2023 Nissan Z Launch Delayed Until Summer 2022

[Drseckzytime]

Thank goodness for this delay. Could you imagine a hot new sports car launching in time to enjoy it for a few nice months in summer instead of the traditional drive it home and park it because it's going to snow tomorrow? Surely would be a sign of the world ending soon, or climate change.

Humor or humor to me at least is my coping mechanism. In reality, I'm pretty mad, and my hype for this car is severely diminished as this is taking too long. Nissan can't seem to do something, anything right in regards to this cars journey from unveil to launch. And, well... Their company in general is having a rough time. Makes me worried about the brand. No good news for this company in a long time.

I've been holding on since Sept 2021. at this rate i will end up like uncle scrooge.

That’s nothing…my deposit was down end of March 2021

The Nissan press release states

The new "Fairlady Z" is scheduled to be released in the summer of this year

The release date was originally scheduled for late June, but due to the recent impact of parts supply, it has been changed to this summer. The release schedule may change depending on the parts supply situation.

Summer in the northern hemisphere (Japan and USA) IS 21ST June to 23rd September so was a Spring release and sale date really on the cards, if it was going to be Spring just doesnt seen that there was going to be enough time for any add campaign or motoring reviews to take place.

Meaning they were aware of the delays before now?

Who you going to get yo-yoed by, then?
In my area, I already tried to get a different cool car, Miata, Challenger, Porsche 718. The 718 is completely unavailable, the Miata is a long wait, and the few Challengers that are available have $20k ADM on them

Quite frankly, there isn't a damned thing on the market that offers a better performance value that isn't a C8.

$20K ADM on a Challenger? LMAO

The whiners on here need to get in with reality. The dealer lots here in FL look like they all went out of business since there are barely any vehicles for sale.

The Miata RF Club I just bought was special ordered by someone in December and they got tired of waiting on it.
I still want the Z but got tired of waiting.

Yep true as far as performance/dollar, even though C8s are also marked up around here. Looks like I'll hang on to my GT for a bit, also a great perf/dollar value, 460 hp at $46K, pulls hard!

I got tired of waiting too! Boy am I glad I did! ?
