F6 RAPID Formerly Turbo6 Donating Members 2,332 Member For: 22y Location: North Brisbane Posted 22/01/03 03:32 AM Share Posted 22/01/03 03:32 AM I had to tell someone seeing as though I have been reading about all these good luck stories about you guys getting your cars earlier than you originally thought.I was in line to take delivery of my xr6t ute in early March (read between the promised lines!).I spoke with my dealer before to arrange something else on the car when he informs me that he was speaking to a customer that was due to take delivery of his ute in Feb but said he could not take it now until late March. So guess who has moved up the queue?? The only real difference in our orders was the colour - he ordered Blueprint, I want Citric Acid. Now my dealer is ringing Ford to get the colour changed and I am in business, earlier than once thought! Mid Feb delivery!! Pics when it arrives I promise. :D :D :D Miracles DO happen!!!!!!

I was in two minds. Blueprint was my first choice and they allowed Citric Acid available on the xr's and I really wanted something different. Oh well, at least you won't miss it! And it should be the only one driving around the north side of Brisbane for some time!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You guys will be amongst the first, I promise!One of my options is a motorcycle tie down kit. Why? Do you want the 520 in the back in the photo?? Nothing like jumping back into leather seats after a muddy ride. And hands up if anyone thinks that that will actually happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F6 RAPID Formerly Turbo6 Donating Members 2,332 Member For: 22y Location: North Brisbane Posted 23/01/03 09:55 PM Author Share Posted 23/01/03 09:55 PM Just look for the big smile and the turbo badge on the back ed!! I am in the Chermside area - just in case you may catch a glimpse. I am guessing you are on the southside seeing as though you are dealing with BB Ford (if I remember correctly).Guys, I have my SIDO number, what the hell do I do with it? Can I get pictures of my ute being built like some other piccies I have seen?? I think it goes into production next week some time. Does it actually take 3 - 4 weeks from start to me picking it up?? Damn. How do you guys sleep when it gets closer and closer? I am having troubles now - just a big kid I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
