Alignment for new Z?

It's entirely possible the alignment was off from day one.

This. I've had 0 mile cars that pulled from the dealership. My 2003 350Z Track was like that. Took umpteen visits to multiple dealers and many, many calls to Nissan NA before the culprit was found. Rear toe was out.

Then I've had cars like my 2008 C6 Corvette that ran dead straight and wore all 4 tires evenly, even after coilovers and lowering. Never had to align it, not even once.

Alignment is cheap and worthwhile maintenance, also makes the car more fun to drive

The dealer said there would be no charge for the alignment and of course anything it may need. My previous vehicle was a 2004 beat up Jeep. So the way the Z handles now is amazing to me. It doesn't pull or drift at all even under hard braking. Hopefully like one member said it was off from the factory. I will find out Monday and post results. Thanks for the responses.
