2012 z

[Becca]

I got a call from my dealer today that they are beginning to take orders for the 2012s. He should be calling me back tomorrow with the specifics. Anyone know what to expect? Any new colors or change to the body or under the hood?

[Nissanboy]

No idea but very curious!

It's probably no changes from 2011. Maybe the change in MSRP.

Can you update us with those specs? thanks!

[Becca]

The moment I get them! I'm waiting for the dealer to call me back with the info. All i know so far is the persimmon interior is still available.

[ichris14]

nvm

[Becca]

I heard from them again- said the car had no changes, with the exception there might be different color combinations available, but the same colors as previous years.

[ichris14]

like interior and exterior color combinations?

What does this mean? Is there a difference between 2012 manual transmission and previous roadsters? According to the above list, the manual is still offered. I don't get it...

[Becca]

Thank you! Any changes to colors? Any chance the yellow is back? I had heard different combinations, but the same colors.
