Unless I want white, red, blue or yellow, of course. ?
Unlikey to get a red, but plenty of the others floating around. You could pick up any of these as new, a demo or near new pretty easily as long as you don't want a coloured interior

There are 19x White Blue or Yellow on Carsales with <2000km on the clock

Your not going to believe this but this is the car I had a deposit on to buy as demo, at the time my local dealer did not have a delivery date for my order and this was my back up plan. My order came through unexpectedly and I cancelled the deposit on this car. Cant believe it still has not sold

Ughhh...

Please note - the interior of the Z is very much scratch prone..!!

The cupholder area in the center console (see heated seat buttons)... the door panels, the boot space that's not lined with fabric... the side of the seats should your boots (RM Williams) braise against them.

Can I ask fellow Australian owners... this is my doing - I was wiping my dash board with a soft cloth but my Apple Watch, you know that new chunky one... scratch the inside of the windscreen... A fine 5-6cm wide but very, very thin.

Thoughts? Can it be removed.

If you google there are some products that say they will remove fine scratches, but try this first
Apply a small amount of whitening toothpaste, which is slightly more abrasive than regular toothpaste, to a soft, clean cloth. Then, buff the scratched glass in small circular motions. The grit in the toothpaste is enough to remove small scratches from tempered glass.

Turns out a new front bar is surprisingly cheap from Nissan and they have them in the Melbourne warehouse. 613 for the unpainted bar and 200ish for the grille. Few hundred for paint and its still going to come in under my excess.

That's pretty good considering a front bar from Z1 is 542 us, the grill is in two portions Upper and lower.
