Hey.... they are claiming the 2006Z has 306 HP! Wow, now maybe I should buy the 2006 instead of 2007!
Now they have a car on the website that isn't even a car that exists
.....but come to think of it ....it's a the Z which I would prefer over the 2007 Z...
2006 Z 2006 with 306 HP and a hood like 2006. Hey....I think I like this car better
Wow....I'll take it!!! Stop tweaking it right there NISSAN and send me that one!
But do you think Nissan is listening to us? NO!![rant](https://my350z.com/forum/images/smilies/rant.gif)

If you click on the Build You Z link, you are taken to a page all in Spanish. That usually means they have temporarily re-directed the English page (while updates occur) ![Smilie](https://my350z.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif)
...or their webmaster just has everything screwed up

Spec page is updated... at least the bit about the engine. Didn't get a chance to dig any deeper yet. We're getting closer.
http://www.nissanusa.com/z/specifications_coupe.html
Edit: Also, on the exterior features page, it mentions the new hood, but doesn't have a picture(red x), and on the interior features page, it mentions BlueTooth, but doesn't have a picture(red x). Also curiously missing is the picture for the 5AT on the driving dynamics page.
Really, the only pages that haven't been updated are price&options, the build tool, and the gallery.

So, the 2 things it doesn't appear to have that I was hoping for, are: true dual exhaust (although nissan claims their system saves weight and improves under-body aerodynamics), and push-button 'keyless' ignition.

In the catalog the colors look distinct from eachother. Le mans had charm to it that straight orange doesn't... i'll have to see one in person, I suppose they could've just changed the name? Doesn't seem likely.

I liked the sunset in person, but when i saw it in the catalog i thought
, Maybe you will will be the same, but remember no matter what color it is, It will be just a blurr to those you are passing

Dealer confirmed that my car has been built and shipped. I got a VIN number and an estimated arrival date of the second week of Feb.. The dealer has MSRP pricing, but no invoice pricing yet. I need invoice pricing for my VPP price. The wait continues.

PS. The reason they are taking so long is cus Nissan would like to reduce their Z inventory in the states to a certain percentage.
Peace!
