The rep had sent mine back to predelivery cause he was unhappy with the tint and a minor paint blemish. Hopefully tomorrow he will tell me when it will be right to collect.

garwak Member 22 Member For: 15y 9m 24d Posted 13/03/09 12:28 AM Share Posted 13/03/09 12:28 AM Yes, picked up yesterday. This is my very first ever new car and I must say that I am very impressed. Build quality seems quite good and wow the six speed auto is very nice. I just wish they could come up with a cover to go over that ugly hole they cut in the rear bumper for the towbar.Might have to make up a polished ally one.Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hdj80 Member 76 Member For: 17y 9m 17d Posted 13/03/09 12:15 PM Share Posted 13/03/09 12:15 PM Well Tuesday for mine now at earliest really. First novated lease I have had and its a lot of dicking around. They won't pay until they get a rego and insurance cert, dealer normally doesn't register until collection day to maximise rego for new owner and I can't insure until I get a rego....round we go. Plus the flaw in the tint turns out to be a flaw in the glass, so they have had to order a new window and then it will need to be tinted.Anyway should be sorted Monday for collection Tuesday PM.Hop ethe cylcone wracks off....don't want to get it dirty driving home!

Nechromar Member 104 Member For: 15y 8m Posted 14/03/09 11:59 AM Share Posted 14/03/09 11:59 AM Been following this thread with great interest and now I am finally registered.I can write on hereOrdered my Octane ute 2 days before XmasIt arrived on 18th Feb and was ready for pick up on the 27th...The Hardlid was on back order..which I accepted..But then it came with stock XR6 wheels..My heart sank when I saw it.I Ordered it with 5 spokes but the dealer never wrote the option down..After many arguments.They made me cough up $1000 more which I was very angry about..I wanted to pay $550..which would be the rest of the XR sports pack.As it turned out..I refused to take the car.And the Hardlid turned up and was fitted.Less said about the wheel saga..Still angry about it.Ordered with technology pack.Love the bluetooth phone option...Need to buy an Ipod.Leather interior.HardLid6sp ManualPrestige AudioDid not want the 19's..so I saw no need for the Lux pack..though I wish I had the 7 inch colour screen.Maybe on the next one..Haha! So hard to choose btw octane and dash..But all the colours look so great in FG seriesFirst Impressions: Trying to run it in and be nice is so hard.Was suggested I keep it under 3000rpm for 1st 3000kms..But that is impossible.I keeping it to 4000rpm and being as nice as I can.Manual seems very notchy.But also maybe the way I drive it..Can sound clunky or very smooth.First cruise last week and man it has some legs in 6th gear..Overall I love it..As does everyone that I have showed it to..Or been for a drive in itI just want those brembo's Asap before any engine mods.
