Proto Spec numbers? Or more?
Didn't get specifics just got the impression they will be very hard to come by and many dealers won't even have access to them.

all I can say is im pulling out all stops doing a full court press to get one and even though im cautiously optimistic it still feels like an uphill battle. If these cars all end up in youtuber bros hands I really give up

Updated with data collected on July 14th (compared to July 7th).

Using the zip codes in this V2 area covered map here's a spreadsheet that shows the inventory within the circles (more or less):

The number of cars in the area covered increased from 149 to 272 (+123 cars).

Could be. This big influx seems to be filling in gaps in the serial number sequence I've noticed in the past. I keep looking for 2024s, but I haven't seen one yet.

ive talked to a few dealers already with allocations and they dont expect their 24s until early october. I think they will start popping up in the system maybe 45(ish) days before might see VINs in August?

The red performance Z at Premier Subaru in Connecticut has now been "slashed" from $65,299 in June to $63,315 now. Glad to see no one is biting so far. I like the red Z, but no way will pay that ridiculous mark up. A few more Z's are coming to the Houston area and dealers seem to be reasonable on what they are asking, but it varies from dealer to dealer and who you talk to as we all know.

I sure hope Nissan sorts out the issue with red paint because that car is a stunner.

Keep calling to make some offers. You may get lucky and get a call back like I did with a good price.

I checked the Carfax & minor damage was reported. I have visions of one of the service guys doing donuts in the back parking lot and clipping something.

Not in the car biz. What does such a restriction mean?
