Are we sure they are standard? Because their latest catalogue still shows the roadster as the only one having the 19's, the coupe is still listed with the 18's

I agree. I used to hold Nissan in quite high regard, but now after this whole 19" wheel debacle and being lied to from the dealers from the start, I feel the brand of "Nissan Australia" has been tained.
They'll update the spec list as soon as the info about the 19" is public.

I am already in the process of demanding a free upgrade and justifying it as a customer relations issue. I was very clear at the dealer in mid 2009 that I wanted the 19" wheels and said I would have waited until 2010 if that's what it took. They insisted the wheels would never come out to Australia due to ADR regulations and to just buy the 2009 car. Six months later and bang....oh sorry about that you 2009 suckers! Fark that.
You know, we do have another option....Today Tonight or one of those "customer gets shafted by the big corporations" tv shows.
Sure, a few of us will upgrade to aftermarket wheels, but it's about the principle of the matter and the lack of honesty and customer service that pisses me off.
