***6mt Coupe Sightings****
K guys, no there haven't been any yet, but if the Admin would be so kind as to make this the offical sticky for 6MT sightings, then we can help each other know/track/estimate when its time to head out to our own dealers. As we all know Dec 28th marks the realease to dealers from the shipping ports as reported by a distribution specialists at NISSAN USA (who happens to be my close friend), so there is no B.S. on my part. And the more I hear from him, the more I will post for you guys so you can get an idea of when your car might be on your dealers lot. And whatever you guys hear or SEE, you can post in here and let us know. How's that sound?

As for me, I think that there is a strong chance that I will be getting my vehicle before the year end, approx JAN. 31st if all goes well. If Gee Im Fast statement is true, it would only take 1-2 days to get from LA to the SF area, then another day to get the car ready to drive off the lot. So that would put it around the 31st!!...I hope so

"Symalik...as much as I want you to have your car, I doubt GRUBBS will get them tomorrow. What makes them so special that they could get a special truck and ship them to their dealership before others, and or even breaking the DEC 28th date in which Gee Im Fast stated?"
The following was posted on Fresh Alloy by Danny Mayer, a general manager at Grubbs -
"We will have 2 truck loads of sold 6mt sedan and coupes due on Monday (the 27th) but we paid extra to have them direct shipped here. Most of our customers needed them for the tax write off this year."

Well then, that's a special case isn't it. As far as the release date of the 28th, that still holds, and comes from corporate words....not mine. But also don't forget, just because the 28th marks the realease date for starting to ship these bad boys out...you might not be able to touch any of the 6MT coupes UNTIL they are ALL accounted for and placed in inventory (documented, and checked for shipping damages) which translates to more than 1 to 2 days until you really get your car wunautica.
Happy Holidays to All.

"Powerdealers" like Grubbs always like to think they are the do-all die-all but in reality they're just a car dealership who's customers have to wait just like everyone else.
The facts are the facts, the cars get here when they get here. "But Grubbs told me they had a rocket truck that turns invisible and goes 200mph and will get me MY car TOMORROW!" These people are CAR SALESMEN, they tell you what they know you want to hear, which sadly is not always the truth, don't think otherwise.

on second note, it doesnt matter to me, since i cant get the car till another week, due to me being in illinois and the car being in texas, so im not even gonna argue about the dec 28th date, cuz no matter what, i get the car next year. but i am signing the papers tomorrow
also your right and i am wrong, you win
yes and a 6mt interior pic is posted on freshalloy
