Booking Time for Prado2021

[rov Lurker Find all posts View Profile Close rov]

Hi
Ordered a white prado gxl at 4 pm 30 June.
Dealer estimated delivery to be November.
Just got a call from dealer saying it will be here 1st week of August to my surprise.
Confirmed it includes new features or blind spot and rear cross traffic alert.
Toyota must have ramped up production or someone's cancelled orders...who know. Only a 1 month wait and now have to get busy cleaning up our 2015 Pajero to sell.

Sensational - gotta be happy with that

GXL was booked on 7th June 2021and still being advised delivery is in December 2021 or sometime in 2022. Hope it gets better than that.

Why such a wait?

really interesting timelines here... we ordered our VX in late May, no updates for 2 months. Dealer sent me the login for the online order tracker, that finally updated from "we are proud to release a new model in July 2021, your order will commence after the release of the new model" to "order confirmed" on the 14th July... hasn't moved since.

Spoke to the dealer about the new model updates, confirmed we are getting 19inch rims.... not happy who the F^&^ puts 19 inch rims on an offroad vehicle??? you cant even buy AT tyres that fit!!

anyway, dealer said hed swap the rims with 17s off a demo GX/GXL if allocated one. suffice it to say, if they try to sting me an extra $1000 when the ONLY update is 19inch rims, they're not going to enjoy the follow up conversation...

Not sure why but was advised by dealer as they are unsure of their vehicle allocations.

I just ordered a graphite GX and have been advised that the wait time is around 5 months.

30/7/21 - Order placed
4/8/21 - Confirmation email saying it's officially been ordered

I'll update on expected lead times when I find out more.

For others who are about to purchase, I struggled to get any discount from a dealer but got a good discount through National Car Brokers (https://www.nationalcarbrokers.com.au/). I was hesitant but they had good reviews and the process was easy, although they asked for a higher deposit since dealers supposedly don't want to order GX's as they're harder to move and have less markup. I recommend knowing exactly what you want and being ready to purchase immediately. Their fee was $242 and once the deal is done everything is handled through Toyota including updates and final payment

So if you don’t mind, what was the final price for you and what additional items were included

Final price was $61,900 on road and delivered, plus the $242 broker fee. The only extras were the paint and rubber mats.
