The hell of trying to get into a 370Z

I didn't go through it once, I went through it twice... and I was way more flexible than you. The only thing I was sure of was auto sport. I had 3 different colors. Base or touring was up in the air pending on how a dealer deals. I personally feel navs have no place in sports cars so I didn't want one...
You would think my flexibility would have gotten me a Z fairly quick. Its an agonizing experience. And from experience I'm telling you... living in this deep south 5 state hellhole of car purchasing... ORDER! You will be so much happier.

Like unknown said, i thought my options would be easy to come by (Auto,sport package, splash guards, all the mats, illuminated kick plates) but the color I wanted has become rare too. Monterey Blue. I've noticed touring is what Nissan makes the most of (Common colors like brilliant silver,magnetic black, pearl white) , not specifically what i wanted for my 370Z. Nissan already doesn't produce a lot of 370Z's because of the impracticalness of them, and the economy (sports cars really are looked at as disposable income items every time there's an economic downturn). Trust me, just order and you can do this, the key is patience.

I confirmed this with Nissan USA customer service, and they pulled the dealership information and confirmed that yes, they were being straight with me. So unless the dealership has them on a pay-roll or something, yes, that is true. Nissan apparently is NOT! like Ford or GM where you can just waltz in and order something. I have trouble wrapping my mind around it, but everyone confirms that this is true.

Will see if they have something in their network, though. It's possible I guess.
