📊 2023 Nissan Z Sales Figures So Far

[Z06fan]

Yeah, I have a subscription to consumer reports and I did see that. Probably like a lot of car people, my first reaction was to smile. CR definitely has it's pluses and minuses. Luxury brands tend to be at the top of that list each year so it's probably not a stretch to assume there's a reporting bias. It's going to be an uphill battle to convince most people that BMW products are more reliable than Toyota or Honda. I like CR but when you're testing everything from shoes to cars, you can't be an expert on all topics.

Mercedes, land rover, jag are all near bottom. So, the luxury bias doesn't work.
Is it possible that BMWs are actually reliable now?

Doesn't bother me that people hate on BMW- makes them much cheaper for me to buy second hand.

Paint issues at the factory are reportedly fixed as of a couple months ago and honestly for what the car is and what the market is like at the moment It's kind of high production now. Unsold Z s are stacking up all over the country.

The same factory also makes the Ariya where most of the priority lies anyway

Nissan's paint problems, while improved, are not resolved... Ask me how I know.

I went to pick up my white performance a week ago Saturday,when I got to the dealership the car looked great but as I worked my way to the front I noticed odd looking marks on the hood,some were squiggly lines others looked like small animal prints in oblong lines.You couldn't see them if looking straight on but once you got off to an angle under the lighting in the dealership they were all over the hood.Kind of looked like they removed the shipping protection to fast and left adhesive on the hood.They tried to remove some with a type of goo gone citrus cleaner that they use when PDI the car but didn't work.The following Monday they received a bulletin from Nissan Canada stating that some Z cars and Airyia's on certain ships delivered after April 2023 had paint issues.The remedy was to use a specified rubbing compound followed by a polishing compound and finished with a ceramic coating.Needless to say I didn't take the car that day.I told them to take it to a local detailer to perform the work and I would look at it after and decide.I didn't want the dealer doing the remedy.I called the detailer to explain how picky I am and they said they would start by clay baring first and see before proceeding with the remedy.So at this point I'm waiting for a call to go back and inspect the car.I hope it works,the white looks really good on this car with the red interior.The build dateon the car was 10/23.

Mine has good white paint, but the black roof is a mess. It has dots and spots all over it, especially on the little roof spoiler above the brake light. It's also scratched on both sides of the window, clearly from fitting the glass.

I took delivery of mine, because I've already waited over 2 years. They're going to fix it under warranty, but there is a wait for a paint repair shop to do the work. It could be months. Mine is also 10/23.

US Nissan Z Sales Report: Q1 2024
the Z saw the highest quarter of sales since its return with 671 reported sold. This is due to production for the 2024 model being much higher than 2023. Dealer mark ups are also becoming an exception rather than the standard with the increased inventory. All this has contributed to a healthy increase in sales with perspective to this still being a niche car.

I'm going back on Thursday to look at the car,they say it looks really good and ended up ceramic coating the whole car with 3m ceramic coating even though it was only the hood that had the marks.Nissan Canada has paid for the whole job.I also waited just over 2 years from the time I put the pre order deposit down.

my 2024 NISMO is July 23 and its 577th 2024 Z built. I think model year change over is usually June maybe even mid Mayish

if you go back and look at some of the first 2023 Zs that went on sale late summer 2022 some had early spring build dates
