Pro Tip: For those trying to special order the NISMO, and you don't want to wait the full 90 days, see if your dealer can do a vehicle exchange with the dozen or so NISMO's already out in the wild... or exchange the allocation slot. You should NOT have to pay extra for that kind of service. #1: It happens all the time. #2: The work involved is mostly the manager doing an inventory/order search, phone calls, and some paperwork. It's not rocket science.
Learned some more interesting info about preordering Nissan cars.
When you factory order a Stingray from Chevy, your order requirements are sent to the factory and they build the car for you specifically. This is because there's so many combination of options someone can get.
When you factory order a 370Z from Nissan, your order requirement is put on a waiting list. Because the Z has a much more limited range of option combinations, sooner or later the factory will build a car to your specifications. When that happens, and if you're next in line on the waiting list for that option combination, it will be sent to your dealer. The car isn't build specifically for you... it just happens to be the kind of car you want.
