Please Post Here When You Get Your 2012
I'm just trying to see when others start getting their 2012 Z's. Mine is scheduled to arrive November 18, and is about the 500th car built so far.
Please post your car's build date, delivery date, and your aprox VIN# so we can figure out how fast they are building them, and how long it's taking to get them delivered. Thanks ---- Bonzo Here's my story today from other threads...... Quote:

I know they build other models besides 370Z in the assembly plant, so the 370Z build rate may be different now, but it gives a rough idea. It would be interesting to know how fast they are building them now.

What I've learned in the last 6 months is that in terms of mass production comparisons, this is a very low volume car. 370's have sold WAY less than 350's within the same 2-1/2 - 3 year first release time period. I'm chalking that up to the economy and the Camaro being back, but I'm just guessing. But even if you use 2009's sale of 13117 cars, and divide it by say 48 weeks, that's only about 275 cars a week. Use 2010's numbers and that drops all the way to about 210 cars a week. 2011 is even slower. Yeah, hopefully I'll be able to figure it out soon and report back.

Per this thread 2011 370z sales August was about 130 cars a week. Although since allocations and orders weren't happening as usual, one has to wonder how many of these cars were older orders or "remakes" due to the tsunami.
370 Z Month 2009 2010 2011 January 1280 673 567 February 1452 699 571 March 1632 1095 974 April 1561 952 942 May 1278 1217 847 June 924 892 644 July 890 976 550 August 837 823 517 September 802 787 October 824 745 November 713 630 December 924 726 Total 13117 10215 5612 Grand Total 28944

If you use the 130 per week figure, with my car built on 8/25 and a VIN# around 500, that would mean 2012 production started at the begining of September (or even late August). Hard to know for sure until we get exact build dates and aprox VIN#'s.

is Nissan back to full swing? if not you have to consider that they are running rotation with other car manufacturers due to limited supply of materials and electricity. you cant just go by the standard R@R.

That's exactly what I'm trying to figure out really. Well, and more selfishly, if my car will be early or on time or late. With actual build dates, delivery dates, and VIN#s, we should be able to figure it out.

Built 8/11???? You sure you don't mean 9/11? Not to give a bad 9/11 vibe here, but if your car was built 8/11, and mine around number 500 was built on 9/25, then certainly they had a shut down of sorts? I mean, it would seem like either your build date is wrong, or you don't have a 2012. But your 56 VIN# says 2012. Has to be wrong build date or a shut down. Or did you simply typo? Can you give us better feel for your VIN#? Like 1-50, 51-100 etc? If you're not comfortable with that it's cool, I understand. I'm just looking for basics. Mine is 500-550. By the way, I LOVE the Black Cherry. I'm just too much of a lazy frack to keep it clean. I had a 1997 Tahoe that was Dark Cherry Metallic and thought it was beautiful, just a bitch to keep clean. More pics of you car would be great!!!
