Lol - now I'm just spamming. Australian reviews are being posted up. Looks like Porsche took the Australian press down to Philip Island today.

Mine should be hitting the docks in the next couple of days but unfortunately I'm off to Europe on saturday so won't be able to pick it up until early november. I think a week in and around the snowies/vic alps in mid november before the schools break for christmas hols might be on the cards though :)

Those delivery numbers sound more believable to what I was originally told Brad which was 30 ish. Think 70 odd is a bit more realistic. Wonder if it will get to 140 though.

Interesting to see some of the Aussie reviews.
Has anyone else noticed that there was supposed to be only 1x Sapphire Blue press car, but some of the pictures show standard seats but some of the video's are showing LWB's?????

Love you colour Bardman :)

Just got confirmation of my VIN and car has been built :) happy days.

cp993 10-11-2015 02:55 AM

Car looks awesome Brad. Did you end up getting film on the front?

Rod, that's fantastic news re your vin. Hope I have similar news soon given our cars were due to be built same week :)

Interesting to also read the Australian Press car was shipped with PS2's.
The customer cars which were delivered at the same time came with the Dunlops....

This is because there were two cars at the press launch. The sapphire blue PCA press car with sports seats and JR's white car with LWB seats. So the interior shots with LWB's are Jim's car (note white rear vision mirrors) and the other shots are of the PCA press car.

Thanks. I haven't done any sort of film on the car. Im a bit on the fence about it to be honest. Likely that I won't do it.

Hope you get your VIN soon!

Mine came with the PS2's. Given I will pretty much only street my car, I might go for PSSs when these wear out.

Didn't One of the GT4 there have an engine expiry? That's what someone from NZ in the media who went there reported over here??

Hrms wonder why the Perth one that was delivered has the Dunlops? Would have thought they would have both been from the same production runs.

Congrats on the car....love the colour.
Let me know what you do about the film, I was thinking about it. But then advised unless you do the whole car, if you later polish the unfilmed sections there may be colour differences.
I'm thinking might stick with Modesta Paint Protection......

I haven't heard anything about this.

cp993 10-11-2015 09:53 PM

One of the articles I read said there was a problem with the press car but they didnt say what it was. So some of the journalists swapped into JR's targa prepped car to do their laps apparently.....

IMOA 10-13-2015 04:56 AM

Mine arrived yesterday and was fitted with the PS2's which made me happy. Being over the other side of the world, not so much.
