I don't know if I can realistically see 15+ Z's sitting at each dealership like I saw with the 350z's anytime soon, although it would be great for us as buyers.

The real turn off is that, granted there aren't many different trims of the 370 as there were on the 350, it would be a pain to settle for something else or wait months to order the model/trim you want.

Its about time for these auto manufacturers are forced to cut down on their production. All those new cars and trucks piled by the tens of thousands each year at every dealer, that everyone knew, there was no way in hell they were all going to be sold.

I say just build the car you want online, fax details to your (car guy) dealer, wait a couple of months for the build time and get your car. We purchase most of our vehicles in this fashion..We seldom step foot on a dealers lot. My wife ordered her past 335 and her current 328 by phone in about 10mins.

Imo dealers should only have demos on their lots.. Like Porsche is doing with the 911 turbo (built to order).

Lastly I think it's for the best, as the less Z's (or any fav car) on the road the better.

I think the dealerships will get a decent amount of Z's within the couple months. They definetly won't treat the 370 as the GTR. Sooooo, don't be scurrrrrrrrrrrrrred if your broke right now!

Don't worry man, there won't be any shortage of Z. It won't sell like Wii !
have a lil patience & save up some moolah, you'll be fine.

It will probably end up like the 2008 350! No sarcasm intended!

Lol I'm not broke at all. When I buy the 370z, the car will be paid off before I leave.

But what fun would be to buy it now...no aftermarket parts are out for it yet.

Like everyone else, I'd want the best deal possible and I'd like to avoid ordering the car again. I almost went crazy waiting for my 335i to be built.

Can you elaborate on this? I don't know much about the '08 350z.

I'm guessing they're just sitting at dealerships and not moving? Sorry I can't view the links..posting from the cell.

The links: Several 2008's are still sitting on the lots! They failed to sell because people waited for the 2009 model! Plus people didn't like the hump-nose-hood(2008)!
Now we have people who do not like the headlites & taillites(2009), they want to wait for the 2010, to see the changes(if any,I doubt it)!

I would expect a "refresh" after 3 years and a new model in 6.

The reason the 2008's are sitting on lots is mostly due to the economy. And don't count on Nissan changing the headlights or tailights for 2010.
