I considered the MT-03 as well, but I was upgrading from my Ninja 250 that I'd learned on, and wanted something with a little more get up and go (which this definitely has!) Had to ride back from a dealer 45 minutes away in the cold rain to get mine in the colour I wanted.
I can see why it would be frustrating for some people, as it means the difference between driving it for a season before parking it for winter, or essentially going straight into storage if October launch is, in fact, accurate.
Are dealers allowed to pre-add on items for a vehicle that was ordered in specifically for one customer though, as almost all, if not all Zs that are coming in are? I get if it's a vehicle that's going into their inventory, they can add on whatever, and if customer doesn't want to pay it, they...
I stand corrected. I knew the exchange wouldn't be an exact carryover, I assumed Nissan world take advantage of the fact that the Supra is a higher price point to set their Canadian MSRP. But it looks like the 2020 370Z Canadian was only ~4k higher than US MSRP. Good news for us up north.
Seeing as how the sport is announced at around 40k USD, and the performance is guesstimated at around 45-47k USD, I'd be extremely surprised (although happily so) is it ends up being 50k CAD. I'm assuming it'll be closer to 58-60k CAD for the performance. The Supra 3.0 starts around 68k, so...
Another teaser, but still no news...☹️
I have my confirmation email from my dealer pre-order, and I'm in no hurry, so I'll most likely wait it out. But these teasers are frustrating. At this point, I'd prefer if Nissan didn't release anything unless there's new info.
Didn't Toyota shut down all Japan factories in response to the cyberattack of one of their suppliers? I wonder if that will affect the timeline at all.
At this point, I am trying to just be patient (not one of my strong points). I remind myself that I have my place in 'line', and whenever the Z comes to market, my place in line will not change. I do check the forum and Google for news at least once a day though haha.
The dealer that I pre-ordered from on Jan 31 showed me my pre-order page, it shows an estimated RDR date of 2022/06/30. Might just be a placeholder, but it has me hopeful!
