Hands Up all the Aussies

[jpw]

Finally, after initial enquiries and order in Sept 21, I've received the beast. And what a beast it is, love the hell out of it already. Did about 250km's today showing it off to a few choice people. Be daily for a month or so to break it in, then will use a bomb as my "to and from work" daily (and supermarkets!) and drive the Z once a week to work and on the weekends.

I've got my list of improvements to come already, only other thing i would've like to seen on it is those blind spot camera's that pop up on the dash. Not NECESSARY, but wow, they'd make a big difference.

Hold tight people, it's sure as hell worth it.

Nice pics. My blue car is arriving in a week or so. Can I ask when your car was built? Mine was apparently built at the end of January - and I am only now about to receive it.

Awesome!! The wait is nearly over!
I got a call yesterday asking me how I wanted them to mount my custom plates very courteous of them. Hoping to collect the car late next week

How are you going to mount the number plates?

Mine was the same, end of Jan build. That's how they're doing things right now; Z's are limited in number, so my guess is the higher volume stuff like the Qashqai's are getting the spots on the ships and Z's are getting pushed back. With the waiting list, if someone like you cancels, the dealer lets Nissan Aus know and they allocate it to whoever's next in the list.

Single data point, from another country, YMMV: Mine was build December, 2022, arrived in the US April 11, 2023, and I took delivery April 28th, 2023.

I ordered a spare front number plate mount so I can cut it down and have a play with mounting options. I'll pop some pics up once I'm done

My original order/contract was dated 18 December, 2020 for a 400Z. Contract updated later to specific vehicle details ie, Seiran blue manual - Queensland. Still waiting - but vehicle came in on Dugong Ace and will be at dealer in 7 - 10 days.
