I'm with you, OP. I also live in California and I wouldn't buy a Z with the front plate drilled on already. It seems as if it's a hit or miss issue. What I mean is that I see random cars like IS250, 350z, G35, etc. with no front plate and no holes (evidence that the plate was on at one point or another) and the cars were being driven by older ladies who wouldn't care for such a small issue like front plate.

I know that the dealership will make you sign a waiver stating that they're not responsible if you get pulled over w/o a front plate and I'm OK with that.

It's funny because dealerships do not dare put front plates on expensive cars, ie E9x M3, M5, M6, AMG's, etc. because they know that this can potentially cause the customer to walk out on the deal.
