Story today on Carexpert that Nissan confirmed all Proto's for Australia sold out
I thought that happened months ago...? So much vagueness with the release of this car 🤷‍♂️

I don't mind waiting as long as I know I will get a car this year.
Dealers are still being told first deliveries are scheduled for July.. which means cars are built and ready to ship. No idea where our VIN numbers are?!

It did….it’s been sold out for months on Nissans reservation page
Yeah it sold out soon after reservations opened, it's all documented in this thread.

Why would you have three?
Nissans filling orders in the order of them being placed date wise

Are you buying three?

I have two deposits down in the hope one will confirm a car, both refundable and placed at the same time

I went with 3 different dealers to see which one would be the quickest and then refund the other 2

So if there are lots of people like yourself and @peter Nissan will have a lot of inventory floating around if they have ordered based on what was placed
I didn’t do that, because even though the deposit is refundable it could take a month to be processed, plus my deposit was 5k

If correct then my guess is follow the movements of the courageous ace car carrier, this seems to service the east coast. Does anyone know what port does nissan despatches from in Japan.

Thank you! I'll put some time in later to figure out which shipping company Nissan uses 😊
if you hit other regions such as North america and look under company name there is nissan vessels. my guess is that the oceania region for you guys if expecting in july will be updated soon
