Some nice pics from www.zcca.org, especially the exterior door handle mechanism:

Thanks for the link. There were some nice close-ups of details I hadn't seen before. I liked the "Z33" model number!

 

Notice the door panels and other interior don't include that carbon fiber look? hmmm...

 

What the HECK????

Check out pix #8 of the interior. The driver side doesn't have the alum door handle and the pass doesn't. Look ficken odd?

 

I thought the same thing then again...

Why the heck would you be grabbing onto it if you are holding to the steering wheel? Just another thing to get into your way. Don't think about balance - think about form and functionality. I think this was the theme when they built the interior for the Z.

 

That lady is too old to be driving a Z. Looks like she cant see whats up ahead. She is going to run over someone.

 

Hahahaa... that's Mr. K's admin. I met her at the Tokyo Motor show... she's been with him forever (and a day).

 

Mr. k's admin is Johnnie Gable...she is a very nice woman...she is a member of Group Z and is the source that has been meeting with the people in california over the past 6 months at fuddruckers.
She made me a Group Z member so i could participate in a event in TX....too bad I cant participate more since im in TX and they are in CA.

Her current job at NNA is the liason to all the Z clubs. Sweet Job

I have gottten some good info from her in the past and she is one of my sources over the past 6 months.

There has been alot of nice people I have talked to and met at Nissan when I got in the right circle.

 

THAT WOMAN'S DRIVING MY CAR! Really,, the color and the accessories are the same as i ordered.. I live outside of Atlanta.. but ordered by Z from dealer in Shreveport..where my parents live.. my father has had 2 previous versions of Z's.. Keeping the tradition going..

 

Any one notice the close up of the wheels? Are they dirty or is the paint peeling off or tarnishng?? (see the left side of the rim). Hate to think the wheels are that low quality!

My Maxima has similar discolouring and I have not been able to wash or scrub it out. Doesn't look good at all.

 

So I keep asking this, but I don't think there has been a firm answer. From these pictures, it looks like there is a large(r) compartment behind BOTH seats. You can see it very clearly on the passenger side (the one with the armorall and rags in it), and it looks like you can see the edge of a similar compartment behind the driver seat. For those of you who saw this car, was there an identical compartment behind the driver seat? Thanks.

 

That's what I was thinking from the looks of that Pic VQ...I was just hoping someone could confirm. That sure would be a terrible waste of space if there isn't one. It sure would be a lot more convenient for me since I drive by myself most of the time.

 

There was no latch. I was wanting two bins as well, since I did not get the bose. Maybe it is pre-production.

 

If there's no latch on the driver's side, we can all go J-Spec and bulk order some from Japan. It might be tricky getting the lock pins set, but it would be worth the effort if Nissan doesn't do it for us.
