Angry Not a happy bunny

well after checking this morning on the group of dealerships which my car was ordered through I am surprised to find that there are about 4 other new cars just sitting there and no call from the dealer....

tried calling them, no answer... sent them an email...

waiting for response....

ok - not exact colour/spec I ordered but was promised a call if other colours/specs were available... and nothing.

not a happy bunny...

thinking of having a word with Nissan themselves....

not happy with the service to date...

I've noticed not many dealers reply to emails... atleast that's been my experience anyway. It's like they don't know how to use email.

The cars are basically being built per order.. pitty they can't stick the 19s on for those who want them.

prob still prefer the carbon silver though - not too fussed on either transm, thought paddles were a nice touch...

arghhhhhhhhhhh more confused than ever now! lol...

i know what you mean mate - it screws up the whole manufacturing process for them....

I for one would pay extra for them though if we had a choice!

Hey there irishboy, this is so not good to hear. The few of us in SE QLD, have had pretty good dealings so far with our dealerships, so it's not good to hear this has happened to you.

Dont forget when you get the survey mailed out to you to fill it out. From my understanding , these mean quite a bit to each dealer whether they are good or bad.

Thats good to hear they are now doing something. Even if it's after you had to push them to do something. Personally the colour side of things dont worry me too much, I was happy with either Yellow/Black or White.

But after driving both the Manual and Auto, it had to be a manual. Just felt so much better to drive.

Again great news that you now dont have to wait till Sept (think that was your latest update). Either way you go, I'm sure you are going to love the car.

Hey AK, I thought it was Yellow that was faster. They even made it a special Edition in Europe LOL.

Which dealership did you use irishboy? I've got two on order at Duncan Nissan in Victoria Park which are expected around the end of August.
