The monotone colors are getting priority. But something specifically about the red is an issue at the factory not sure the details
Anyone know of any white/ red interior manuals that were delivered?
Seems White has been one of the last batches along with non proto yellows

Does this just mean:
A) more delays for Red
B) no more new orders for Red
C) no more Red cars other than those that are made

And as for Red being removed from the Au website. Does this mean?
A B or C above or
D) it's been removed until supply can be sured up (not that any colours are readily available)
E) someone fucked up the website

I dont really have any info about the Australian market but I read about the red delays a few months ago on a Japanese blog that gets info from a dealer. then for the US I was speaking to a dealer over the phone about his 2024 allocations he commented there was a restriction on the color red where an order for it couldn't be placed but it could be month to month.

I was told part of the delays with the two tone colors is the roof cannot be painted with the new automated system at the factory and the paint line on the hatch must be done by hand.


here is the translated blog post about red

Makes you wonder what the hell is going on at Nissan!?! Every other sports car manufacturer has the option of red paint and appears capable of producing it without too many issues. And I always thought red was faster 😟😂🫤

there have also been Ariya delays over the same situation but its less noticeable because the volume is much higher and the priority given over the Z

Anyone heard anything from their dealer r.e confirmed Nismo orders yet?
With media stating info that around 50 went to existing order transfers and the rest to the public on Thursday I'd say Nissan know who's got what and are working on disseminating that info to the dealers
