  1. few small plans... 1. change the nissan badges for black Z. (currently in my shed) 2. visit maybe rt-performance to see if they can wrap/paint the doorhandles black. 3. POSSIBLE exhaust upgrade later in the year 4. POSSIBLE 10mm spacers but doubtful I will do this as I don't want to change the cars geometry at all as I love the set up. 5. POSSIBLE rear window and side rear tints. 6. 100% some form of cat sticker on the car. Where did you get your badges from? I need to change mine when it finally arrives. Did you get the handles wrapped/painted? I really don't understand why Nissan do them silver, looks cheap. Does anyone know how long the process is when ordering one from Japan? When we purchased it back in June, they said we should expect it before September. Still waiting :'( Well I ordered mine in July and they told me it would be 16 weeks which I worked out would be mid November and when I spoke to the dealer the other day they said they had a delivery date of the 10th November to the dealership. What colour did you order? As the waiting times for a black one was about 6 weeks and 10 weeks for a white one.
  2. Yes of course: http://www.newsroom.nissan-europe.com/uk/en-gb/Corporate/ListFactsAndFiguresCountry.aspx
  3. Just sat through almost an hour of reading through the PH thread and quite frankly got bored with it as I think the 350Z was mentioned far to much comparatively when the article was supposed to be about the 370Z. Also not everybody buys cars for economy I used to have a BMW M5 4.9l V8 and when using It for work averaged 6.9 mpg and the best I ever got was 26 mpg on the motorway. At the moment I own a 2013 BMW 120D M Sport Plus which looks like any other 1 Series M Sport hatch in the range, it is nice to drive and build quality is good, averages almost 50 mpg but its dull as dish water and boring, so to replace it I ordered a 370Z Nismo a few weeks ago .
  4. The 370Z and Roadster is the lowest selling Nissan vehicle in the UK according to their figures which explains why they are so rare. Figures are missing for 2011 but if my calculations are correct they probably only sold 200-300 370Z's that year.
  5. There are figures from 2005 but unfortunately 2011 is missing but I will put up the rest from 2009 as this was from when 370Z sales figures are shown: Model Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec YTD 2009 350 Z 114 15 27 13 3 2 0 0 0 0 0 1 175 370Z 0 0 0 0 0 37 40 16 93 42 38 56 322 GT-R 0 0 2 146 174 199 170 30 124 89 73 44 1,051 Model Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec YTD 2010 370Z 24 23 156 60 58 59 77 8 268 22 40 23 818 GT-R 54 14 163 34 35 27 14 4 57 23 19 5 449 Model Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec YTD 2012 370Z COUPE 6 0 45 5 6 17 6 1 31 4 6 10 137 370Z ROADSTER 7 0 8 0 1 4 0 0 1 0 0 0 21 GT-R 12 3 93 27 32 20 15 3 41 13 8 5 272
  6. Found this on the Nissan website which shows sale figures in the UK.

  7. I have just read that Nissan are going to sell the new 2015 version in the UK and Europe from September.
  8. Not got the car yet but already thinking about mods for her. Thought about the following: HFC's not sure on brand but thinking Berk technologies as I am keeping the Nismo exhaust, drop in filters maybe K&N and some HPS post MAF silicon tubes.
  9. No silver in stock, ordered mine 3 weeks ago and the dealer said got to wait around 16 weeks but if I had a black one I would get that at the end of August and a white one mid September, so looking at the end of October.
  10. When I was looking on a Nismo dealership forecourt today they had a brand new black Nismo for sale and that is number 251. So even though they may have built around 400 doesn't mean they are all sold as yet.
  11. How many owners of Nismo's are there on the forum?
  12. Nice Jono, I have ordered a silver one, looking forward to getting it.
  13. Looking good Wink, bet you are really excited now? Not long now
  14. I have 15 weeks to wait yet, this is going to be a long wait. How long did you have to wait for yours?
  15. I wanted something a bit different and not so common, I also saw one at the local Nissan dealership in black and also got it for a good price.
  16. Think you will find that refers to the base version of the 370 - 18" wheels etc Wonder how many imports on top of those totals - as far as the 370's go less than a handful I suspect. Only 35 though?! Seems very low for the base spec. Or it is just the fact that it was recorded incorrectly when first registered and on the V5, or no one actually purchased a base model, or the figures are incorrect.
  17. Out of interest I thought I would have a look actually how many 350Z and 370Z cars were registered in the UK considering that you do not see that many on the roads. I got the below information from howmanyleft.co.uk and is up to the end of the first quarter of 2014, this info also depends on how the cars name is registered on the log book. The figures for the 370Z for example include Auto & SA vehicles which I have added together as on the log book these were also named differently: 350 Z - 1474 350Z - 5693 350Z Gran Turismo 4 - 156 370Z Black Edition - 137 370Z GT - 1313 370Z GT Edition - 141 370Z GT Ultimate - 54 370Z Nismo - 64 370Z V6 - 35 The above figures also includes SORN vehicles. My apologies if this has been posted before.
  18. Quite possibly, they did also say that if I wanted a black one I could get it by the end of August and a white one by mid September.
  19. I have this week just ordered my 370Z Nismo in silver should be with me in around 16 weeks so the dealer tells me. Also seen a couple of low mileage examples going online recently for just over 30k in black or white though. Jono6395 when I first saw your car pics on here I wasn't sure if it was silver or not because of the shadow cast over the side of it, you definitely need some better pics. I also think that silver is probably the rarest colour and also checked online and found that there are only 64 370Z Nismo's registered in the UK. Also does anyone know that if they are planning on selling the 2015 version to the USA only does this mean that in the future this car will no longer be available in the UK? As surely they are not going to be building two different style models, I do like the new Recaro seats in the 2015 model though.
  20. Hello and welcome, have to agree that's a nice looking Z.
