I've gone with the Toyota Insurance for mine at £594 with 8 years no claims. I had other quotes from Direct Line £1200 with multi car who insure my Type-R, then was quoted £1500 by Adrian flux who insure my Impreza. I was told it being the A90 bumps up the premium quite a bit.
As for the...
So went up to my dealer today to go over a few details and was taken round to the garage under the pretense of confirming I'd be happy to see where it would be stored securely and my car was there! It had just come off the truck an hour before hand and he'd kept it a surprise.
So excited to...
Had an email this week from the Supra champion to arrange a time for me to go in to discuss delivery. I'll be asking about their attitudes to tuning as well considering the salesman himself sent me a link to the Litchfield news.
I actually had an email from my Supra Champion with a link to the news on the Litchfield tune... so i'll be asking him if they'll cover the warranty if it's tuned, you never know.
The Subaru that the Supra will be replacing is tuned to 430 and so it's something I'm seriously considering. A lot...
So i've seen that Litchfield have announced they got 420 with a remap and the potential for more with exhaust.

I was wondering if any other UK buyers are tempted by this?
I saw somewhere that Toyota said...
Only way I could see me selling my A90 soon is if they announced a full fat GRMN version in the next year or so.
I'm not sure if it'll make any difference, but i'm also keeping my A90 branded Amazon Dot and water bottle unopened to go with the car for any future collectors.
I've been told start of September although not a fixed date, more a "that's what we've heard"
I've got my 69 plate reserved already, so wouldn't be able to have my car any earlier anyway.
I was lucky enough to get an order in for an A90 edition, so matt grey.
I still haven't seen the colour in the flesh yet as they didn't have any at Thruxton or at Goodwood to see. Already been speaking to people about getting a paint protection film put on the whole thing as i've heard horror...
I'd get in touch with your local dealer as when they rang me earlier this week they mentioned the APR for the finance was on their system now. I think it was 4.something, but as not using finance, I didn't write it down.
I can't comment for other people, but the communication I've received has...
I was told that the A90 has quite a increase in premium over the 3.0 Premium due to the rarity. it's not showing on the DVLA, so they gave me an estimate based on a car in the same group. I was only speaking to Direct Line about my Civic so thought I'd ask while on. Closer to the time, i'll do...
Call from my local dealer today to say the car is showing as being built on their system now. It's still scheduled for 1st Sept.
Also had my 1st quote for insuring it, Direct Line quoted £1196 :S
My local dealership have been in fairly regular contact, although they never know much beyond what I already know and in fact seem to be using me to get info, for example after I attended the Thruxton event and Goodwood.
Still hoping for 1st September myself, can't be any earlier anyway as I've...
