i wonder if they count all of the preorders and factory ordered into that figure just to beef up there marketing technics to draw more attention to the z...

not complaining, cause i ordered one just wonder if they use our numbers to manipulate their output for the month of Feb.

it also doesnt help us get discounts on the z. if its selling so good they wont need to offer incentives or rebates.

+1. I've seen quite a few 350s on the lots and they have $2500 Nissan cash back right now plus whatever the dealer is offering.
