Q&A with Nissan US Director of Corporate Communications, Dan Passe - Submit your questions for discussion!

A) options will be limited at launch. Can’t speak to year 2 but for 2023 models it’ll be slightly limited.

B) expected to be near the current car (maybe a bit more) - will release when homologation complete.

Thanks, apprec the timelines, will watch for upcoming updates.

We can assume more color options at least when comes to ordering and in the configurator?

@Dan_Passe is there only 240 special editions made? If I cant get one, can I still get the car in yellow with the painted calipers?

Yes only 240 Proto special editions for the US. You can still get the car in yellow on the other trims, it's called Ikazuchi Yellow. The yellow calipers I believe are only for the special edition. Otherwise you'll get red if you get the performance trim.

I would imagine you could get touchup paint and paint them yellow yourself. Or maybe somebody will make a clip on caliper cover that would be yellow.

Do you have any insight on what spec will be available in Australia?

not yet. US is first market for reveal. More specs soon.

absolutely. There’s 3 solids and 6 two-tones - you’ll be able to see them all soon.

Dan, any word yet on if no lift shifting is going to be included with the 6 speed manual? Would be helpful to not lose boost between gears.

Why are so many of you guys on this forum absolutely obsessed with the Supra? Lets just enjoy ICE sport cars while we can before they become electric.

Almost every thread on this forum has someone mentioning the Supra.

It was tongue and cheek... You should see how Zupra guys talked about the Z lol.

Some of them seem to have a change of heart after the covers came off.

Unfortunately "Spring 2022" is all we can say right now - hopefully we can get more specific soon.

For me the biggest disappointment is the LSD being restricted to the performance model. Any chance you guys would consider making it an option on the base model?

I've conveyed this suggestion to some of the product planning / execs on-site, will continue to follow up. But right now, it's as stated - LSD on Performance model for 2023 model.
