No but you can import one from Japan once they get on the used market on Nissan Used Approved or Indie. Id wait at least a year and half if I had the money and get it in Winter. Its due to Euro 7 Emissions in 2025. Whereas Toyota are selling their 86 for 2 years till then. No real business case for EU Hold onto your Nismo until the prices come down Id say. Another couple of years. Maybe 2-3. Edited February 6, 2022 by GranTurismoEra 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GranTurismoEra Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Boulder Grey they're calling it. I wonder how it would look with that alternative front bumper and bodykit I think they have quite a few colours already to choose from.

hmale4yu Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 I'm likgin that Boulder grey with the blue interior. The grey is light enough to contrast with the gloss black detailing. I think the Blue might be a bit dark but its really difficult to tell without seeing it in real life esp in the British overcast weather.

hmale4yu Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 Just saw a Nissan crossover thing recently in what I believe is the Boulder Gray colour and tbh I think in British weather it looks a bit flat/dull. Could also perhaps have something to do with the model I saw not really being a looker. Could have been a Quashqai? I've seen a photo of a blue 350z along side the new blue Z and tbh the new car is only a shade or two lighter. You have to remember all these shots have showroom spot lights and/or outside in the American sun so it really flatters and makes the colours pop more. I have a feeling the boulder gray and blue won't pop as much in British overcase conditions Given the yellow has a fair amount of pearl in it I think it makes it alot more appealing then Vegas yellow on the Audi S1. Would like to see the car with a front registration plate on it as it would break up the gaping grille somewhat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GranTurismoEra Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 As far as I know youre unlikely to see them here in the first 12-24 months as the retail price in Japan is around £10,000 higher than US. Then and 30% fees as mentioned earlier. Nissan USA claim of $40,000 is not guaranteed as markups are common over there. However the Japanese are more critical of the car than the Americans which will affect sales and depreciation. I think after 2-3 years the prices will be much like the Supra here used in the mid 30s. Since Supra is getting a manual late 2022 that will increase competition for Nissan. We do get sun in England contrary to popular belief. You wouldn't believe we get a lot of sunshine for the amount of days it rains. I would say fully sunny days are less than a partial sunny day. I rather get a Supra next than deal with the trouble of tacking on £10,000+ to the price for shipping and customs. Its not worth it for what youre getting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GranTurismoEra Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 Unfortunately Curb weight has gone to 1581kg for the Manual and 1610kg for the auto. That carbon fibre manufacturing theyve been bragging about wasnt implemented then 🙃. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hmale4yu Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 Stateside ppl are getting impatient with this now. The longer they leave it the more of a performance gap with direct rivals and other cars that perform same/better at sim pricepoint. Don't think it's special enough to import one over sadly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GranTurismoEra Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 Ill always Love Z but common sense must prevail. This car is 5 years late. They couldn't get board approval while Ghosn was there. Its only due to fan fare they did another car. Z34.2. Yeah a few dealers and specialists could import it and resell it on finance. The hefty price tag put it in the range of superior cars. Its time for those fans im US who begged for this car to put up or shut up. They must show it in sales and mark ups are part and parcel of American market. The rear of the car with that wing....not sure about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like every manufacturer these days they are capping the number of cars that can be built due to chip and parts shortages, I don't think they will be able to make the numbers they need. As for mark ups, lots of manufactures are stating here that dealers must sell at list price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Different planets but would be interested to hear how both are to drive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
