August production starts tomorrow. we order tomorrow and Friday, the cars are built between August and September, Japan built cars arrive between September and October. Its 90 days, maybe 120 if you miss the order period and it goes in a month later.

I can check port inventory in the Northeast as well, fresh cars that arrive within 2 weeks.

If you're concerned about these cars get test driven, you should see them techs test driving these things in name of "PDI (Pre Delivery Inspection) ". It will make your heart drop because seeing nothing but a bunch of Altimas and Sentras, when they see one it gets driven HARD. And yes it is a MANDATORY REQUIREMENT per PDI process.

Thanks for the info.

I'm thinking, then, that I may wait until next year to order one. This is going to be a summer-only car for me. Not much point in getting one if, by the time it arrives, it's just going to immediately be put in the garage.

I ordered mine in August and took delivery the first week of December. That was the build process plus shipping time, the car was not even on the line when I made the purchase. The dealer definitely wants to sell what they have, or dealer trade to get you what you want.

I ordered a 350Z back in 2008 and the dealer told me it would take six months. I said it was fine and put down my deposit. After four months, the dealer called, apologized, and said the car they ordered turned out to be the 370Z, which wasn't even released yet. I'm speculating, but perhaps the Z35 is near production?

your dealer lost their mind lol. My full JDM Zele Body kit and Varis Hood are all custom to be made order items only took 12 weeks. So no way it should be 8 months.

My Z took 4 months to get to NJ.

forget overnighting. Dom had his stuff in a matter of minutes. just make sure you put it on your tab at Harry's, and when you're not working there, you're working at Dom's garage. if you can't find the right tools in there mr. quarter mile at a time, you don't belong near a car.

That sounds somewhat absurd. Is that really how long it takes?

you do realize there are alot of nissan dealerships other than the one you've spoken with, right? try searching outside the quarter mile radius.

jhtran13 11-10-2015 03:56 PM

dude lol i bought mine with ~ 10 miles? I know that I would abuse my Z more than the test car drivers so lol
