Turboextreme Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 (edited) Well as the title says I ordered a silver 370Z Nismo on the 24th July so I thought I would call the dealership to see if they could clarify when I would receive the car as they said it would take around 16 weeks. They preceded to tell me that they had received an email from Nissan saying that they did not know when I would receive the car as they were waiting on the new car codes to come online So it appears that I am now getting the MY 2015 facelift model not the car with the BGW When I get the car your guess is as good as mine but I don't think it will be anytime this year. However they are going to honour the price I was going to pay for the old model unless it goes down of course. Am I happy about it or not? I am just not sure yet Edited October 27, 2014 by Turboextreme Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tatooandy67 Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Bet the waiting is killing you But it will all be worthwhile when she finally arrives, best colour too 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GIXXERUK Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 I really like the MY2015 Nismo. like the vents in the bumper, headlight black internals, seats I believe the Nismo is made on the same line as the 370z but the line has to be re-tooled for the Nismo, this causes delays and communication problems with deliveries Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kev Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Love em both. Not keen on the looks of the standard 370 but I really like the Nismos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZEUS Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 I'm not jealous at all Don't like the daytime running lights though. I don't like them on any car . 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sipar69 Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 (edited) What's not to like?! Looks cool to me. Here we go again The busy front end The wimpy spoiler The fact that it looks too much like a standard 370 The less attractive wheels The fact that you might end up in the same car as the Prince of Obnoxious Remarks (you'll find him four posts up ) You do get the gorgeous seats though.... Seriously though, I'm sure you'll love it. Hope you don't have to wait too much longer. Will it still be silver?

Ekona Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Actually, that reminds me, I need to chase my test drive in this. Although maybe the huge delay is why they've not got back to me yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GIXXERUK Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Lucky man, you don't get the ugly one, result! That's really poor from Nissan though, really poor. Agreed. The Skoda is a striking design for a hatch, especially in that colour. Plus, I'd rather have a car that was fast, rather than one that looked fast. He should of bought a fabia, slower 0-60 and lower top speed but infinitely faster 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 That comment was made in general though, not between a Zed and a Skoda. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep. Waiting for one of your excellent write ups. Shame they don't seem to be very keen on selling these cars to people! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turboextreme Posted October 10, 2014 Author Share Posted October 10, 2014 For some bizarre reason it won't let me do a quote on a reply. Anyway, yes the wait is killing me so you could imagine how annoyed I was when they told me they are cancelling my original order. I am at the moment still getting a silver car but when I went on the US Nissan site to build the 2015 Nismo it looks really nice in black with the red trim. I like the new cars front bumper and seats, don't like the wheels as much as its predecessor and I wanted the big wing as without it the new car looks to sedate. I think that I am going to be waiting a long time for this car but you never know I might be the first to get one in UK/Europe and get my photo taken to boot.

GMballistic Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Here we go again The busy front end ~ Looks more aggressive to me than it's predecessor and much better around the front grill. The wimpy spoiler ~ I prefer the duck bill type spoiler ~ not a drifter either so don't need a BGW. The fact that it looks too much like a standard 370 ~ Not sure if serious? The less attractive wheels ~ Agree with you there but they can be easily changed. The fact that you might end up in the same car as the Prince of Obnoxious Remarks (you'll find him four posts up ) ~ What's wrong with that? Technically Royalty then, ...no? Gave my views in red text above sipar69. Would love to own your car though or the 2015. Both are cool imo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WINKJ Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 I genuinely think it looks too similar to the standard 370... Even if i didn't own the mk1 I would think that. Let's not get into this debate again ... Is all personal preference 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
