Wow... great result indeed considering another "demo" just got listed in VIC with roll cage n buckets- great spec for track. Wonder how long that will last considering a similar example with roll cage has been listed on and off in QLD for a while and is dropping the asking price by $2k/week. Other lightly used ones seem to be lingering a bit- are we about to see a price correction on used GT4 in Australia?

This is the last time I will post GTS stuff here, but for those interested here are some better photos with the right colour contrast this time.

Jim / Andrew - good to meet you both this morning. Nice collection of cars showed up as well. Will post up initial impressions on headers and tune, hopefully Wednesday or Thursday.

Look forward to some more photos of yours Jim.

Yeah was a good catch up. Paul wanted me to take him for a spin. I made him squeal like a little girl. Lol

I'll say it again - these cars are so much fun.

Looking forwards to your feedback Brad.

Yep, taken off Carsales already but dunno if available as still on PCM's website?

A few of these used ones on Carsales have now been around a while:

SA- Yellow with full leather yellow stitch- AUD229,000 + orc
QLD- White with 918 seats, full leather red stitch, roll cage- AUD236,990 + orc
VIC- Yellow- AUD239,998 + orc
NSW- White with 918 seats, full leather grey stitch, SC- AUD247,500 + orc

Admittedly the QLD seller is relisting due to a failed sale but price is also dropping AUD2k/week.

I'm guessing there really are a lot more GT4s than folks realise- especially as PCM have been taking orders as late as the last week or so (from Snowman's mate) and sold the fully loaded agate one to James88 under original list price. More shipping spaces for Aussie GT4 appear to be being booked too which takes the total beyond 140. Great for a larger GT4 driving community, not so great for any short term flippers...

I know there were allocations still floating around as recently as a few weeks ago.

Anyone here expecting a delivery in Melbourne in the next week or 2? 2 x GT4s are getting off a boat in Melbourne today, then the boat will come up to Sydney and unload mine along with another GT4. Not long to go now!

Uncommitted allocations really explains why used ones at premiums don't move- why buy used when one can get a new one configured just the way they want it?

Hang in there Charliekay... it gets darkest before the dawn. If you can't wait you could always do a James88

Hahaha. Not happening. I have about 2 weeks for delivery and the car has been specced just the way I wanted it, I will find it hard to find a spec like mine. Plus if I found another car today I probably would get it the same time as mine anyways.
