Other than huge markups...if the Z will be a chore to attain, I'm definitely looking elsewhere. I need a car by summer time. There's plenty other places that i can go to. Maybe revisit the Z down the line.

That's the direction I'm leaning towards as well. I can order a Miata right now with zero markups and ETA is 10 weeks. The Z...? Who da fook knows?!

I can always come back to the Z later on if I'm so inclined. The issue is I know that if I get a Miata I will become attached and won't wanna part with it, lol.

The agony of waiting for the Z in the USA: waiting to find out exactly how much more waiting we need to do!
Yup that's exactly what this is. Look at Acura and the Integra for example. Yes I know no one here is getting that car(lol!!) but at least they know how to release a car. They announced not too long ago, they have deposits placed and will be in dealers by spring. Nissan? I guess this is like rocket science to them.

The Tundra release was quicker too.

Nissan must be channeling it's inner Elon Musk.......

Hey, cut Nissan some slack. They're not accustomed to high demand beyond the GTR.

We should have a poll: What will the highest mileage on a Canadian or Aussie Z when the first Z is actually delivered to an American customer?

My guess: 50k miles....

My only complaint is very few options for the solid color roof. I wonder what knucklehead at Nissan thought white should only come with a black roof. Ridiculous

Funny, I was thinking about that earlier. What the hell else does Nissan have?

It is looking bleaker and bleaker that I'll have a cool car this summer to enjoy with my 4yr old son. He's really into cars and was hoping this will be our thing and to help establish another car lover in this world.

86's are hard to come by, and the M240i is an option, but I really want maybe one of the last real manual transmission cars. New mustang will be out until next year too, which will also be a major competitor to the Z. More power, V8, and decent chassis with perhaps finally a decent interior.
