I finally made up my mind on the car and set out to get either:

1) '06 ZR Enthusiast Silverstone, 6MT, side air bags (do custom leather later)

or

2) '06 ZR Touring Silverstone/Burnt Orange, 6MT

I figured it would be 6 weeks MAX wait time right? But no! Neither are available in the next 2 months of allocation in the entire western region and now I had to place a special order for one which will take 12-16 weeks. Blargh!

Soooo excited though. Will be joining the family soon, and I've already got the mod list going haha.

I was just at the philly car show and i seen one there it seems like the doors are lighter than my 2005 roadster. Is that true?

 

Wow, that's going to be a hard long wait. I'm excited for you though. The silverstone with the burnt orange ventilated seats looks sweet. Welcome.

 

hey beggobeh,
I think there is one at:

Rob Green Auto Group

1070 Blue Lakes Boulevard
Twin Falls, ID 83301
Sales & Service at: 1-866-251-3458

Is that to far out of your way?? PM me with your email address and I'll email you the link

 

come to CA, plenty to pick out.

 

Guys,
Thanks for all the help. I'm located in southern california and two separate dealers already ran the search and there's nothing here or coming within the next 2 months. I dunno about trucking one in from the east coast cuz I doubt they will give me a good price. I placed the order today via Performance Nissan (good people!) for a price of $300 under invoice.

 

Remember ZR=exclusivity. Production is only 5-6000 annually worldwide.

 

Damn 12-16 weeks , your a patient guy , but on the bright side it will be the middle of summer and the top will never go back up until December

 

I'm in SW Fla and when I started looking I did an internet search on most of the dealers within 100 miles. All of them only had automatics in the roadsters except my local dealership. Luckily the had the color and package I wanted and gave me a pretty good deal. Try the net, most dealerships list what they have in stock.

 

I just picked mines up yesterday! 06' ZR Silver Stone, Burnt Orange Leather, 6MT and Nav. I love it!!! I got it at Petaluma, Ca. I had to search through 25 dealerships here in Northern Cali to find this bad boy!!

 

Beautiful car. Congrats and welcome to the board

 

Thanks!! I just found this site yesterday browsing around. lol.

 

awesome car... welcome to the forum

 

nice!! that's exactly what i was looking for but I didn't want to pay for the nav. i can't stand not having it touchscreen so i'd rather do something aftermarket.... ahhh well only 10 more weeks for me

 

I didn't wait a day. Of course, when I walked into the dealership I didn't know I wanted a roadster. I was looking for a coupe, but when I saw that magnetic black roadster with burnt orange seats I couldn't resist. I drove it home that afternoon.

I guess I missed the "anticipation is half the fun" aspect of buying a car.

I couln't be more pleased.

weclome to a car more exclusive than the porsche.

 

roadsters come in the enthusiast line?

 

CongratZ!!

 

Yeah its their "base" model. You can get either enthusiast, touring, or grand touring. I thought the touring wasn't right for me as you pay $2500 more to get leather/heated seats and the godforsaken bose system. I'm tossing the radio the first chance I get so I figured it wasn't worth it for me.

 

Come to East Tennessee...I know where about 10 are within 100 miles of me.
