I wasn't suprised and he said it's the first series of 2010 and the 19" will be the second bla bla bla and you've been waiting for so long bla bla bla and your 370z should be in the show room today or tomorrow, I have been waiting and waiting but no calls. Maybe cos I have been waiting for such a long time my mind is F*@King with me.

I'm on the blink of cancelling my 370z, loose money, reorder and wait for another month or two. I'm confused! Maybe I should have not read all these comments.
Just becasue its made in 2010 doesn't mean its MY 2010.

You guys are right, I finally got it off my chest. The whole week I have been thinking and going through scenarios. So I finally decided to call a few dealers to check when it was coming and negotiated the price so it will cover most of my lost. I then called my dealer, he wasn't at work but he called me back. He was very nice as always. I told him, I want be satisfy with my purchase and at the moment I'm not cos the model I'm getting doesn't comes with 19' as I expected. He agree and said 2010 model should start from Jan - Dec not in the in March. He said to leave it with him. I'm a lot happier now and I'm actually not thinking about it and now I know the 19' is what I want. Will update when I get the call.

Thanks Guys!

Bad and Good News

Bad news, my dealer called me and said the car is already registered under my name and it's ready to be picked up now. No!!....... I was so devastated. I try to reason with him but it looks like there's nothing he can do. During our discussion he mentioned the colour "Titanium". I said "hold on I request for Carbon Silver!". (You see initially I wanted the titanium but because I have never seen it around Perth I was too hesitant to order one, instead I chose CS).

So there was a mix up from another guy that ordered 370z when my dealer was on holidays. Well well well my dealer now knows I have an argument, so it was you said I said blablabla and after a few more bla bla blas he called me back and offered to put the 19’ wheels from the Roadster onto my 370z. He told me to come take a look at the Titanium colour I will like it. Since I haven’t seen that colour I was curious, so I went down and had a look. Wow! It was better then I expected, so nice........ : ) I knew this could turn out bad if I argue my way out and I couldn’t resist this colour. So I told him I’ll take it if he includes street legal tinting, He agrees. Wuhoo! I’m happy I got the 19’ as I wanted, bonus tinting and it is a series one 2010 model, it looks like this is the last Titanium in AUS, I'm fine with that especially not many people in Perth has it.

Sometimes when you push too far it might not end well. I think I made the right choice.

I can’t wait to pick it up now. Thanks Guys I wouldn’t have got the 19’ or the tinting if I didn’t read your messages.

Firstly that's good to hear. Secondly, since we helped you out k3nkyo, you need to repay us, by sourcing some free 19's for us too. Come on mate, share the wealth....

I honestly think, 09 plated 370z are the best valve pending you can get one under 60k

True but unfortunately it doesn't benefit current 09 owners looking to trade up..

It's not worth trading up for a set of wheels and a build plate mate.

It all comes down to people who bought the 370z first and are $%$$ off we didn't get the 19's in the first place.

Even if I was a new buyer looking. I would target a 09 build 370z. (pending stock)
Dealerships won't move off RRP for the 2010 built until atleast the end of 2010/ start of 2011.

There will be a flood of 19's on the market at the end of the year. Coupe owners will go after light racing wheels and convertibles will go after bling.

I know what you mean... I just wanna get them 19"s now.

For the price I just picked up my new car, I've got the best of both worlds!

I wasn't talking about trading up, I'm thinking of selling and walking away. At the end of the day the Z isn't going to be very fast as is costing me a fair bit. The more I think about it, a newish daily driver and a hardcore GTR make a lot more sense.
