    Now imagine the amount of phone calls and emails and faxes we get from people with R36's on order and how frustrating it is not being able to give them clear answers. Doesn't make life easy that's for us. promise I'll pass on details as they come to hand people

      My brother is looking to get a R36. I thought these were released in the UK a couple of months ago however cant find any UK reviews, forum topics or anything from actual owners of the car.

      Have you guys got any links you can share with me from any actual owners?

      Cheers

        I posted a link in this thread this morning. It's the first actual driving review I've seen.

          "The ride is pretty knobbly and the dampers are firm, something that’s noticeable even on the motorway. A little more compliance wouldn’t go amiss here. "

          So if it's "knobbly" on a British motorway, what's it going to be like on the goat tracks we Aussies like to call roads, I wonder...?

            might be worth waiting for the CC if any rumour the v6 with 220kw also will be priced at 65k. Also gets the nicer seats I think.

                    Order was placed 22 May, but my dealer was very careful to ensure I received one of the first shipments. He made it clear that if I did not order one of the few remaining incoming vehicles from the first shipment I would have to wait for the next shipment (at the time there were only 6 left for the entire country).

                      I ordered mine on 12 April but the Aust. arrival date is not scheduled until 22 July with delivery to me in mid-August.

                      You've done well to receive yours so quickly! We expect a lot of reviews and photos from you lucky early owners.

                        Mines sitting at Port Kembla at the moment, so if all goes well I should be able to give everyone some details in a few weeks. Waiting on my dealer to confirm when they can get the car to me.

                          I have been given a June 16 Delivery date.

                          I queried when I would be able to first view the car. The dealer advised that there will be a R36 wagon in their showroom being delivered on Friday - I wonder who the lucky lucky bugger is!!

                              Dealer said it was sold - told me I could come in and have a look, but that the new owner was picking it up on Friday...

                                Wow......didn't think they'd be out so soon? I was expecting mid June for the first delivery.

                                Mine's still on track for late June.
