...ordering for the new Bronco opened early last year, and to my knowledge no one has received a new Bronco yet. Pandemic and chip issues are causing big troubles for everyone.

I've seen two the past three days..

That's cool, I didn't know people were getting their Broncos yet.

@JonnyG how much was your deposit?
Is your dealer just getting 4 initially or will there be others as part of their first allocation?

 

[youra6]

I'm just going to call every single nearby Nissan dealer tomorrow to see if they know anything about pre-orders.

Was it the full size Bronco or the Bronco Sport? The Bronco Sport (the crossover) has been out for a little bit but the big Bronco is coming this summer.

My dealer is slated (4) cars for first run and we can choose options and colors on May 23rd and put an official deposit down - I am PSYCHED

Colors came out and I am choosing Deep Blue Pearl

What other colors were you able to select?

Not to burst anyone's bubble but I reached out to a contact at Nissan the official word is this:

“As always, it is exciting to see so much enthusiasm surrounding the rebirth of our legendary Z. We will not comment on speculation, no matter how optimistic it may be. Watch for upcoming announcements on Nissan’s all-new, next-generation sports car, which will debut later this year.”


This is mostly boilerplate except the "no matter how optimistic" part. That seems to indicate to me that May 23rd is definitely NOT the date.

I wouldn't read too much into that stock response - it's the same one they have been using since the pre-production model and subsequent unconfirmed price/specs details leaked. This is from Motor Trend weeks ago:

"As always, it is exciting to see so much enthusiasm surrounding the rebirth of our legendary Z. We will not however comment on speculation, no matter how optimistic it may be," a Nissan spokesperson said.

Like I said still my hunch, April Fools, but prove me wrong hah! I know we’re all way overexcited on all this.

 

[kbl911]

I may try to get my dealer here in Naples to confirm but, last time I inquired (January), they appeared to be operating with vastly less information than basically anyone on this forum.

They were a little small, so probably the Sport.

Copy. Paste.

Copy. Paste.

Completely. Nissan is still being very cagey and this is the response that they've crafted for addressing virtually any information leaks or speculation.

Well back to clinging on hope then.

They haven't specifically decided - I am sure they will only require around $1G but if it's more it's ok - always refundable. Regarding the allocation they feel they will only be allocated (4) for the 2022's, I would think if sales are slow it can be increased, but for now that is all they are counting on.

Just called 3 dealers in the Denver area. None were taking pre-orders just yet.

I guess 4 is a good safe number.
Won't be surprised if some of the higher volume dealers that understand how much everyone loves the new Z plans for 15-20 of them. If anyone finds out, be sure to keep us posted.

I talked to a dealer in Arizona and he said they have taken 8 deposits. Crazy!

 

[ZJetBT]

Put my deposit in 2 weeks ago here in Melbourne, Australia.
Was told I'm 4th in line, and that they expect cars to arrive early 2022.
Manual.
Orange.

 

[takemorepills]

Does putting a deposit down make it so the dealer agrees to not charge ADM?
