Awesome Sun, glad you're diggin it too!
Yeah that sounds cheap as Danny, not much more than I paid for my GT!
We get screwed in WA, was $98k driveaway for my GT Azure blue with carbon fibre mirror caps......think our stamp duty is higher here.
Got the 1 month free inspection at my dealer tomorrow, just ticked over 1,000 k's so getting closer to some real revvin

Tell me about it! It’s so bad that I regularly dream that I’m driving in it… a bit obsessive at this stage..

A quick question for those who already got the car, notices the "Toyota" word badge on trunk hood was back on my 2023 white supra (think only the first batch in 2019 have them ) does anyone else with MY2023 supra also got the work badge back on.

 

[Snakes70]

Sunraiser, do you mean the lame badge above the supra badge?
Yes mine had it and I got rid of it with some dental floss and a bit of eucalyptus oil for the residual sticky. Was really easy to do and totally worth it.
I'll post some pics when I get home and can blur my number plate out.

Ya you got it, also I got back from my dealer that other MY23s have it as well, kinda strange that toyota must need to spend some money to put that badge back there and took us extra effort to take it off XD. Just removed mine, but very strange as I see no point for toyota doing it...

 

[Snakes70]

Hi Sunraiser, here's a before and after shot.
They refused to take it off too, might damage the paint they said lol....if I can do it anyone can, they just didn't want to.

Apparently its something to do with Toyota losing the trademark to "Supra" everywhere other than the US, so they have to label it "Toyota Supra." ?‍

All AU spec Supras got the 'Toyota' Badge - from 2019 on

 

[MA617M]

Sounds like a great deal as well. Looks like we are all getting around the same ball park figures. Congrats to you as well mate.

Cheers mate.

I got the accessories for free and a $2500 dealer discount, because it's not my first A90 through these guys. They've been ace to deal with.... Also haven't even put a deposit on, yet mine is still on the boat... Due in Freo on 24th Mar.

 

[Snakes70]

Oh yeah getting close now MA617M.
Assume you're in Perth talking about Freo?
Who is your dealer, sounds like u have had a lot better run with them than I have with mine. Even now with the car they are still clueless. Got her booked in for 12.30 this avo for the 1 month inspection, I get a text yesterday saying your car is booked with us at 8am.
The girl I was dealing with says ignore the text it is definitely 12.30.
I wont be surprised if I get there this avo and they say u were booked for 8am, we cant do it now you're too late.
I'm still waiting for an email invite to join the GR Club too.

 

[wilorichie]

I've been transmitted too lmfao. That is A10 status.

That just means it's past the original order stage of A00. It isn't in production yet, but they are planning to get it onto the production lines soon.

It isn't a definite thing.

But if it progresses to A20 (next stage), that is when Toyota then give dealerships an ETA for arrival to the dealership. That's when it's down to business. I reckon in 1 month, ask for another update. It probably means you are scheduled for the April production (which I just got for mine last week).

Fingers crossed now - seems we are both in A10... COMMEEEE OONNN FACCTOORRYYY!!!

Nah, I'm in Vic - Freo was the next port while tracking the ship.

My dealer (sales) has been excellent. Even let me take out the GR Yaris for an hour, knowing I wasn't going to buy it.

My dealer (service) has been fucking dreadful.

 

[Snakes70]

Ahhh gotcha MA, Freo is just a pitstop then.
I'm still at the dealer waiting for my car after the free 1 month inspection, been nearly 3 hours now. About 10 mins to go apparently.
It is pretty busy here tho in their defence.
