Has Z production already started?

One of the things they do is train, train, train their assembly line workers. You can't do that with AR.

When I Googled Tochigi plant this was all that came up.

Well that’s wrong regardless because they have confirmed they are no longer making the 370z

Are you saying you think Nissan would hand build 30 (maybe more) cars….within a couple of months …highly unlikely

I'm just saying we don't have a confirmation from Nissan via press release. Different company, but Toyota had around 80 preproduction Supras built before the official launch.

I get it, I’m just saying if truck loads of Z in one colour are already being prepared for shipment that it’s more likely production has started.
not 100% but more likely.

The dark gray (and others) are RHD for non-US?!!

Or, it could mean that Thursday and Friday were yellow paint days on the assembly line.

Hey…it could still happen ??

if Its any consolation my dealer in Aus was sure it would be here Feb/ March time too

Here's the Google translate of the below article. I'm not sure how accurate the source is, though. The below dates are for the domestic market. No mention of dates for the US or other markets. There will be 200 Proto spec versions available for purchase in the Japan domestic market.

Back in May I heard this is about the time production would start.....seems to have lined up lol

 

[therumblewagon]

April 1, eh? Nothing suspicious about that date at all...

In all seriousness, was wondering if we'd get some news out of TAS. Also, 200 Proto specs to Japan? Leaving 40 for rest of globe? I'm suspicious of that, unless I'm reading it wrong

they couldn’t give me more info other than that.
