Might have something to do with the supposed extra allocation of cars?

To be fair, Toyota did say 10 July '18 months plus for a GTS' so I would lay that at your Sales person for not informing you .. We must realise there would have been a massive 'spike' both on 4 June when the price was announced and again 18 June when the 86 was released
I called in this morning and saw my Sales Consultant, nothing I can do but wait so at least I know mine should be a 2013 model not that with the 86 it will make a difference! Planning now for the HKS titanium exhaust and also 17x8 alloys that will then give me FOUR spares!! Maybe i could get another colour earlier if there is a cancellation but once I saw 'Velocity Orange' in the flesh, no way! I'm happy now to wait! Hang in there guys and gals!! |

If Toyota Australia can't negotiate allocations and predict production.... well they are a bunch of unprofessional managers and Toyota should stop advertising the car until they understand their supply chain. |

I said no point being bitchy and pushy to dealers/reps. They have a job just like most people here do. These people go oh fuck another fuckwit with an 86 on order.
Its not their fault. If I have a problem with a company, I'll let them know in a calm manner. I wont get shitty at the employees unless it is directly their doing that has caused my issues, or more issues. Not only that, I bet the CEO didn't make the decision of how many 86' to order. Now if they got the supply estimate wrong, they'd be flooded with cars that they cant get rid of, loosing thousands. If journo's didn't like the car, if they somehow messed it up completely before launch, it would be just another car on the road, and have normal demand. We only want this car for three reasons. Its actually good, its cheap and its pretty. |

My estimated pick-up got pushed back two days, to 7 November. I have been told it lands in Brisbane on the 17 October, then expected arrival at the dealer is the 31 October. Is the time they are quoting between port and dealer about right? Or are they just covering their arse?
