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.

Congrats! Car looks awesome. Good one getting 250km on in a day, must have been fun showing it off. I’ll be trying to knock the break-in K’s over pretty quick as well.

This week's plan: pick up Tuesday, day off Wednesday to wash/clay/polish, then road trip this weekend to Eden NSW. So I should be posting a few up soon!
…my bad - I need better glasses. I read Tuesday as “today’. I did think it odd that a dealer would do a delivery on a Sunday.

This was more or less the same. Dugong Ace docked on the 4th, delivery on the 21st, 2 and a half weeks is phenomenal. I think any Melbourne people taking delivery on this shipment got so lucky, docking at AAT instead of Webb likely has shortened the process by up to 2-4 weeks

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.

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 ??
