I think Prix Car are just interstate transport, I don't think they hold cars. will have a squizz

In NSW Prix Car have a holding yard in Minto.

Takes about 3-4 weeks from off the boat to showroom.
If they ain't here now we're looking at September delivery

I’ve been told customers ‘can‘ be in their cars within 10 days from the ship docking.

@jezzza colleague of mine had to wait for over 4 weeks to get his Mercedes C300 to be cleared from port. Genuinely hope this doesn’t happen with the Z’s

Wifes last car (I've never bought new before)

they found one on a boat on the way here and she had it in 2 weeks, so that matches up nicely

Suppose it all depends on if the warfies are on strike that week or not ?

Was told on my last update (seems awhile back now) that dealer allocations would be known in July. Its looking a bit grim though, isn't it? I'll be back on the 3rd of August and if it's still radio silence, I think that would've been a sufficient amount of patience to display so it'd be time for a call I'd say.

Feels like the year is just slipping away currently.

I had a friend wait on BMW recently and this was the time frame quoted and ended up being the reality

I went for another look this arvo

I stand corrected. Prix Car had a ton of cars. No Zs I could see. But it was hard with the setting sun

 

[peter]

i just sent an email to Wheels magazine asking if they had any information regarding a road test of the Z, as they had been quite since the price announcement.

Really, is this what it has come down to?
Why are we forced into contacting magazines, staking out holding pens, stalking shipping movement pages.

Why can’t Nissan just keep us informed ….getting beyond a joke
No news about VIC viewing either. If that went ahead today surely someone would be posting here, or on Facebook or even an article…but nothing

 

[Ballast Scorcher]

It was beyond a joke some time ago now.

 

[peter]

Just saw a Facebook post that someone had gotten an updated contract and that their dealer estimated October deliver

 

[Beard]

Chatted to my dealer in Brisbane. He said he was expecting July but that he doubting that will happen now ?. He is also under the impression he would know as soon as the car was on a boat.

I have a updated contract for manual proto, still no VIN. Dealer says I am allocated a proto along with another customer who has an auto.

Yeah, but that guys info is a bit shifty…I mean his dealer sent him the link to build a car for prices, something we had weeks ago.
He also says, possibly November, hopefully September so it’s clear dealers still know nothing, but I’m guessing considering this one didn’t even know about the online builder they know less than some others.

This is what I mean….know one truly knows anything

A couple of dealers have said they are already in the boat…weather they are or not is another thing
