I’ve just accepted that this will go the same route as every other vehicle currently for sale. My biggest heart ache is knowing that I might not have the potential to be an original owner of a new Z without having to pay over MSRP.
You are 10th in line to a dealership that will potentially get 5 allocations for the year. They are just handing out reservations with empty promises of you getting one. Say they actually deliver and you get the chance to purchase, you are then at the mercy of them charging whatever they want...
I’m mainly just complaining. I’m not saying dealerships outside the US know more or are any better. I’m just shocked that you can preorder a vehicle and then call a dealership and have absolutely no information about it or even the name of it. Just stumps me.
So I’ve been calling around Florida, all of Florida and asking about any news about the new Z that’s coming out. I’m promptly greeted with oh the new 400z? No, the new Z. I politely ask if anyone knows about Zs or is an enthusiast that might be able to answer any questions about them. I’m always...
This is a comparison of the Sport VS Performance with M/T based on the CAs Nissan website, the differences are the following:
MECHANICAL & PERFORMANCE
6-speed manual transmission with SynchroRevMatch
Mechanical LSD
Nissan Performance brakes
SAFETY & SECURITY
Active head restraints
19" RAYS...
I'm honestly thinking the same.. I'm pretty sure it's easier to swap a LSD into a non factory LSD pumpkin, that's how it was for the 350z if I remember correctly.. And you'll get away from the VLSD.
AMS already said they are going for 1k HP. They already make stuff for the VR30 so they have a pretty good assumption with what needs to be done, same goes for FI. I wouldn't mind seeing Z1 make different tier packages like they did for the 300zx.
