Yes, yes it is. I'm not complaining in the least, but was hoping for a bit of a change as detailed throughout the thread.

If Nissan cannot produce the car I want by the end of the year I will just slap some PS2-ZP's and Avery Denison film on the 'vette and call it good. Will quiet down the ride a lot and the new wrap is a ton better than the Ventureshield currently on it in my opinion.

Since I'm not going to go thru 20 pages?

I/C have you possibly looked into a 2011?

You'll probably save some money also

No, I would not consider a 2011. I want the new oil cooler, and whatever "silent" changes Nissan has made to the car. I firmly believe that manufacturers make many changes year-to-year that we know nothing about, in specific, but that nonetheless enhance the vehicle in a tangible manner.

That's odd that you can't order the car configured like that because it's such a common configuration for the 09-11s. Must be a supply shortage somewhere.

I was told by my dealership it is NAV supply shortage, hence why the Altimas (or was it Maxima?) are not getting NAV right now, either.

Sorry, tired, should take it more in stride, maybe things will get better in a few months.
NAV's cannot even be bought by the dealership as stand-alone items currently from what I understand.

Like their governments, society increasingly wants their transmissions to do everything for them.

Well at least when someone wants their transmission to do things for them they don't try to get ME to pay for it.

I'm sure we subsidize part of it somehow.

I just want the OPTION of having my transmission do everything for me. I like my flappy paddles

the Z is too much fun for AT IMHO....

I think if you give it like 2-3 months you should be able to find them easily. Unless you have some reason to get it all done before the end of the year I think it would be worth the wait. Why ruin you're whole plan just because you can't wait another month or two? I think you just need to get some rest and think about it calmly later.

Bank is giving a great rate until the end of the year, and....solid advice.

Valid reason. I would still look into the option even at the beginning of next year. Rate might not be all that different and still could be enough to save you a lot of money over keeping the Z06.
