Spring 2022 is almost here. The issue is, no words from Nissan nor any previews of actual testing and metrics, just shows and displays. That is the frustration. We're all wondering if there are more delays coming. I for one can't wait because needed something for the 2022 season of tracking. But still hopeful the Nismo will be a great Z, can wait for that.
exactly this! that along with no pricing which is the big issue in this market. If the price range doesn't make sense why buy it when i can get a better buy with a different vehicle right now
wasn't it already stated that the z will be approx 40k? You can safely assume give or take 5-10k more for the higher spec.
You can not safely assume anythingā¦.besides as I wrote on one of my other posts in Australia , the Pathfinder was due here summer 2021ā¦still not here, still no set delivery date, the Quashi was supposed to be here EARLY 2022 no prices yet, no dealer delivery date yet ā¦the Z was to come after these cars. Hardly Instills confidence when the two models that were already supposed to be released, donāt even have a date ā¦.and as we get closer to when the Z is supposed to be here, it looks more and more like it will be the same scenario
you just joined here today. read some threads. read this list...
The Nissan Corp probably is stoked that without addressing the 7 issues jdm-rhd listed they still pre-sold out all of Canada. I'm sure that the USA will be similar. The only thing that could cause problems is if the road tests come back with bad reviews, or some sort of major design flaw that gets revealed early after they begin hitting the road. The slow no price product release doesn't make customers happy but I'm sure the boardroom at Nissan isn't losing much sleep yet unless lots of orders begin to get cancelled.
Always love when the āIām built differentā guys log on. Iāll never understand brand apologists for situations like thisāNissan has objectively butt fumbled the heck out of this launch. Period. Theyāre known to do this, as pointed out by others, and yet have not made any notable efforts to course correct. But yeah, āitāll get here when it gets hereā checks out. definitely compensates for the many, many months of anticipation building, etc.
You obviously are not an engineer. Totally changing their production process is incredibly complex and would take time to ramp up and get the bugs out. Also, the Z is not Priority 1 at Nissan. The Ariya is, and that vehicle is made at Tochigi as well. The Ariya won't be in the US until late this year and availability will be low. Between the chip shortage, COVID, and supplier issues, the auto industry is in a world of hurt right now.
Nissan is still working out the bugs on their new 'wiperless' windshield. That's why the delays. ?
