Nissan: A Major Disappointment!

It is going to be extremely hard to do, but I am going to follow the break in procedure. I am pretty excited to pick up the car. I buffed up the garage tonight so it's new home is ready to go

I was at the mall close by last night and afterwards stopped by the Brasso lot. There were actually a few new ones in the lot with plastic on them - a silver base touring with M6, a blue touring/sport with auto, and a black touring/sport. There may have been more in the big lot (with gravel) but I didn't drive all around it. I didn't see Ace's red one, but assume it was inside getting prepped!

Oh I'm really pumped that may be my car, I'm going to Brasso today. Thanks for the info!

quick question guys. I also ordered a Nissan 370z from a dealership in edmonton in February!!! I can't tell if these guys are giving me the run around or not...they've told me that Nissan Japan has a unit for me but that they don't have a VIN# yet. They expect that the vehicle will arrive late May to mid June. Does this sound realistic or do you think I'm getting screwed...
Suggestions??

I ordered mine the first week of Feb., and picked it up a week ago last Friday from Sherwood. Can't say if you are getting the run around, as I was originally told it would be here around the end of April first part of May. Luck of the draw to some degree I expect. In fact, their expediting report suggested it was still at sea when it arrived on the lot, so maybe you'll be lucky and get it sooner.

I just did a update on my order and expect it to be on the next boat. The bad news is that until they have enough inventory, Nissan is holding completed and most likely pre-sold 370Z's in storage until enough vehicles are built to ship a full boat load. So it's very possible that your order is being held in storage.

But it is strange that you don't have a build confirmation or a VIN # by now. Who is the dealership?
