JimmyJam75 Posted July 26, 2006 Posted July 26, 2006 OK.. So I know I've been going on about this for ages in some of my previous posts .. but .. the wait will soon be over. My Z is due to the dealer mid August, so I've devided to post-pone collection until 1st Sept, that way I get the new plate. It's only another couple of weeks, and I'm certain I've dont the right thing.. (!?) it's just the wait is unbearable... Especially, as I've been buying stuff for the car already: a stubby aerial, BT adaptor and a Z key-ring (which came yesterday.. in it's own lovely little presentation box - *sniff*).. - SEE PIC *SIGH* Is anyone else picking up a new Z on the 1st? Does anyone have the ability to time travel? 5 weeks... how am I going to cope... HELP! Jim Quote
Chesterfield Posted July 26, 2006 Posted July 26, 2006 Its going to be one long wait for you... The good news is, it will be worth it. Quote
Darren_Z Posted July 26, 2006 Posted July 26, 2006 Is anyone else picking up a new Z on the 1st? I am, have been waiting since 24/5 you've bought a BT adapter? Did you order a MY06 z? Quote
Chesterfield Posted July 26, 2006 Posted July 26, 2006 Sounds like it. But there is still some debate over whether the 06 will actually come with the BT adaptor, or whether it will still be an extra, just that the car is "ready" for it. The debate goes on here: http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic ... highlight= Quote
Liam's Z Posted July 26, 2006 Posted July 26, 2006 So you took my advice Jim Your a braver man than me Quote

The debate goes on here: http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic ... highlight= I have been advised that (by several dealers) that the BT adapter somes standard with the MY06 Z's. Apparently some dealers are trying to charge customer's for this so id be careful Quote
mattuk77 Posted July 26, 2006 Posted July 26, 2006 Well count yourself lucky - I have to wait until 30/9 I've already had enough waiting and I only ordered it on Monday Quote
Kev946 Posted July 27, 2006 Posted July 27, 2006 Well done Jim for being patient. It will be worth it. Look after that key ring mind. They fall apart after a few months... Quote

SORTED ! i was warned about timewasters from some sites though.. Autotrader E&M etc.. Quote
