No more MB + persimmon??

scottIN · 08-29-2011, 07:30 PM

So I'm trying to order a 2012. My sales guy says 'You can't get the Monterrey Blue and Persimmon combo.' Huh? Yeah, you can build it on the website and I've heard of people getting it. Just went in and talked to him again and he said the same thing. So I go to the Nissan site, and nope - can't do it!

What's up with that??

Interesting... I wonder why they changed it. It seems like you can only get persimmon interior with pearl white or magnetic black now on their website so it's not just affecting monterey blue.

Does this make the MB and persimmon a tad more valuable?

Feel bad for ya bro, it was the only combo for me

That bites. I bought mine used with with white interior, it's mb, and had wanted to swap with someone. Now it's gonna be difficult to talk someone into it lol

Yeah. It really sucks. I may end up going red / grey now. My last coupe was blue / grey so I want something different.

I'm guessing they've started updating the website for the 2012 offfereings. I didn't catch anything else different / deleted / added yet, but maybe they just slowly make the changes.

Love the persimmon too, sorry you can't get it.

Does anyone know what it would cost to have it done by an upholstery shop?

Might want to check with shadoquad. I am pretty sure he had his interior redone professionally.

Very Interesting…. This is a great color combo. I get positive compliments on mine all the time.
Oh well, that stinks for new buyers. But not for me!!! LOL.
Thanks Nissan for making a exclusive car even more exclusive!
