where did you get this info from?Yes, people have been told online reservations for the public open on the 3rd of February with official pricing released early March.
So that is 3536 lbs for the MT Performance vs. 3485 for the MT Sport, a difference of 51 pounds. About what I expected, not bad at all.I noticed that there was some text under the blue TBD box for the Base curb weight on the Performance/Proto section. Converting the PDF to plain text reveals the following:
Performance(MT) / ProtoSpec: 1604 (3536 lbs)
Performance(AT) / ProtoSpec: 1634 (3602 lbs)
Good luck with that query, I suspect that the honest answer is too proprietary to be made public, pricing strategies and buildout choices are based on confidential costing and sales/marketing research.This is why we are asking Dan about it…it doesn’t really make sense.
If it’s a pricing thing the bigger screen at factory would cost perhaps a couple of hundred dollars extra. When you are about to spend 70k on a car…$200 extra is nit bound to break the bank.
Australia usually get top US level car, with minor changed. For instance the one we are supposedly getting is very close to the performance model, (as well as Proto)so sounds like you guys in Canada ….so the question is why skimp on the screen, when the interior technology update is one of Nissans selling points, and one of the reasons for a new model (370z interior is outdated now)
It makes little sense
It says "Base curb weight" on the spec sheet. If it was dry I really might look elsewhere ?happy that we finally have a number. now do we know if this is the dry weight or curb weight?
I am not going to pretend I'm an auto manufacturing expert, but TBC in any other sense would translate to "To Be Confirmed". Also interesting that those are the two colors that were revealed first, so kind of surprised it hasn't been solidified yet? Or maybe they were gauging consumer reaction via Auto Show, etc.? I wasn't asked what I thought about it, however, so don't know if it's worth putting too many eggs in that basket.On the spec sheet it lists Seiran and Ikazuchi as "TBC" paints instead of solid, metallic, pearl, etc. I looked up what this means but don't think that it's the answer I'm looking for. Does anyone know?
Got ya, I wasn't thinking about TBC meaning that since the are using TBD elsewhere. Maybe those 2 paints are just so beautiful that they don't even know how to classify them yet? ?I am not going to pretend I'm an auto manufacturing expert, but TBC in any other sense would translate to "To Be Confirmed".
