The Official Australian WAITING FOR MY SUPRA Thread

[GRSoup]

Thanks mate. It's increasingly looking like this is (for the moment at least) a Victorian issue because of that stupid new pre-delivery centre.

That makes me sad.

It's done now hahahaha.

But man the colour is fire

I've also put a request in with my dealer in Vic to have mine delivered without the plates, and I'm currently waiting to hear back from them speaking to Toyota. Maybe if enough of us make noise the new centre will change their tune

All the best for the rest of you that are receiving it.

My dealer emailed them daily and I was told that they didn't do anything to the car, could be a lie hahaha

Hi all,

I picked up my 2023 MT Azure Blue GR Supra today, yay.

My licence plate was installed onto the car when I picked it up.

I was told that the pre-delivery didn't touch the car at all. Bugger.

Looking at this again - they didn't even drill the rear for the numberplate (you have to drill it into the plastic) and almost ALL the factory protective covers are there (nosecone missing)

I am not sure this helps, but one can only hope!

Here is my QLD dealer's response. Hopefully it does not become an issue down the line.

I am optimistic we can beat this in Victoria too but it's just going to take some ruffling of feathers.. which just so happens to be one of my specialized skill.

Yeah, I've been bumped to Wednesday next week now. I am beginning the nag haha.

Good luck to the owners getting their cars soon!!

On an Australian Facebook group, it seems there's been at least one Victorian car delivered in April without the number plate mount affixed. I'm going to make some calls during the week to see where things are at. It looks like my dealer maybe just isn't aware that it can be done.

My dealership came back with "we are the only dealership not using the pre-delivery service" so with any luck it'll come numberplate holder free

I got this email this morning.

I've asked for clarification, but hopefully that means Toyota HQ has pushed the change down the line.

I had a dream it was delivered with the plate screwed in, and I just left the car there a few days

I'm going to lose my shit if it comes with holes in the bumper to be honest. The more I think about it, the more I want to just defect the car and buy something else, if anything, on general principle.

I have a daily so I'm not desperate for a car and the request isn't exactly unusual or difficult.

Also, got a link to the FB group?

Hope it goes well. Once we all have our Supras we should all catch up and go for a decent drive - I think we've all earned it!
