News on BIG 2027 Z Production changes for the US

[Big D]

Here is some additional news and context about the 2027 Z production for the US. The rumor of Nissan shifting to a build to order style production with the Z was true. 2027 will be very limited and dealers will be able to order on average just 3 Zs for this model year. It is yet to be seen if this is Nissan sun setting the RZ34 right after its first major facelift. The good news is initially it seems the tan interior is available on a variety of colors not just the new green. Speaking of that green it is called "Unryu Green" in Japan but has been changed to "Shinkai Green" for the US market. As of posting this it cannot be ordered and there is no available color code. These might be hard to aquire early. Green will be produced starting in June 2026

As for the NISMO the US gets all the 2027 upgrades ive gone over on here previously but wireless charging is a additional small update.
Again this seems to mark a real shift for how the Z will be sold in the US . This will not be 2024 all over again so if you want one of these be proactive

Nissan made significant promotion of the Shinkai green. Even painted preproduction cars. Now the color is in limbo.

just had a conversation with NISMO NICK and the only color a manual NISMO can be ordered in is black currently. also all colors for the premium are now on constraint.

NISMOs are still supposed to arrive sometime in July or August with premiums pushed back a while with some arriving in late summer and mostly into the fall

for reference he has over 60 2027 Zs incoming but only 6 NISMOs thats how rare they are gonna be.

My dealer is likely getting me Red/Black variant M/T. I asked for Pearl White/Black, but they said it's unlikely, so I accepted the Red.

They don't even have an invoice for the car yet or know what MSRP will be.

Hi everyone, I'm a new member here. Great to read all the available information so thank you.

NOTE TO DEALERS: I live in Southern California and am interested in the 2027 Nismo in white. If/when they are available, please let me know (provided that there is no markup). My local dealer has tried to order but has not had any success in any color. Thanks!

Hello and welcome! For connections a few here have had good luck with Nismo Nick (FB Nismo Nick Scherr) on locating Nismos and other Z trims. He's not in So Cal, Arizona I believe, but can find one for you. Specifically looking for the Nismo Manual or the more available Auto?

Hi trackratZ, thank you for your response! Regarding your question, I'm interested only in the Manual. I've been toying with the idea of the Lotus Emira MT as well (and a couple of other cars) but the Nismo is at the top of my list. I don't quite understand why NissanUSA hasn't updated their website to show the 2027, nor why dealers can't place orders. Maybe in time?

There is no set date for the release of the 27 Z that I have seen. Manufactures don't like updating their website or having dealers take orders until everything is finalized and has reached a set date.
