Nissan Z Canadian discussion (owners or soon to be!)

[jc604]

I just want to say Thank you @StrikeS30 for posting about this. I ordered this one July 2022 in Kitchener and I've been waiting 18 months and getting no information about ETA and spiraling into depression.

I immediately grabbed this one you've posted and my dealer suddenly started getting their shit together and said they just now put my order in and I can expect mine in March 2024....

i am pretty confident my dealer lied to me about my order as they did not even put it in and just sat on my deposit for 18 months. It's no coincidence that after I showed them this one, within 24 hours they magically "found" a March '24 Red Performance build for me....

long story short. I have secured my Z at Quebec and flipping the bird on Kitchener.

i am forever thankful to you

i wouldnt believe any dealer offering delivery dates and such, as a previous preorder since january of 2022, some people similar have not received any info on anything in regards to getting the car delivered/built. As of now i would jump on any builds that are spec'd to your liking as they still are not allocating "preorders". did you manage to get it for msrp?

After turning down my pre order car when it came in beginning of Oct. Nanaimo Nissan wanted 6k more than what they lead me to believe for almost 2 years,I was able to put an order in at Campbell River nissan for whatever spec I wanted at MSRP and a March date.

Did they sign off on it with a price? Also if they dont have a vin yet there prob isnt a date settled in place yet judging by other orders that have not been fulfilled

I have a signed order with complete detailed pricing.The build date is March so no Vin number yet.The order bank is now open as of Dec 4 for ordering.They were notified yesterday morning that they had one allotment for a March build.

As previously stated I received my pre order car from Jan 22 in Oct so it had nothing to do with Nissan Canada,it was Nanaimo Nissan that was extremely disappointing by wanting 6k more

I got it for msrp. I ordered 2023 for MSRP as well. The price jumped $5000 roughly for the 2024 that I secured but according to them that’s because it’s not a 2023

from my experience I agree with you they won’t build any pre-orders. Hell even a Nismo that nobody asked for came to the Kitchener dealership before my order came in.

MSRP only went up 2k for all 24 models not 5k

I remember a few years back, every Canadian was like "so glad we don't live in US, Canada has laws to protect vehicle consumers!"
Seems like Canadian dealers (and Nissan.ca it seems) really screwed most, if not all, Canadian pre-order customers....

In my excitement I looked over that! Thank you. I will bring it up to the dealer, that’ll save me $3k. The sales rep told me over the phone it’s MSRP so they better give me that! 64,817 without the red paint, on their website it should be 61,998

Yep they totally ditched the reservation system it appears and following he same model as the US deliveries. Random batches of allocations to the dealerships. Still no manual orders. It's a shame too for all those guys that dropped the bucks at the beginning for an official "reservation" of what they wanted. Even the original order I had in with my dealership that we were able to spec out in the system just before the reservation system went live never got built. Instead we're all kind of stuck now just picking and choosing at random allocations across the country. Which is not bad, but Canada hasn't got very many to choose from and the country is huge! I can't imagine many guys are willing to fly out a thousand miles or more and drive a car back. I was tempted if it's in reason. But, none that have popped up met the exact spec I originally ordered. A lot of cars seem to be autos

I do still have one coming eventually, it has to be in the country somewhere, vin 608. Cars in the 900s are showing up in the states. But now it's December. It'd have to be a nice dry day to drive it home or she's staying in the showroom for a while

I was about to ask yeah where is this order @StrikeS30 kinda odd it hasn’t showed up yet

Yeah it is a bit strange considering all the cars in the 5-6-700s, now into the 8 and 9s have been showing on the lots. Bet you it's stuck at a rail depot or some shit waiting on the next batch heading east. The dealers ETA in the system is December, but he's like who knows they change it all the time lol that and as far as I've researched we're dealing with rail car shortages too
