Haha nice man! Be sure to post pics!!!

Nick that's strange man. The only way you'd get smaller mirrors would be if you had a MY09 car, but we had september builds yeah? Hmm...No idea.

Gents looks like the Otello won't reach Melbourne until the 7th... checked out Port of Melbourne's expected ship movements and it doesn't look like the otello is listed for a 6th arrival.

So it looks like a 7th arrival/departure... or perhaps a 7th arrival and an 8th departure... oh well... pretty sure I won't be able to take delivery until after the 5th of December.. grrr

really 24/7?? that's pretty good.

I think it also depends on how quick it gets onto a truck to how quickly we actually get our cars.

it docked 25th october 2009 and i drove out of dealer yesterday 03 november... so just over a week... thats to get through customs and be prepared by the dealer...

i ordered way back on 11 july 2009...

so i had been waiting but it was so worth it... its so good that on my lunch break i went back to take it for another spin!

i havent seen any though on the roads in 4months.. maybe one or two the whole time and ive now seen two in two days which is a bit annoying... but still... best car i've ever driven... hands down

My dealer told me that the earliest the car would be at the dealership would be 25/11.. so really I'm only going to be waiting 1-2 weeks before I can pick up my car!!

Weirdest thing... there is no mention of the ship 'Otello' in either the Port of Melbourne or Port of Brisbane schedules... WTF!!!

Gents.... someone is going to have to sit on the webcams today to check that our boat hasn't and doesn't go astray!!!
