Congrats on yours. When did you order? Hope it gets delivered soon!
I ordered mine about two weeks ago. It's supposed to be here in about two more weeks. It turns out there was one in the manufacturing pipeline that matched my order perfectly, so my salesman told me that he would be able to have it redirected for delivery to their dealership. That probably saved me about 4 - 6 weeks of additional waiting!

Like you, I didn't want many options. Just navigation and rear spoiler on a GS/Graphite 6MT coupe.

Picked mine up last week

Nice ride. I picked up my new G37 last week - silver / black.
I see yours has a pinstripe - dealer installed or did you add it?

I did not add it. I'm told that the factory doesn't do those either, so it must have been the dealership. I'm still on the fence on whether I want to remove it or not. I'm usually against anything "stickery" including pinstripes.

The pinstripe is painted on or is it tape?

BTW, I hate when dealers do that stupid ****. They love to add crap on to cars in their inventory, just because of the profit margin they earn. I would have told them that I wouldn't buy the car unless they removed the pinstripe first, but that's just me....I hate pinstripes on any car.

I love that Cobra.

As for the pinstripe, it's probably tape; my vote is to take it off.

It's tape. I'm dropping her off at the dealer on Thursday to touch up a very minor chip on rear bumper's left side. I think I'll have them remove it then.

On the nick, I was told (and agree) that the only way totally fix the nick would be to respray the whole bumper. He advised that he wouldn't recommend it due to factory paint mostly always being superior to being resprayed. Service manager seems to think they can make it look nearly-perfect though. It's about the size of a pea, so where my agreement came in is that I would rather have the factory job over a respray. Any thoughts? I would post a pic, but it's so unnoticeable, I'm not sure it would show on camera. I think I may just be ok with it if they touch up and smooth it out.

Already set up a loaner for the day, so that was nice. Ford did "loaners" for SVT vehicles, but it involved being sent to Enterprise and renting a car that they would reimburse. So, I'm already impressed with the Infiniti "experience" (not to sound like brainwashed consumer, though ).
