I have finally received my '13 after about a month sitting at the dealer trying to figure out some politics with Nisaan Corporate. I'm absolutely in love with it and it's slightly revised look. I can say compared to my '11, the quality of the interior seems a bit better. Also the new revised suspension is softer and gives a more comfortable ride. The steering seems a slight bit lighter.
I'm overall very happy with the car. Trust me, the car does look ugly in pictures but in person it looks much better than the previous ones. I like it much better than my '11.
I'll update with pics later.

There is some irony with this statement

That's good to hear.

I'll hopefully be putting in my order in the next week or two, once I know how long my HARP refinance is going to take (approx. 30 days I was told).

Then the three month wait begins.

I was supposed to test drive the 13 but got side-tracked with family emergency then fell ill to the point i was in the ER. The test drive never happened....
But thanks for the two main descriptions i needed... I owned an 09 and had an accident which led to the 2011.My biggest complaint about the 11 was the spring rate was slightly softer than the 09. IMHO Sports cars should ride stiff and not soft. The steering in the Z is stiff but i prefer muscle car steering stiffness, which is about 10% stiffer than the Z still.
That said, a softer suspension and lighter steering is definitely a turn off imho... If the Z35 follows suit a lightened steering and soft suspension? I will most likely go with a different sports car instead of the Z35. You can compensate the weak suspension easily but not weak steering. That's a big enough deal breaker for me. Thats why i left the G37s to the Z. Light steering made me sell and buy the 09 Z

Thanks for the light review.
