I dont' have an answer for you, but I think the situation at the docks really mucked everything up. Back in August, I was told by nissan that all pre-orders would be delivered by the end of November. Clearly, this didn't happen. Everyone is at the mercy of the dock workers... Sorry you dont' have your car yet.

Question is, when is that, feb, march? what a mess
It is my understanding dealers are currently accepting regular orders, even though some of the preorders may not have been filled. I don't know what you arranged with your dealer or not, but a lot of people are driving Zs they didn't preorder or they have located and purchased preorder cars when the buyer backed out.

You need to contact your dealer or NNA, via their website, to find out the latest info. If you don't get what you need, start going online to locate a Z, preorder or regular inventory.

According to my dealer, all pre-orders delivered after mid-November are most likely late due to some kind of human error. Even with the dock strikes, I got my car a month early, so I think it's just another excuse.

Hey Rob,

That photo from your site of the Zs in the big empty parking lot looks really cool. Where was that?
