What web site is everyone referring to? Everytime I go to nissanusa.com I get the 06 Z. It says 2007 in the title, but everywhere else on the page is says 06.

So then what are you getting that you would care about? VDC?

... Seriously, dude? The price difference between the Enthusiast and the Touring in 06 was around 3k. Now, being that we have no idea what the pricing is on the 07's yet... since Nissan is currently sucking hardcore in that department, we'll just go with the 3k from last year. So ask yourself this: if you don't care about the power/heated/leather seats or the Bose 7 speaker mp3 playing-audio... would you want to pay $3,000 for VDC (Manual, Coupe only) and Bluetooth (Coupe only)? It doesn't come with NAV, that's even more extra. Do I think it's worth it? HELL, NO. But you might, homie. I've seen people do crazier things. Since you've apparently been looking at 06's as well, know that you'd be spending 3k on VDC only, since there's no Bluetooth in 06's.

Same here

I've got my eye on a new '06 Silverstone Touring that I test drove the other day. My dealership is now saying it'll be mid-March before they start seeing any 07's. WTF NISSAN??

06??? I have to post this!!!
I just stopped by my local dealer to see how many they had left and found a nice silver stone convertible with a sticker price around 34k or something like that. To bad the re re who drove it last didn't close the top all the way, so there is about an inch between the top and the windshield. O and did I forget that it's been raining for at least the past 8 hours, and I mean it's a steady hard rain. I called my buddy who works for the city PD and told him, and can you believe he said that's not the first time they have done that.

Cheers

Kevin

Tak a look at King Windward Nissan's inventory right now, 07's are coming extremely soon to the rest of the USA. March? Yeah, right... they prolly say that to everybody who test drives 06's. Bottom line, they are trying to sell you something... and will lie, cheat and steal to do it.

I took a drive in my '03 today, and decided that I can wait till I can at least drive an 07 before I make a decision.

Nissan has sure dropped the ball on the 07. I would not be surprised if it just skipped 07. There are not many 06s still around. I believe there may be 1 in my area.

They are not waiting because they are trying to sell 06s. There were far more 05s left when the 06 came out.
Toyota is going to eat Nissan for lunch in the sports car world when they release the Supra! Nissan has become terribly slack in every area!

There is n =o way that they will skip the Z 07........There are already brochures on it, specs too, and some people have even already pre order the 07........Supra is not that special ...

You're right. I'm probably going over to the dark side. When I test drove the '06 GT back in June, it just seemed soft compared to my '03 touring and the torgue didn't impress me. Yes, the torgue is supposedly on the high end but I really like to feel it at the start. I missed feeling the road, even at the expense of a rougher ride. But, I liked the stance of so much, I ordered a MB. Well, '07 info started trickling in a few days before they called to let me know that it was in. Knew that they wouldn't be at dealerships before January. I told them, even though I've waited a couple of months for it, I had to wait to see and drive the '07 GT. No problem of course.
Well, I agree with everyone that Nissan has screwed up with this '07 "no show" business. Especially, not giving any excuses. And some people say you can't really tell any difference with the hood. Really!
At any rate, hope good comes from it all.
