The lockout ended on Wednesday evening. But where are our Zs? Any word from any of the West Coast dealers yet? I know that fruits and vegetables are getting priority in unloading, but come on now; Zs have wheels and can move onto trucks pretty easily...

Default No joy yet.

Did you see in the piece in the LA Times yesterday? The article mentioned that Nissan/Infiniti have something on the order of 15,000 vehicles backed up on boats or in the terminal. Arghhh!

Yours could be out there in that mess right now. Or you may be like me - waiting for the kid that will eventually weld your car together to drop out of high school. Or, based on the WLS shipping schedules, your car chould be here late this month or early November worst case.

Hang in there bro.

Those of us on the right side of the map would like to get our hands on those! Maybe the boats will just come on around!!!

Just kidding. Hope you get your cars soon, now.

Ports are saying it can take up to 2 months to get all the waiting ships loaded and unloaded before they return to normal schedule. Ya got to give them a little more then 2 days!

My dealer is expecting the cars to be coming into the dealerships next week. (unfortunately I've heard that one before)..

Regardless, the Z is coming soon!
