That is amazing! Got a link? Replies to this message: steve_ (Aug 16, 2007 6:54 am) xerok00l (Aug 16, 2007 10:24 am)

Replying to: gagrice (Aug 16, 2007 5:44 am) "During the first five weeks the cars were on sale, 5,300 orders were taken, compared to a monthly sales target of 300 units." The real number (which I haven't found) will depend on production and whether orders get cancelled and not filled by other buyers I guess. It looks like these are just the Japanese orders (hey, I'm still on my first cup of coffee - y'all read it and figure it out ).
