you dont want to rely on a repair kit then as many others have said.. either:

1. Buy a subie space saver off ebay for under $100
2. Buy aftermarket rims and use a factory as a spare.
3. Buy someone elses rim(s)/tyre(s) because realistically there's going to be a tonne of them on ebay as soon as people start going for aftermarket rims.
4. Buy a basic steel rim from any wreckers/tyre shop for dirt cheap and put a tyre on it... hell it wont look pretty but its a SPARE.
5. CANCEL YOUR ORDER - BUT FOR THE LOVE OF GOD JUST DO IT AND FK OFF THE FORUM AND STOP TELLING US ABOUT IT
