VICTORIANS!

Ok since there's individual state threads, i guess i'll create one and leave this open discussion for 86's specifically to victoria.

I've ordered my 86 - white pegasus base model GT. haven't heard anything from my dealer since i placed the order in february apart from them conducting training on the 86 in april.

Seems like there have been spottings in QLD and NSW but none in VIC..

Wondering what's happening here..

Hopefully we shall see some pop up soon in the next week or two or three. Really excited but kind of getting over the fact that no further details have been released. Price is still under speculation as well as release dates, drive away dates, launch dates etc.

COMN TOYOTA... You got alot of attention right now just release it already!

Ordered my Blue GT back in March. My girlfriend said her father has seen a couple parked around the airport (He works near the freight area) and he's gonna try and get some photos for me.

The Victorian outlet of TMCA will most likely be doing the same thing they are doing in NSW at the moment - driving the cars around in an awareness campaign prior to launch on the 18th.

I drive around a few hours a day across Melbourne. I am yet to spot one. I guess they should start popping up next week.

I'm heading to Melton to check it out. If they don't have it, I'll call up kyenton, Essendon Airport and Werribee.

If anyone does find one tomorrow, post it up here.

I happened to spy a Black GTS 86 cruising down the Calder Hwy this arvo. It was heading towards Melbourne about 3pm. I was driving and it was going 110km/h the opposite direction, so no pic's ... Kicking Myself !!

It didn't seem as small as some reports have made it out to be.
