I really want to wait for more detail. Is it going to be a 2012 model with production in 2011 like originally rumored? Or are the starting production in 2012? That would make a big difference in my mind...

I can't make a decision yet on waiting.

Pardon me but I never understood these kinds of posts. You say good bye yet you say you are going to visit from time to time!?!

Which one is it?

IMHO, 2 yrs is not a long time to wait and after 2012, the FT is only going to keep getting better and better with minor refinements and slight body changes.

also why u go from wanting a 4 seater to a 2 seater

well i have saved up $25,000 Canadian and was thinking of buying this car with one cheque but i have never had a new car, only used old cars and i am tired of driving them.

I was hoping a 2011 2Q production at the latest but it's not going to happen.

I will be putting a $25,000 down payment on the 2010 370z (financed)

waiting is the easy part.

Saving money is the hard part.

My thoughts exactly.
I definitely want to put a sizable down payment on this car.

for me i need a car this yr. 2 yrs is way too long to wait. plus im not the type of person that pays a premium to be the first one one the block with the new model, so ill have to wait another 4-6 months for the hype and price to come down.

i dont think ive ever been so excited about a car thats coming out so far away tho. its almost cruel of toyota to push this out so long. ugh

LMAO!! Must be kidding on the Toyota is cruel to push it out so long. How bout GT-R R35. Nissan show the R35 concept car in '01 at the TAS (iirc), but took em another 6 yrs (for JP and 7 yrs for US) to actually bring out the official GT-R.

^ I agree! 2 yrs is not a bad thing! They can take how ever long they want as long as they get it right.

Besides, the world is supposed to end on Dec 21, 2012 so we have to make sure we get one before then!
