Places in sydney to have a look?

Just wondering if any dealers have gotten a demo yet in Sydney? Im really keen on getting one but i would really like to see one and test drive one if possible before making a purchase? So just wondering who here lives around sydney got to have a look at one in person and at which dealers?
Thanks!

^No I was told Lander Toyota will be handing the demo back to TMCA today - not sure where it's going now. It's a red GT manual that they had on display over the weekend.

Most (if not all) dealers should have a demo by this weekend. Just give them a buzz on Saturday and you should be able to see one.

^^^^^ what he said ^^^^... it was not a demo... it was a press car from the canberra press event...

I was told they were handing it back today. I had a look at it on sunday. They only gave test drives to people that have a deposit with Lander toyota.

As i said in a previous thread on a similar topic, we will still offer test drives to serious buyers without a deposit as soon as we receive a demo car which i will announce in the forums.

I wanted to register both but unfortunately i don't think we''l be able to keep our black auto GT unsold for long. We've gone with a manual because the manuals are outselling the autos about 10-1 from what i've seen so far.

We might be able to get our hands on one, we'll see after release. if you want me to follow it up for you just flick me an email to andrew.smith@peterwarren.com.au and i'll see what can be done. Usually most dealerships register autos as demos usually due to the belief that the salespeople will thrash the cars if they're manuals, sometimes that's true but not always.
