WOWZERS!!!
Gotta thank you all for posting that the vehicle was there in the NNA parking lot. Went by after lunch and got to check it out. I just hope they didn't mine the drool spots that I dropped on the car!! BTW, I heard it call my name over and over again. Was it my imagination or did this happen to anyone else while seeing her for the 1st time.

I checked this forum about noon at work and saw this thread and that someome said they saw the car around 10 AM. I figured what the heck, printed directions from the internet, jumped in my car and took off for the 50 minute drive to Herndon. I got there about 1:15 PM and drove all over the lot, but no Z. Bummer. I thought maybe it was gone for lunch so I went and grabbed something to eat and drove past on my way back. I was already going to be gone 2.5 hours from work so I didn't have much time. When I got back there the Z was back and parked in the lot
I got out and looked at it for a while. I was the only person there. Then a Nissan guy came out and asked my if I liked it (dumb question) and talked with me for a while. He was going to let me in it but then didn't have the keys. He said it was a press car and The Washington Post was going to be picking it up.
I have a few comments about the car after seeing it in person:
- The blue does look nice
- The car is much wider than I thought
- The car looks very heavy
- The are more edges on the car, like the front fenders, than was apparent from the pictures.
- There is virtually no cargos space. It looks much worse than my wosrt fears.

Not sure if you're implying that I was rubbing all over it or not. Of course, I was only being sarcastic about the drool.
However, the one part I actually did feel was the chrome door handle to see exactly if it was going to a bear to open during the summer time in extreme heat. Surprisingly, it wasn't and the temperature was in the mid 80s, BUT the feel could get warmer/hotter during higher temps.

Hell I touched it. The guy flipped me the keys and I started it, popped the hood and made her purr like the cat that she is. I played with the stereo , opened every compartment and tried all the bells and whistles. I ordered mine May 13th and figure I will not see it until the first of October. This sample helps the longing.There is no cargo space( maybe enough for two overnight bags), but this is a beautiful ride.
