I drove my wife's Z around all day yesterday. Hoping to see another Z.

None :( When I think about if, I've probably only ever seen 1 other, ever.

I'm Brisbane, Australia.

Pinging this thread again.

Other than car meets/shows and your own car, has anybody seen a Z in the wild?

I still haven't.

Fellow Socal people, dont feel bad. I have only seen 3. I see more Lambos than Zs. I even saw an electric Hummer the other day (first for me). I am on the road a lot too.

None in the wild yet, weird! Where are these owners? Hopefully someone in our local GroupZ will show up in one soon.

Still haven't seen a single one.
Driving a couple thousand miles to Florida for vaca (in a Honda Fit, though), been keeping my eyes open but I haven't seen a Z so far. Probably too late in the season anyways.

Still yet to see one in SWFL. Evidently the dealership in Naples has had 3, to this point, but I'm guessing that they weren't sold to locals. How silly is it to more regularly see LaFerraris than bloody Zs?

About 1500 Z's sold, total, in the US...2022 and 2023 model years. I'm sure there is some regional variation but I think it's likely that most of us in the US will not be seeing them around in the foreseeable future.

Haven't seen another Z in New Zealand and I've had mine since March 2023...

In Brisbane, Queensland, Australia: a few weeks back we had 5, maybe 6 new Z's in one location. That's the most (owner driven) i've seen in one place. Brisbane is also one of the major port, capital cities where they arrive too.

Mark is a member and drives the Red, mine is the Proto. There was a dark grey metallic and another Proto that turned up later.


I have also just realised this is the Wild Spotting thread 😅
I have seen one blue in the wild, in my suburb. Another Proto in a city across from me. Still very rare to see a wild one here.

Came up on a yellow one last night and asked the guy how long he had it. He said “they’ve” had it for a few months now and that it’s being used to test parts. Found out the guy works at Mishimoto and it’s their test car.
