Disagree…My Nissans got like 20-30 cars ( maybe more) sitting in the dealership.
Unsold.
Yet they can’t get the money for a sold Z because they are not being delivered
The dealership I’m at, at present only expects two for the foreseeable future.
So whilst the margin maybe lower…it’s still a margin and a dealer delivery fee that they are nit getting from the 20 sitting idol on the lot
Do those 2 include mine that’s being delivered tomorrow?

No…yours was a surprise packet which strengthens the argument.
If the other two are made sitting and waiting..why send one that wasn’t ordered?
To be honest not a lot in this roll out makes sense

I'm starting to see Zs around, spotted 3 in the last week around eastern suburbs of Brisbane and i don't believe they're demos from any dealership within 50kms.

Nissan certainly don't seem to be allocating in the order they allegedly promised.

Haven't spotted any non-Protos in Sydney yet. Seen about 3 or 4 Protos getting about.

My coupe might able to be spotted for about 15 minutes tomorrow in Perth between dealer and my garage where it will sit for a few weeks before I’m allowed to drive again.

In the town I live in with 1200 population not seen one.

I’ve seen my dealers demo.
Then a mate at the skyline Aust car club meet.

that said too lazy to go back
who bought accessories from a USA dealer. Going back later this month and would not mind grabbing some stuff.

If they see a woman on the side of the road shaking her fist at it that'll be @West Aussie

Well it’s finally here. Dealer drove me home in it and then I snuck a drive around the block. Perfect for what I wanted. Couldn’t be happier. Didn’t see you on the side of the road @West Aussie .

In a rush so instant pics only attached for now.

First thing will be to get those number plates sorted.

Looks great @Hammo25
Congratulations.

Yeah the number plates don’t do anything for it eh…back ones not too bad but front 🤢
I’ve put off ordering mine because I’m still not 100% I’ll ever get it 🤣
Three weeks is a long time to wait just for a nice drive.
It’s gonna drive you nuts

this angle with your curved driveway makes it look like you got the first nissan z SUV.

Very true. I was more worried about the ramp angle on the hump. Recently had the driveway redone to stop flooding off the street, and my A5 sportback only clears with about an inch, but that does have a longer wheel base. Not sure the ordered Mustang Dark Horse will clear it (or the approach angle into my garage).
