I put a deposit down last April and have been trying to get updates from my local dealer. Info is very limited, after I chased him here is the last one;

“No sales bulletins out yet. But the service training has an intro course out. Looks like same automatic transmission as the Q60 red sport. Different tune and software. Should be more responsive than the red sport”.

I get more details and accurate info here from you guys, so thank you!

That info seems off as the Z is using the new 9 speed and the Q60 has the old 7 speed.

And this is exactly why I wouldn't put a "deposit" down with a dealer, let alone a dealer that doesn't even know the correct info of the new Z that has now been publicly announced and available for months. Either they're making sh*t up to string you along or they have no idea what they're talking about.

Well Dealers in Australia know next to nothing…yet Nissan Aus sent out official reservation invites to anyone who has shown interest, along with an official looking sales promotion. They know they are getting them, so why not put money down….I think in Australia, if you haven’t done so by now, you won’t be getting one….at least not for the first few allocations

I had a dealer in Ontario tell me the Z is “cancelled indefinitely” because of the chip shortage.
Dealers straight up making stuff up now ?
you need to call them up and tell them you have "inside info" from a relative in japan who's a high-ranking nissan executive.

tell him they had hackers buy up all the ps5's sony built for the Christmas holiday so they could rob all the chips out them to put the new z.

help keep the bs rolling...

Got a minor update, “cars are out to journalists, which is a good sign. If we follow the QX60 timeline, the cars were out to the press in June. And arrived 6 months later”

If true, journalists will be doing there reviews and guessing they will be under an embargo not to release any info until Nissan gives them the green light.
