Yes I'm not seeing 2025 model year Zs advertised for sale. And I haven't been able to find even one legit photo of a 2025 Z in the new shade of red, you'd think there would at least be some marketing photos or review site photos. The Nissan web site for Z still shows 2024 versions. How long does...

I don't have a Z partly because in 2023, my long lost Ford Bronco 2-door manual trans order suddenly rose from the dead and got picked up for a build, after nearly two years in COVID hangover limbo. Nissan was still dragging with Z availability, and I couldn't pass up the Bronco for a price...

A stealership tried to sneak a $400 vin etch charge at the last minute when signing a purchase agreement for our Kia Soul econo car. Fortunately I saw it. After some haggling they offered half price for the vin etch, at which point I said "offer it for $0 and it's a deal". It added a half hour...

The Nissan dealer closest to me has two Zs in the showroom out of maybe 6 or 7 vehicles total. Seems odd giving the two Zs that prominence, considering the market for the Z is probably a lot lower than their other vehicles. I was the only guy looking at the Zs during my visit, the other...

Slim chance they'll find it. ;)

No red available on a sports car?! How about a straight up red (no metallic/triple coat/hue changing stuff). Just a nice real straight up red. (Like my BRZ.)

I live in the state of Illinois Chicago area and still haven't seen a Z in the wild. It's a major metro area, thought I'd have at least seen one by now. Another constrained vehicle the Ford Bronco (COVID/prod issues/demand) has finally started appearing in greater numbers in my area. Although...

My monthly check-in ... glad to see a Z finally arrived for some of you! By the way, is the dealership having the car covered with a sheet/bow for customer pickup an Australian thing? (I've noticed it in several photos.)

Congrats! Still haven't seen a Z in the wild in Chicagoland. Iowa seems the place to buy. I got my Bronco for the original under 30k price at a dealer in Granger IA last month.

"not long now" has lost meaning, lol. Checking back here every month or so, people are still waiting for vehicles that supposedly are just around the corner. (Feels like a certain play.) That said, hopefully for real your vehicle arrives soon.

Oh man, I use to live in Fort Collins CO, and some of the hail storms were brutal. My son drove our BRZ out there last year and of course, got hit by hail and a few dents. :( Hope you continue to avoid that stuff. Are you doing the non interstate route just for fun or to aid with engine...

Not sure about AU regulations or Nissan policy, but for the first new Bronco model year 2021 in the USA, Ford had customer orders for two colors (Rapid Red and Antimatter Blue). And yet Ford still dropped those colors after only one year offering. Customers with unfulfilled orders had to select...

Auto dealerships wanting to keep their status and power. Snips from the article: "The car dealers in Dallas were gathering on the 10-year anniversary of a triumphant 2013 stand they took, as a political bloc, against direct sales in Texas. That year, the Legislature of the Lone Star State...

I haven't seen a live Z yet, only photos. Overall the increasing costs and aggravations around cars, has kind of turned me off, never thought that would happen as a lifelong "car guy". I'm probably going to ride out my first gen BRZ and other current vehicles, focus on other things in life. A Z...

A year or so ago reading the tea leaves, I predicted 2024 before a non-connected MSRP type person like me, would see a Z delivered and in my driveway. Now I'm not even sure if that is optimistic? Of concern is any mid or yearly price hikes. Those have been hitting some vehicles hard. What will...

Not cool - hope they find this serial paint scratcher and put her out of business: https://news.yahoo.com/video-shows-woman-keying-more-150043600.html "Video shows woman keying more than 400 cars at dealerships in Vancouver area"

Any idea of how it happened? Evidence of a stone impact, rather than some glass defect? That's a hit having to pay for it out of pocket. :(

I had no idea these bonnet poppers even existed until now. o_O I'll have to check my other cars to see if they have them. Maybe it's just a thing for lower slung vehicles? If my Ford Bronco ever arrives, I hope it doesn't have these poppers, because it's going be scraping and hitting things...

Professional ceramic coating is out for me due to cost. I've tried some spray on "hybrid" ceramic coatings, but got a lot of streaking, the surface of my red car looked horrible depending on angle of light shining. I spent a lot of time trying to get rid of the streaking, ended up wiping down...

What's up with the midwest especially Chicagoland, seems like a deadzone for Zs. I still haven't seen a Z in person, was hoping by now a dealership around here would have one on display.
