There's nothing official, but all the articles in the media have said 16th Feb to 4th March. That matches up nicely with being available in career from 5th March so I'm inclined to think it's accurate (that and the exact same text has been in half a dozen different places so it highly likely to come from a FM press release).

If, and at this stage it is still an if, IF stages auto unlock on second and subsequent attempts - then it might be just about possible - but the car does have a 3 hour repair time, and IIRC upgrades take something like 6 hours for the second tier (so if you're trying to do it without spending gold it would be pretty tough).

We will know more come Monday.
