Are you serious? Sure it wasn't just a 370z + imagination?
That doesn't sound like it was too far from their Paradise Rd office over near Algester, so seems plausible? |

i know that when i worked for a company in acacia ridge, it is in the same street where nissan main warehouse/office is and they had the leaf EV in our driveway taking photos (was the only drive way out of the whole street that had some greenery haha) this was a year ago and ev isnt realeased yet so, yeah its plausible. but yeah without a pic its hard to confirm anything

Hey guys, just letting you know one was spotted quite a while ago in Melbourne!
You'll probably need a facebook account to see the photo though as it's on the OZFT86 page https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?f...type=3&theater |

Why don't you make a thread for this in the main FR-S/GT 86 forum area - I'm sure many more would enjoy this - those who never venture into the AU regional forum. |

I got an email from Toyota on Logan Road for an update on the car pasted straight from my email that was received on Monday: "As we expected, first 86 is on the ship to Brisbane according to stock list. It takes 2 weeks in the sea." So chances are these would be very first cars to Brisbane which would most likely be the demo cars for each of the dealerships? |
