Chev just reprogram a little popup disclaimer on the screen that says "track use only". A lot of cars with active-valve exhausts use this workaround. Still pretty funny for all those corvette customers!

Me too. On the plus side I think I’ve collected all the Hot Wheels models now lol. I’m also gradually collecting some Bowden’s Own products to give the car a good detail once it turns up, apparently mine was built in Feb.

Well, they started shipping September 22
First Nissan Z deliveries leave Japan destined for Australia - PerformanceDrive
apparently, they managed to ship 84 units by December 22. Mostly Protos and demo's
Nissan Z: 1200 orders to be delivered, wait times push 12 months | CarExpert
At that stage they hoped to ship 1200 by December 23
right now, many of those cars are sitting in Japan and have been for up to 6 months, not shipping
I'd guess 120 max

I've given up on updates from Nissan, my wife does Tarrot Cards, she says a September delivery for me.
I normally don't believe in that sort of stuff but at this stage it more than I can get out of Nissan

I’d say it’s very close…that initial drop was ALL Protos, and demos.
Very few been delivered since, and the ones that have been are all nearly silver a black.

120 is way low.
al Demos are now delivered.
so even banking only half of dealerships got one that’s 90
there are 37 used ones for sales right now on car sales.
so that’s already 127.
now judging from the 4 people I know with deliveries. Only 1 has flipped (early car and 1-2 shift was crap) so the numbers are much higher than that.
so be a fair chunk of protos plus demos plus now customer cars.
i would guesstimate mid to high 200’s at min.
that is a conservative guess.

Nope…disagree …I think 120s a fair estimate.
80 dealers but as you said only around half got a demo…so 40
Rumoured to be 180 Protos total coming but less than half are here so around 80…total 120
Then maybe 30 coloured tops …all silver or black
So maybe 150 tops.
In WA like @Hammo25 said, the only ones I’ve seen are demos (and his) and I do a LOT of driving from the city to the country as I’m a merchandiser….and on the road for around 6 hours a day.
For sure they is maybe a couple that I just haven’t crossed paths with, but my guess is no more than a couple.
Part of this reasoning is the dealer Hammo got his from is one of the top rated turn overs in WA…his is the only one they have had and delivered. I’m aware of one other dealer delivering one
I know another large dealer is yet to have a customer order in…because if that they have sold their demo, but can’t deliver till the 9month time period is up, which to be fair must not be far off now
Plus people on this forum have had their money down since early 2021 , no car yet. I was told by Nissan head office that I was in the very early orders and too 100, so you would have to think if that was the case and that there was more than 200 in the country that myself and people like me would be driving a Z by now, especially as we have ordered different specs and colours
My opinion for what it’s worth
