....it's not just WA.

I've been pushed back again too (here in NSW). I WAS a "September build, October delivery", got pushed back and now...

I've been told that I'm first on the list at my Dealer for a White GTS MT, but 40th in the state. Apparently there's only 7 of these per month coming in, so add another 6 months to the 4 I've been waiting since I ordered.

D'oh!

"Unlike the eastern states, Toyota WA is designated as an independent distributor. Hence, WA customers do not get access to the order tracking system unfortunately.
We’ll just have to do it the old fashioned way."

Apparently here in Vic people putting down deposits now are being quoted a 18 - 19 month delivery on GTS models :-/

Well sorry to hear that, it really sucks how we are being shafted in aus. Toyota says in their system it show my estimate build date as 11/12 and id like to see it by jan/feb 13 so fingers crossed. GTS MT btw, July order.

Oh man I was told that I'm 7th in line at Galleria Toyota. Damn...Now I really cant sell my current car. I'll have to hold onto it until I find out when my 86 will be built. That could be next year I guess.

That sucks, sounds like a Toyota WA issue. I am so glad I cancelled my order and just rang around until I landed one.

That's crap! This really sux! And unallocated cars are being sold on carsales!
Toyota is really loosing grip of this whole situation, they need to have a closer look at how they are handling this allocation, it's getting beyond a joke!

Think I am about 9th or so at Prosser Toyota. Part of me actually wants those that ordered before me to get theirs first, but I won't turn them away if I get mine now

My dealer told me a few weeks ago that he cant guarantee that I'll get it this year, but can guarantee I'll get it by July next yea.
So a year long order, from when I orignally was told Oct build date.
Yay.

On the plus side. I get a 2013 built car. And my new car will come when my new house is built so has somewhere warm to sleep at night.
