I imagine most people will have had their dealer calls on their coupes by now to reconfirm. :)

Yes.

Nissan Australia is requiring a reconfirmation as Coupe allocation will occur in the next little while.

We are getting close to having ETA's. :)
I haven’t had any calls…might call my dealer to make sure they have reconfirmed. He is new….and the boss is on holidays …perfect storm ?

Update…just called him…he said yes, they have been asked to confirm but he didn’t bother calling the first few on his list because we bug him all the time ( in different words) and knew we were still in, so my order has already been reconfirmed.
He is hoping to have ETAs soon

I’m willing to bet that a lot of dealers won’t call incase some has pulled the pin and then they don’t get the car…this is entirely my opinion only nothing factual to base it on
But imagine being these dealers and not having any or very very few dealer delivery fees come in for almost two years. That’s why they are struggling to hold onto staff ATM

Dealer just confirmed order with me, they got 6 cars on the first allocation but still do not know the ETA of the cars

I believe WA is only expecting around 20 cars total (25 dealers in WA)…gonna take a long while to clear that back log at this rate

Oh also Newstead Eagers Nissan (Brisbane) appears to have a blue Z as a demo. Possibly the one I posted earlier out at the port

Got windows tinted and paint/interior protection done today. The cleanest it will ever be. The guys at the shop were heaping a lot of love on the car.

Looks fantastic, what type of paint protection did you get

I went with their graphene and ceramic paint protection which is supposedly stronger than the just the ceramic protection.

They were trying to sell me on PPF which does sound great but it's pretty exxy (around $6k for the whole vehicle).

I’ve never hassled them and I haven’t had a call either. Will need to give them a call tomorrow. Thanks for all the leg work with our dealer.

Sounds like a smart decision. $6k (or even th difference) pays for a lot of detailing over the years.

I won’t be getting one of those as an early June 22 order - unless of course I’m high up the list for a Gun Metallic, Black M/T and they happen to get 20 of those.
