Hands Up all the Aussies

[West Aussie]

I ordered 18 December, 2020. Still waiting....

Wow….have you had confirmation from your dealer of a build date?
You should at least have that by now.
What colour/spec did you order?
And which state do you reside in?

My Queensland dealer has confirmed that my blue coupe has/was built in late January - but still can't give me a VIN. He tells me I should get the car in May. But then he previously told me it would be ready March, then he said April.... Seems only Protos and solid coloured cars are coming in so far.

Sounds similar to me.
I was given a “VIN” number by a dealer (two dealers back) that turned out to not be a VIN but something else entirely so the current dealer tells me, and that makes more sense as no one else is getting VINS before sailings.
You’ve been waiting 4 months longer than even me so I totally feel your pain.
You have confirmed build date end of Jan, my confirmed build date was 2nd week of Feb…so the real question is why in the heck haven’t they sent them and where are they sitting in the mean time.
I understand the quarantine issue…excepting that the car yards are now full of unsold Nissans, so the question remains. Why send unsold cars over ones that are sold and also built?
I also agree it seems solid cars are arriving first..and again, why would they build the least popular colours first.
So much of this roll out not making any sense

My due date since confirmed build was always May so let’s hope they arrive soon

I agree it makes no sense not to send the cars that are already built. I suspect my car is sitting in a paddock somewhere - exposed to the weather for three straight months. I fear what may happen to the paintwork - and potential rust/corrosion on the undercarriage/brakes/suspension, etc.

Is it good or bad news

 

[cainen]

The news is there is no news.

 

[theboosh]

The news is it’s like the plot to The Usual Suspects and the Nissan Z doesn’t actually exist.

Anyone seen the under shroud for the Z at Z1, replaces the plastic with custom made aluminium shroud with a service panel for oil changes. I like the idea but a bit pricy at $369.

You can’t throw a grenade like that and walk away??
I phoned Nissan head office yesterday…they didn’t know anything new then, I’m not that hopeful they know anything new now?

Yeah it looks cool, but the stock shroud had a service panel too.
This would just add more weight and maybe a little bit more protection

Yes I am a child. Well mentally.

Wait a minute. The White doesn't come with bronze wheels. What's all this, then?
