'Vert Arrivals?

havnap · 09-25-2009, 01:36 PM

Nissan really is about to miss a prime convertible season if they don't hurry up and get the cars to the dealerships. I've read a little bit that they are showing up in some dealers up North- anyone hear any rumors about Texas?

le sigh. I wanna get some seat time!

I'm expecting mine to be here in two or three weeks...I don't know what they had in mind with not selling them until now...I suppose they didn't want the roadster to overshadow the Nismo but introducing a roadster in the fall seems odd timing at best.

I'm kinda surprised that the dealers are in the dark as much as they are. I've asked around Dallas and I get this "2 or 3 weeks"...that was 3 weeks ago. HA! No cars yet...

the Nissan rep had one at Z nationals this weekend and said they were in transit to dealers right now.

FuszNissan · 09-30-2009, 09:11 AM

They are out, just not everywhere. Mine will be here on 10/15

There are 51 Z Roadster Tourings on the ground in the Northeast right now! Not one with a Sport Pckg though

What's up with that? I don't think I have had heard much positive feedback on the base wheels. SEND the "Sports"...

koeppelnissan · 10-29-2009, 11:08 AM

I find it very wierd that there are no Sports Pckg and almost no Navigation cars. Also none yet in the Dark Cherry with the wine interior. I've had a deposit for over a month on a loaded Dark Cherry and Nissan is telling me I'll get the car in February

Robert_Nash · 10-29-2009, 02:05 PM

Mine should be delivered sometime next week; we've got several at the plant with the sports package and at least three of the Black Cherry; we also have at least a couple with Nav.

That said, I've no idea how generally difficult or easy it is for dealers to get roadsters with the sports package and/or navigation.

I ordered the Black Cherry with Sports Package and Navigation...we'll see what configuration I wind up with when they deliver it!

I still haven't seen one. I think we have decided on BlkCh/Wine/Bor/Sport/Nav but we want to see it first. Won't be ready to buy for a while but are living vicariously through you all.

FuszNissan · 10-30-2009, 12:01 PM

Most of them will be hitting Nov/Dec.

today to let me know that they have one on the floor. No details, but I will be going by sometime this week to take a look. I will take my camera if I don't go straight from work(no cameras allowed).

We received 2 Z convertibles today. Whats up with the antenna on the trunklid?

What a good looking car in person, though. Every bit as nice as the pics I saw.

What's up is that they were likely looking for a quick, cheap place to put the antenna...my suspicion is that since the rear deck lid was already unique to the roadster it was cheapest to put in there than do the changes necessary to put it, for example, on one of the rear quarter panels.

It looks very odd. I never noticed that in any pics before but it stands out pretty bad in person!
