Anyone seen a new, Black Astra turbo in a dealer?
Im going to put a deposit and order as soon as the dealer can chase one up. Apparently they are getting hard to find now,

Dealer (Ballan Holden) is looking for one but i thought maybe one of you guys could've spotted one somewhere? (It will give me a better idea if I'm going to manage to get one or if i start looking at commodore equipe options...)

There's a blue one second hand on the block up here. Dunno how many kms though. Been there for a few weeks. Would have thought someone would have snapped it up.

Cheers

I thought I spotted a silver one at the front of the yard in Penfold Burwood (in Melbourne). It might have been sold, but they do have a large carpark underneath the building and could have one or two more in stock.

I had to check again that you did actually say BLACK.

Heritage Holden Lilydale(Melb.) Had a Black on the Floor a few weeks ago, Along with a Sunrise Turbo Convertable.
Not sure if they still have it there.

sounds like there still might be a couple out there.... maybe I'll be lucky *L*

Only interested in brand newies, Holden employee & Mastercard discounts dont apply to anything else.

speak to a stock controller they should be able to tell ya where abouts one is in the country... if they want to be nice... the hard part is finding the nice person to do it :) dealer get the shits if they know that they have the car you want as they cant play ball with the price and try and rip ya off :mrgreen: good luck with the search

When i bought my black turbo, there where only 13 sri-t throuhgout Aus, and these where varied in colors, i dont think that theres many left out there, the SRi-T is a limited only 600 came to Aus

From latest reports, 'only' approx 450 have been sold so far, so theoretically there should still be approx 150 still floating around somewhere, scattered all over the country

Was speaking to my Sales Manager and he said that they only get one a month.

Not because they only want one but that is the rate at which they are being released/imported.

So that 150 may still be waiting to land on our fair shores?!

I was under the impression the last shipment had arrived late Feb/early March (built december) But they could still be getting their compliance plates etc. Plus the fact that there's approx 350 Holden dealers in Australia, 150 left would make them pretty rare.

strange though, cos apprently the silver one i have ordered is coming from sydney. So its not like they are just looking at what local dealers have got.

The silver one on the stand out the front of Suttons, Arncliffe isn't there anymore. Maybe it's on it's way to you. :?
