Fello turbo fans,

Let me clarify that the $1500 does apply and there are currently about 1000 packages available nationwide. If you haven't taken delivery, it still applies. Zeke, you were right, the premium sound (being a factory option) is not included. It does allow you to have an extra $1,000 worth of dealer accessories. When you consider I was already going to pay for a bonnet protector, headlight protectors and dashmat. It cost me an extra $200 for another $1000 in gear.

Also good news on the delivery front. Shipping date 29th August. This is 10 days from initial order ( because the car was pre-ordered by the dealer ). I can also let you know that they have an XR6 Turbo in phantom which is in their yard brand new due to a fallen over contract. ( opportunity for someone ????? ).

Mate,

Make sure you get a boot liner and rear loading flap to protect the rear bumper when loading the boot.

These two items will save you heaps of pain

To get back to SJW's orginal question, do we have a little checklist on "things to do once you get your new XR6T"?

(might be a good idea to compile this list as part of an FAQ)

On a sidenote, the universe works in mysterious ways. SJW and I are step-brothers, and somehow we have ordered the same car & colour without knowing what the other was doing! Freaky stuff... :alien:

Unfortunately for me, they just started building my XR6T in the factory - due in late October. But I'm sure it'll be well worth the wait. B)

The name "Lord Cyric" comes from my old uni days, when I spent a lot of time playing AD&D and computer games when I should have been studying... :thumbsup:

I have a page on my website that covers this - www.cyric.au.com. Click on "Origins" in the sidebar and have a little read about "Cyric the Mad"... :blush:

Cyric the mad would be appropriate.............

Sorry to hear about your delay Flip, I have a shipping date of 29th August from the factory, so realistically about a week after that.

Will surely let you know all about it when it arrives.

OK , back to the original intent for this thread....

I have located the following:

1. If you have premium sound ( or lucky) then you will have footwell light sockets to fit lightbulbs to and light up your feet.

2. Adding 3M clear plastic headlight film to the fog lamps will prevent stone chips and cracking and prevent $120 replacements lamps.

3. If you tell me more, then I will be very grateful. :D :thumbsup:

Anyone got any other tips ?

I saw the car today. It's in pre-delivery and is being worked on today and tomorrow for delivery late tomorrow afternoon.

Good stuff
