That is totally unacceptable in my book. I'd be totally giving them shit if that happened to me. That is why I put in a clause in the contract about the delivery date. They were still late 2-3 days on the promised date, but it took only 10 days so I wasn't willing to cancel the contract and buy from somewhere else over 3 day difference.Quote:

yes sometimes the dealer push the guys who have already commited and stay quiet to the back of the line quite a few times just to get the ppl who kick up stink or the guys who havnt signed unless they get a car in 7 days into their cars....it sux...i'm afraid 10vdr you may have been pushed back because you havnt had a spew yet.........
If I didnt send my dealer a hurry up fax yesterday Im 100% positive I wouldnt be getting the car on fridaqy. Id be giving them a "formal reminder" if I were you....
too bad I'm getting my car through salary packaging... so theres no arse kicking in dealership... i'll jsut have to put and shut up! ;/
I GOT THE CAR TODAY ! Very impressed!
Left at 6am, dealer handover took 15 minutes and drove back.
Drove it back to canberra and putting up with some amazing bullshit at the ACT Rego but got it done. :!:
The Red Milano 6 sp manual standard car had 8km on the clock. I found the highway performace to be fantastic, esp after drving up im my more powerful magna. The euro was a lot quiter and smoother and frankly the engine pulls very similarly to a small V6. More than happy with the cruising permormance. The interior is very friendly and I found the stereo to be excellent. The cruise and stereo controls on the wheel are a brilliant addition.
I am finding the stock suspension to be very tight and at this stage do not intend to mod it. :)
I am getting Lite-7 18x7 gold speedys fitted on Tuesday. :wave:
Photos to come.
I can official join this forum now. :D
cheers

My guess is that its easily doing under 8 sec 0-100km, im not even really having a go because im running it in. I guess the 5 degree celsius air temp is helping but it really flys! :)
Id image once I run it in and get the 18 inch wheels fitted that its really going to shine. What a great car !
/ends fanboy rant :) :p
haha yes now we are all fanboys.........just call me mistral :DQuote:
