These's more radio silence now than ever before! No more "expect an allocation call very soon" or "your car should be here next month". I reckon dealers have given up on stringing us along.A year and a half. Early April 2021
I am in the same boat, I was told my proto was on the water 2 weeks ago, I can only assume it was on the prestige ace. I don't have anything from my dealer and I don't think they even have a VIN. I am based in Tassie so are probably a good 3 weeks behind you in the queue.My proto came off the boat in the Nissan AU post (Prestige Ace) and I still don't have a delivery date from PrixCar to the dealer. Brisbane was the first arrival for the vessel (17th), so it stands to reason that if we don't have these cars yet, then the rest of the country doesn't.
*shrug*
Unofficially, my dealer told me that if it hasn't been booked by now, it probably won't be until Tuesday next week at earliest - so again, earliest I may see it in person is like end of next week.
Just checking it hadn't changed since the last 18 times you've said itA year and a half. Early April 2021
this is where I was at so bought the GS300 for a 12 monthly driver.I am in the same boat, I was told my proto was on the water 2 weeks ago, I can only assume it was on the prestige ace.

I have made the decision today that if I don't have a concrete delivery date by COB Friday, I am going to pull the order. My dealer has been fantastic and kept me updated even when there was no update, they have bent over backwards to help, but I have sold my daily driver based on a promise Nissan Australia have not delivered and as much as I love the Z, I have pretty much given up on taking delivery.
I am now in a position to either rent a car for an undefined period, buy a runabout for 10k or replace the Z with something I can have delivered now or a second hand car. This is not Nissan's, my dealers or any one else's fault but mine, its just bad timing.
Hey mate, I'm not 100% sure, but I *think* that all Nissan dealers have access to the same database for allocations. When I got told of mine, my dealer actually sent me a screenshot of it. It had the VIN, Vessel, ETA (of the vessel) etc.I am in the same boat, I was told my proto was on the water 2 weeks ago, I can only assume it was on the prestige ace.

Boulder Grey supposedly arriving at Ipswich later this week with demo drives starting next week. Dealers should know where your cars are if they can see their own demos...
I agree, and this is what is most disappointing ….like I said, at the very least an email outlining time lines or apologising for delays should be sent.These's more radio silence now than ever before! No more "expect an allocation call very soon" or "your car should be here next month". I reckon dealers have given up on stringing us along.
Dealers pay for every enquiry on CarSales. Wonder how many tyre kickers will cost them $$.well we know where the one that just sold in vic went
