Your "3 month limit" might be optimistic for this particular car. I think most, if not all, are waiting considerably more than 3 months for factory orders. Good luck.

Agreed! How long did you have to wait 6MT?

6MT 07-10-2009 11:39 AM

83 days and still waiting. The only dealer update from Nissan was "built, in port" in early June. Since then, nothing.

So you ordered yours around mid April. Mine was around 1 months b4 you.

Probably give it another 2-3 weeks and your car should be in your hands.

Enjoy

YamahaR6, You mentioned that your Nissan dealer was able to give you the status or your car. I just got off the phone with my dealer and they have no idea what the status of my order is. They say they have no way of finding out either. They also don't know if i will get an 09 or 2010 car. I think it is pretty obvious that it will be a 2010. :mad:

NXTAZEE 07-14-2009 07:46 PM

I feel like complaining to Nissan Canada of the lack of info, available to the customer, on a car that I'm dropping $50,000 + on.

YamahaR6 07-14-2009 07:47 PM

They should be able to check on NNAnet.com. At least they can have the order number for you.

Check out this thread:

Ask them to give you a print out of the status.

Hope this helps.

Is that site available to Canadian dealers?

not sure... i didn't bother asking for an exact date for fear of disappointment if it didn't arrive on that day. all i got was "it's on the train, and it'll be here next week."

I didn't get the sports package tho. (M6 black w/persimmon + NAV)

matt2112 07-16-2009 03:24 PM

:tiphat:

I'm actually not too far (but not THAT close). Bayview and 16th is the closest intersection from where I live.

Maple Nissan is on my way home from one of my jobs.

I have yet to see a 370 on the road yet. Kinda makes me feel better about the car. Lots of 350s this summer but I think because I've been looking out for them.

matt2112 07-17-2009 12:07 AM

i live about 5 min from maple nissan...

becaise of a recommendation, i went to thornhill first... nice people, but not the right deal.

maple nissan next... didn't catch a good vibe off the salesmen.

finally, woodbridge nissan... great salesmen, great deal ($1500 off msrp), and i signed on the spot.

btw, any recommendations for clear bra and tint installation?

I dont know too much about clear bras' but my friend has one and the tan line it left behind, after only one summer - looks down right stupid; and he knows it.

I see that it does however "protect" the car from a lot of bullcrap. Where we live isn't the most developed place in the GTA, if you goto places a little north, like clublink north; you'll most likely see some rocks and grit diggin into the front and sides, just because of lack of ubanization. The ETR is also always filled with dump trucks hullin crap from some house they just built in vaughan/richmond hill.

As for the tint - I asked a cop I know about it and even he couldn't give me a clear answer. He said it has to be able to allow "70% of light to pass through it" as well as an unofficial "I have to be able to clearly identify the person driving as well as the front passanger of the vehicle".

As for me, I look like every other asian prick that drives a sports car so I don't want to give the P0liCe any other reason to pull me over.

If you to end up getting it. DO NOT goto the dealership. I'm pretty sure they overcharge. Lifetime or not, I'm not paying $400 for tint on only three full sized windows.

I paid $200 for all five windows... cash deal but my friend is getting his '09 Jetta wagon done for $300 over the counter and that's a lot more glass than the 370Z.... $400 you should be getting some "extras" for that price ;p
