When the Civic first came out in Perth - waiting times to buy the Civic were not ridiculous - I was told I can get a Sports version Civic 06 in two weeks!!!Quote:

sounds exactly like what happened to me... except for the last call where they told me it just arrived and will be in my hands in a week. i suggest you call them every week, in the hope they give you a pleasant surprise - i bet even they won't know for sure when the car will arrive in aus, but when it does it's not long before you get it :)Quote:

Like I said, sticking with your contract will be your best shot at getting that car ASAP, as that saleperson would be working hard to get your car so he does not lose the deal.
If you were PROMISED a car by this time, I would put in a complaint, demanding for a loan car till your's arrives. Should be easily arranged through the dealer and will only be done if he literally promised the car would be in your hands by now.
Keep in mind too, it is out of the dealer's control when your vehicle will arrive, I work for Volkswagen up here, and the GTI situation is a nightmare with customer's waiting, as we give a guide when their car will arrive, yet it is still often weeks late.
A lot of factor's come into play with the arrival time, so be understanding too :thumbsup:
Thanks for the replies guys, very helpful... the contract said I should got the car by 1st of April. I'll try to contact the dealer every week, and see what happens by then..
Aco3n,
You should also make best use of your contract terms....
"If the dealer has not delivered the motor vehicle to the customer, within thirty days of the estimated delivery date, the customer by notice in writing mayrecind this contract."
That is, if they havent delivered the car to you by 30 days after their estimated delivery date you've been handed a free option to go get a better deal from another dealer and recind your original contract. Alternatively, you could let your dealer know you intend to do this unless they drop their price again.
Its a wonderful negotiating position you are put in and you can bet your dealer and the dealers that post on this forum will not like it! :-)
yup good point. if you're just chasing for faster delivery time, i dont think going to another dealer looking for the same model would be helpfull, as all the honda dealers are facing the same situation (supply cant keep up with demand). unless of course the other dealer offers to give you a better deal just to get your order :)Quote:

Q: anyone know where to purchase the civic sports mirrors with the indicators?
Q: do accord euro standard rims or dc5r rims fit the new civic?
Q: anyone know where to get the hybrid spoiler..as i asked my dealer and they would only sell me the aftermarket one..which i tink is quite ugly..are there any places in perth that supply the mugen kit? does anyone have any other sites/forums other than the US ones that talk abt the civic Si coupe haha
