Is anyone else having a hard time finding a Z

To the guys who searched nationally, how did you do that? I tried Google for the body code and exterior color, spent several hours searching dealer inventories, but it was haphazard, slow, and for reasons only Google understands, certain dealers keep coming up, and nothing from thousands of other dealers. My dealer says he's looking??? Most frustrating was several dealers leave off key info like interior color, and most don't list options. I'd rather not wait until June, and Roberts VPP expires on 3/31.

I think the only 2 I used were

New & Used Cars for Sale, Auto Dealers, Car Reviews and Car Finance Advice

and

New Car Research - Research New Cars at AutoTrader.com - AutoTrader.com

370's are pretty rare here in Australia still. Our major carsales website only has 8 available in my entire state, new and used combined. I haven't actually seen another 370 on the road yet.

1) the RRP here new is about $81k AUD
2) they have only been out for 9 months
3) flying out and driving back isn't practical as it's like a 4-5hr flight interstate.

I was after Carbon Silver but couldn't find one, settled for Brilliant Silver.

A positive point here though is that we only have 1 model available which is all inclusive (sports/audio/nav), 6MT and 7AT of course. So there isn't a even a choice of options, it's everything or no car at all!
