Thanks for the info. Iām in the Houston area. Nice breakdown of your likes & dislikes. I missed out on a blue one just south of Houston. It was a Performance Blue/black int. MT. Mark up was minimal and up front. I have a Nissan dealer 5 mins from my house. They got a black AT Sports model...
Thanks. Seeing Rosewood also. Nissan may be doing color runs & a red run is upcoming. My ā73 240 was Red w/black interior so it would be cool if I find a red one. Blue & Yellow are cool also.
Has anyone seen a red (not rosewood) Z for sale in the US? I remember one of the guys in Canada got one. Seems like black and of course yellow with the Protosās have been the prominent colors. I would love to see the orange as shown on the prototype Nismo Z as one of the colors.
A price increase does not surprise me, and another $1k for newer builds is pretty much what other manufacturers are doing. We purchased a 2023 Jeep Cherokee in November with a September build date. I went to the dealer for my first oil change last week and saw the exact same vehicle, however the...
Glad to see some of the ridiculous mark ups seem to be coming down to less ridiculous mark ups. They donāt realize that making a few bucks from someone who will bite will come back to haunt them later. Many of us have been waiting a long time with some buying other cars, some paying whatever...
Seeing the old Zās with the new ones is very cool. The 240ās are timeless. My ā73. was the same red color of the one in the photo. It would look different at night under lights. Letās hope more new ones get built & on the road.
Fortunately, there are plenty of dealers who are not greedy. But the dealers that are certainly are ones I wonāt do business with. They might make a good profit from a big mark up, but the bad references both in writing & by word of mouth will hurt sales of their other vehicles. I can live...
Good luck. I was able to see a black AT sport at my local dealer. Looked very nice & I can see why you like that combination. since it was a sport model it took 3 days to sell. A lot of searching will be making the right call, seeing the right ad, or being at the right place at the right time...
Sorry you could not get the car. I thought the blue was really nice, but want to wait until I can order one so I get the exact factory options I want. I will be curious to see if any of the others on the forum who are from here in TX were able to snag it.
I would not load up the engine at lower speeds. When I drive my 240 I shift around 3,500-5,000 RPMās and let my ear and the way the car is feeling tell me to move to a different gear. When I get on the 240 I shift around 6,500 RPM. I will drive the new Z using the āfeelā of the engine & car in...
A black Sport model came in to my local dealer in the Houston area. I was able to get a good look, sit in it, & take pics. When I asked about ordering, the answer was āI donāt know if you will be able to order & we may not get any more until the 2024 modelā. That was a little deflating. However...
i think it is better to be safe even though some owners will let it fly from the start. I have always taken it a little easy on any vehicles I have purchased, including hard braking (unless some idiot pulls out in front of you). We recently purchased a new Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit and I could...
Does not surprise me about the flipping. I will be curious to see if someone pays in the $79Krange for one of the Protos. Still waiting to see one at Mecum or B J and a couple of drunk guys bid against each other ending up paying a ridiculous price. It is bound to happen.
Looks really nice. I was not sure about that color, but seeing it in the pics shows how good it looks. If you get the opportunity, share some interior pics. Congratulations
I think we all agree a plate would have been a great item to install on each car. The folio is definitely cool. Nice touch & Iām sure you were happily surprised when it showed up.
