Magic Bus, good color to get for your '13 along with the packages. The wait is definitely worth the wait.

Thanks for the kind words guys!

Happened to be next door to a different Nissan dealer this past Tues, so I stopped in to look at a GTR they had in the showroom there. Their commercial & fleet sales manager comes up to me and we start chatting.

Not your typical car salesperson, very personable and more interested in hearing what I have to say than him listening to himself speak. Come to find out, we have a couple of mutual friends. Anyway, I inform him that I already have a 370Z on order from another dealership and he asks for the specifics, model, color, options, etc.

He then asks if he can beat their price would I have an objection buying the Z from his dealership. I reply, other than them holding my $2k as a security deposit, I wouldn't have an objection. He then asks for their price. I give him the details.

We go into his office, he gets on his computer, then informs me, he doesn't show the 2013 pricing yet, but based on the 2012 price he should be able to beat my other quote by about $200 taking into account a price increase for the 2013. So he says, this is what I'll do. I'm going to order your 2013Z, you don't have to put anything down and am under no obligation. Because if you don't buy this Z I know someone else will buy this particular set up very quickly.

He calls me yesterday and says the car has been ordered. Will call me when he receives shipping update.

Fantastic, I have 2 cars on order and should be able to get a better price now. Only 1 bummer......my car won't be one of a kind! LOL

Today, I received a call from the 2nd Nissan dealer (which I did not leave a security deposit) for the 2013Z. He informed me that Nissan confirmed that the car will be shipped from Japan toward the end of July.

The ship goes to California first, to get cleared through customs and then comes to Honolulu. So I should be able to receive my Z by mid August!

Thanks for the positive words guys. My wife saw the picture of the Magna Red and she is the one who said "why not get that color, that looks really nice". O.o, if I get that color, she may insist on driving it more than me! LOL

Here's an update, according to my salesperson, the order for my 2013 went in so hopefully in 3 months I'll join all of you on the road. The wait is tough, especially reading about others getting their new Z's and enjoying it. So I decided to spend Memorial day honoring our fallen soldiers and their families who gave the ultimate sacrifice by visiting our local National Cemetary. Then took a wonderful mountain drive, plus the city in the GTI. I know it's not a 370Z but hope you enjoy the pics of my hometown.

Do they make that GTI in any other colour? Or does everyone just buy that colour? lol I think I've seen like 60 of those on the road since they came out.. and they've never not been black with red trim. That's a really good combination though.. just wondering hehe

Nice GTI. My brother in law has one and I love it, so fun to drive. Hey take a look at this color for the new 2013 Z. It just became available with the Magma red for 2013, called midnight blue.

ShinyBlueZ, the GTI only comes in 4 colors. Black, white, red and grey. Gotta agree with you, even here black seems to be number 1. However today on the mountain drive a white GTI was following me.

Actually wanted the grey for the color but the 2 dealers we have here didn't have any and was not expecting any soon. Luckily one of them was eager to offer me a great deal on the black so I went for it. It's all good, I can still get the grey for the 370z!

LakeShow, great color! Saw it on a GTR about 3 weeks back (I'm assuming it's the same color?). I have a feeling, the dealers here may get some other Z's in before my order comes in. So I'll keep an open mind and may change colors.
