Been watching and reading for a while. Thought I would share what little info I've been able to PULL from the dealer.
Ordered 4/15, Blue enthuz, Lower Alabama, latest now....
No vin yet, I am first of 6, looks like late Sept or early Oct.
I'll keep my fingers crossed and hope for the best.


Great site. Thanks for all the good info.

 

I am a salesperson in the biotechnology industry, although the price range of the equipment I sell is very similiar to that of an automobile (~10,000-~100,000). I have maintained contact with my dealer by placing calls every three weeks or so since early june. From that point though the present they have fed me a steady diet of inaccuarte information.

My order number is T307226 my packet number was 4181. I placed the order in 3/1/02. As late as june 10th they told me the Z would likely arrive by late july ( This website lead me to believe the info was false, but I didn't contradict him). In mid july I was told to expect the car in early august (By that time info on this website about order and packet numbers was available, so I also knew this information to be false). I called yesterday to see if they were putting a little more effort into obtaining accurate information. This time, I was told to expect the the car aroud September 1st (which again is highly unlikely based on my order number and the shipping information that has been obtained and posted by others).

I have not argued becuase I do not want to get on the sh*t customer list (yes EVERY salesperson has a few customers that they will put out no effort for , because of past issues). I am very glad the forums have been here as a source of good information. I know what is going on, and that satisfies me for now. The unfortunate realty is that they will have the car, and I want it.

I am guessing there are several other people that have experienced their dealer showing similiar disinterest in taking the time to get accurate info. I would strongly suggest not losing your cool w/ the dealer before actaully getting your Z. It will not get the car here sooner, and you could wind getting screwed on price or service down the road. Be happy Jman has provided a place to let us keep up with all things Z.

Just my .02 anyway
