Having to wait is almost unbearable!

It's only been a week since I ordered my Fully loaded yellow 370 and I can hardly stand it. I,ve run out of videos to watch(like 3 or 4 times)

Default Having to wait is almost unbearable!

It's only been a week since I ordered my Fully loaded yellow 370 and I can hardly stand it. I,ve run out of videos to watch(like 3 or 4 times) read all of the reviews( 3 or 4 times). been to this forum 20 times a day and generally think about this car night and day. You guys that have yours already are not making it any easier thank God for this forum cause the next 90-120 days are going to be ugly!. Anyway how are my fellow sufferer's doing with the wait, help me I need support!

So the current wait from factory is 90-120 days, ouch, but I am about to jump into that so I feel you.

I feel your pain. I want one bad, but have decided to wait a bit for a few reasons:

1) I figure by summer time there should be lots of inventory, hence better to wheel and deal on a car that's sitting on a dealer's lot.

2) Always hesitant buying a first model year car, so by summer I'll know if the car is relatibvely trouble free or not. If not, I may wait until the 2010 model year.

Nevertheless, the wait is killing me. My heart says go order one now, my head says no.

I feel your pain, man. I've tested them and picked out what I want, but I am not going to be ready to purchase for another couple of months. I could purchase in about 30 days if I wanted to, but I just took a new position and would like to wait until my probationary period and raise before I commit with a new car. You know, just to be safe.

I am in EXACTLY the same boat!! There's a part of me that wants to call the dealer, like, every day and see if there have been any updates. I've bought a smart key cover and new 370z JDM wallet already, shopping for a radar detector now... just staring longingly at the many Platinum Graphite Zs scattered on the web.

The weather is just starting to turn here in Portland... sun is shining a little more... it's making me wish my Z were here

C'MON APRIL!!!!

Glad I'm not the only one! Since ordering in Jan I've read nearly every Z-related thread here as well as other sites, looked at every youtube video of the 370z at least twice and google recent news on the Z every couple hours... I think it's turned into an unhealthy obsession!

Fortunately it's only 1 month before it comes... cannot wait. I feel for you bud!

I don't want to hear it, my 335i lease doesn't end until June 2010.

Oh well not a bad car to be "stuck" in.

I am 3 weeks in to my 90-120 days. But, its not that bad. I had to wait 5 months for my G because I ordered it before the official launch.

I'm with you, and I'm still a good ways from ordering. I've come to hate my current vehicle for the pure fact that it is not the Z.

picture this...


everyone on the forums (like 3 of them) are waiting for the release date of the G37, which was Aug.22/07. tons of ppl have ordered and awaiting for the cars to reach the dealerships and then the paperwork starts. unknowingly to the public, i bought my G before the release date and it so happen to be i picked up the car on Aug.22...i had to wait a week for the dealership and insurance company to get the paperwork done and waited for the plate also. It was a race to be the 1st owner....pressure was on....lol
but i did it......and now i have bragging rights


try to sleep with that much excitement on ur shoulders......lol

I'd brag about that too. So are you looking to trade it for the z? Getting a z on top of the g? other?

having a Z and G is just too radical, would blow my mind everyday
