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.
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...
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.
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.
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...
Hmmm I'll look into that one LFMAO, leaves more of the vent clear by the look of it but we have big plates, it will still block a big part of it I'd say.
I don't even have a drill though so not sure if I would be able to get anyone to install it for me, they wont want to drill holes in the front...
Ok cool thanks for the input guys.
I think maybe the logical thing to do is to just take the front plate off when I do track days. I'll take some cable ties with me and put it back on when I drive home.
They cable tied it to the black plastic lattice stuff Phil.
I will do the odd trackday but it wont be a regular thing.
I am back there Sat week for a one month inspection so I will definitely bring it up with them and make sure it is a safe spot to have it and I'll get them to confirm it in an...
Hi everyone, sounds like there are more cars getting close for some of you guys, exciting as!
Here are a few more pics of mine. Phil, I have included one showing the front number plate, I'm a bit paranoid about posting in social media so I have blurred it (I think)
Does anyone know if that spot...
Another quick update guys.
I havent done heaps of k's this weekend, its pretty bloody hot this week.
I did head to an autopro store and bought a set of hypersonic door guards and stuck them on to the mirror panels. It definitely made a difference to the wind buffeting, it's much better.
I also...
Hi Phil,
The front plate is cable tied in the middle section below the bumper. The plastic panel they screw in to the bumper would look terrible I think and is designed for slimline plates so I'll stick with the cable ties, it looks pretty good there actually. As long as it doesnt affect air to...
Hi JT,
The hood is closed it just isn't sitting flush, there's a big panel gap compared to the other side.
There is no driver profile set up yet, that's what I meant about setting up the sport settings. I'll be turning off lane keep assist thats for sure, really dont like the feel of that.
Well here's an update everyone......
My last post said I hadn't heard anything 7 weeks after receiving a batch number. I went back to my dealer asking for an update, he thought I would have had email updates but I only had an auto generated one saying I have a batch number now and someone else...
Hi everyone,
Anyone know if this guide is still relevant, it was a while ago now.
Are the badges still glued?
It's the first thing I want to do when my manual arrives and I'm guessing toyota wont do it for me.
Hahahaha are we nuts or what!??! :)
I have sat in a new auto version at my dealer. Quite like the interior of them, I'm a sucker for carbon fibre. It is fake apparently but it loks bloody real to me.
Wow, u have been waiting longer than me Danny.
Yes, good to see some action finally but it looks like there is still months to wait.
Really glad this is the last time I ever buy a car, dont want to go through this exercise in frustration again.
Hope it's worth it, I am still yet to drive one :)
Wow nice guys, looks like something is finally happening!
When did you both order yours?
I havent heard anything since I got a batch number about 6 weeks ago.
That is exactly what I have ordered but I dont really buy anything that the dealers are saying after this experience.
Will just wait patiently for mine to arrive.
The only contact I've had since getting a batch number was an email from a pleb saying now that I'm in the production cycle I will get updates from a different pleb.
Nothing since then which was a couple of weeks ago I think.
I'm way past impatience now, I know it is still months away so I...
