I didn't do tints, as the first offer was $595 (I think, to exited about car to remember exactly) and didn't really try to bargain.



Same here, cant wait for more Aussies (QLD's for me) to join and even meet up one day.



Come to QLD mate for a visit, i'll be happy to teach you or let you have a blast or 2.



WOuld you be getting the Tint later as well, as thats the only way I can you getting around the LCT. Plus I suppose if you wanted to darker than legal (35% isn't it) you would have to after market. I would get the little window behind B-Piller a lot darker. Each to their own also.



Thanks. I have now added an Album for myself and reckon we all should when you get your cars. So we can all drool over them.

sounds like a great idea to me!!

maybe if we pestered nissan they could include it as an option?? we're paying more than twice the price of the US and getting less for it!

saw on the options page that came with the brochure that a reverse pack is offered, but strangely the dealer said the only options were paint colour and gearbox....

hmmmmmmmmmm......

will get on to them soon to see where my car is - they must have some idea surely you'd think!

There is an option for Reverse Park sensors for us in Australia. I didnt worry about them for obvious reasons LOL. I think i stll have the options brochure somewhere in my paperwork, might scan it and put that up.

As for paying twice as much i agree. Although we do get more than the US guys. For them to get our cars if i'm correct they have to tick basically EVERY option box. The only real differences is they get 19's we dont. They get PROPER iPod connection, we get AV jacks . We get rear windscreen wipers they dont.

Also as pointed out to me in my other thread that i posted in the new owners section in the main part of the forum, there are those little BUMPS under the headlights, which are washers.

From my dealer "They are headlight washers every 5 times you rinse your windscreen (when your headlights are ON) they will open and squirt soapy water on your headlights !"

On the Car invoice the price is written up as $600. To be honest whether that is the "TRUE" price is another thing. I can only really say that I am very happy with my overall price of the car.

I suppose someone who has had a Reverse Camera installed on another car whether the $600 would be a good price or not.

...and we also get electric "fold-in" mirrors and they're heated which apparently the US don't get. There's definitely pros and cons.

Yep, the 19" wheels and camera are on my list. I wonder if anyone in Vic has got a camera installed on their Z yet.
