Was anyone here around for the mk5 Supra roll out? Did it seem to drag on for as long as this?

It was unveiled on 1/2019 with sales starting in late 7/2019.

If the dealers get a Demo Z before the preorders I’d be pissed (not as much as @West Aussie but close), what is the point of a dealer demo for a car that you can’t order because production is full or is sold out

Exactly my point …and yes I’ll be very pissed. They have orders that won’t be filled for a year, so what is the point of wasting a car to sell more cars that they don’t have ?

Unfortunately all rumours/intel are pointing towards this. Makes no sense to me either.

My guess is, it's because they can't finish the cars. They're 99% complete but are waiting on something to finish them.
But they can send out some press/dealer cars in the interim.

Not sure if it's a good idea though?

or tesla have prooven that pre orders value your company more, even if you cannot produce.

so you want a long product cycle.

Cyber truck released with pre oders taken in 2019

maybe a 2023 release?? who knows with the delays!

Just wondering if anyone has gotten confirmation for their Proto that put a deposit down after October? I put mine down on the 2nd of October and am assuming I’ve missed out.

Well, it’s not yellow ( bad)
But it’s not a Proto (good)

Suppose it’s a Demo ? VERY bad
But hoping it’s someone’s….doubt it though coz surely someone somewhere has a VIN and notification that they are getting one
