The way I see it, it gives me more time to run my old car into the ground and save by paying into the deposit

It can push out past the January 'promise' for as long as my old car runs

My car is on its last legs. Every day I pray it will start, and even it does I pray it won't stall. Hoping I can get into the new one without spending $ on it.
Sooner the better

Dealer sent me an email on the same day saying 24th sept eta.


Just waiting for it to change from Scheduled to IN production.
I have the exact same date of 29/09 online tracking eta
Ours will be on the same boat and my dealer confirmed today that mine comes off the production line 27/8 so it'll be a couple of weeks till it says in production.
The 24/9 is when the car is supposed to arrive at the dealers but he said it may come to him on the Friday before (21st) and the online tracking is being conservative with 29th as eta

Nah. The new cars just seem to crumple up even in small accidents. I have had 3 cars rear end the celica with no visible damage on my car (paint line cracks). Their cars we're $4000-$8000 fixes.

Even the front is built tough. 15cm x 15cm square beams front and back right under the square bumper skin.

Pre-ordered March 20th. Originally told July delivery, same as you.
Hey at least we still get the full sized spare!
I'll upload on here when my status changes to in production, should be the same date as yours.

21/06/12 - ordered White GTS Manual for September production/October delivery from Le mans deer park

06/08/12 - visited again for update: now November production/December delivery
