If you search Nissan Inventory within 500 miles of zip code 92130, you'll find a few black Zs.

There's a performance manual with graphite interior (VIN JN1BZ4BH2PM310777) at Razzari Nissan, Merced, CA.

yeah I think I saw that one. probably driving to connecting states would be my limit at the moment. was looking for nashville atlanta anywhere in VA ect since nothing close to what I want is here in NC at the moment. there is one at a different nashville dealer but price isnt listed which im only assuming its way over MSRP.

As much fun as it'd be, I can't bring myself to drive across country to pick up a car.

If you include Florida, you and your new car can hop on the AutoTrain in Sanford, FL and you'll end up in VA the next morning.

this one is the closest to me but unlisted price makes me not even want to ask

just had to google it as didnt know that was a thing. I would probably suck it up and drive. my luck it would derail

I'm in the USA and have never bought a Nissan, and didn't realize until recently they operate that way. I'm particular about certain functionalities and also paint color. Leaving aside initial supply restrictions, it would be a show stopper for me down the road, if Nissan were unable to deliver the exact vehicle I wanted, in a reasonably easy aggravation free transaction.

You can still get what exactly what you want, you will just have to go to a dealer, tell them and let them locate one from another dealer and swap with them. We have particular people sometimes and we can always find what they want. Worst case is, we have to add one thing here that was missing from the factory (i.e. illuminated kickplates, etc..)

 

[Jughead]

@Jughead are you still going to wait and dealer trade your black Z later in the spring? im still having no luck finding that same car. If you could ever find me a black Z I would make the 6 hour drive.



Yes. I am trading my black one for the blue one with a local dealer. I put in requests for an extra one since mine is "pre-sold", so those dealers with the better turn (days in stock) will get priority over the dealers with 10k markup on the lot for weeks or months on end. Fingers crossed. At 1PM Central today, February CPO (current production order) with April build dates open today. If I can get lucky I will try for another black one . I don't have my hopes up, though.

I wanted Serian blue as well, but got steel gray. Nissan called me to verify that it in transit on a ship. I will have lighting, interior/exterior added at the dealership. Most importantly, no dealer markup. I’m paying sticker only!

Now it’s on a slow train after leaving the Final Assembly plant in Southern California. Over 2 weeks now. I figure it’s because of delays traversing the mountain passes. New arrival date is April 7th

Where is yours going? Mine is on a train from LA too. Wednesday it was in Salt lake city heading to Ohio ( I think it actually goes to Chicago or Cleveland then trucked the rest of the way

Final assembly is just the long beach port. I'm not sure if they install the front chin spoiler or of the dealer does it during PDI

ok probably different trains then lol I thought ours might be sharing a ride!

 

[Thisguy298]

Seeing a trend of dealers claiming either by voice or on website that made to order Nissan Z’s from the factory are available. Thoughts? Also in terms of the many manuals arriving in the east coast, central and west coast; how can we verify if the transmission has been replaced regarding the 2nd gear stop sale? It seems they are flooding in next week through March.

I had one dealer tell me via email that orders should open up in the next month or so. We'll see

I’m leaving it at the dealership for 2 weeks, as I thought that they would like to show it to prospective buyers. In the mean time they will install the new Michelin pilots, and interior/exterior lighting kits. As they are not marking up the price of the car, and gave me first dibs on the Z. They have been really good to me.
