The author and editor of this piece needs to do their homework. 2k for R-Line and 4K for DAP???

Does the 162 come with tinted rear windows as this review suggests?

I'm taking non R-line.

Yes, only rear windows tinted. Other windows no tint.

Hello all. Ordered my silver petrol R line with DAP today. The dates I got was Sept delivery. So after reading all the comments here I'm more expecting a Dec/Jan delivery. The car is for my wife so the wait is not bothering me too much.

Just to add myself to the list of those waiting, we ordered ours from McCarrolls in Hornsby last Thursday, same setup as Eyes24 (thanks again for the help).

162 R-Line, DAP, Pano in Indium Grey

My ETA is end of August as they changed an already allocated one from White to Grey.

For those still looking, my numerous calls to Dealers around Sydney on 30/3 came up with the following for 162s with R-Line:-

Fivedock - White, DAP, Roof - May
Fivedock - Red, DAP, Roof - June
Sutherland - White, DAP, Roof - 1 Week!
Sutherland - 140TDI Black - Now
Waitara - White, DAP, Roof - June
Sydney City - Order from factory only
North Shore - Grey, DAP, Roof - Oct
Parramatta - Grey, NO DAP, NO Roof - End June

Hope that helps someone.

Now.....

Hi bendor, thanks for the info. Very useful. Can I ask what sort of deal you got in the end? Did you have to pay pay a premium or could you negotiate a good price? I might be looking at waitara too.

[bendor]

Yep sure, I was originally quoted $65 by my local dealer for a fully loaded black one that had fallen through so was in the showroom to sit in....it took all my willpower to resist!

First negotiation was $61k for a factory order, then it got down to $60.5k.

Then after ringing around I quoted my best offer as $60k which most of them were willing to match if there was a wait involved, but finally I got my deal for $58.4k due to Association discount, apparently there is a list of them that qualify for a cashback payment to the dealer!

Now I'm fairly sure that the cashback amount is $1300 at the top level which is what we got so that would make it $59.7k.

Good luck!

Hello,

have been reading these posts for a while but only just got around to formally joining the message board...

Have a grey 140 R line with DAP on order. Delivery on a boat that lands in Sydney May 10 apparently. I know there were a few posts about how people can track their Tiggy en route - Could someone please post a link?

Like everyone else waiting, I'm super excited but getting the VIN and knowing she's on her way is definitely helping.
