You can always change your mind in that respect until you take delivery; it is a negotiation between you and the dealership so call them and ask them for a printed quote for leasing the car.
Anyone in Georgia?

I just put the lease order for the blue one through... $473 a month for 36 months w/ 3K down. I think it makes more sense since you're getting 7.5K up front plus you're getting 5K from GA later or potentially up front (someone mentioned the dealers are negotiatin') Up front $ means the car is cheaper and I can still get most of my Fed money back with two mortgages, kids, etc. Am I right or am I right?
(It's the order for the second LEAF - the first one is still listed as a purchase - you can never have too many LEAFs.)

What they mean is the status of your Estimated Delivery at the bottom right of your account page. Mine says the month of November 2011 but I accepted the quote on the second day when the LEAF became available to order in Georgia.
My recently ordered lease in blue is still pending.
I just called my sales rep to ask about the 5,000 GA tax credit appling towards the lease like the 7,500 federal tax credit. He stated it had gone through, but he is going to check to make sure. Just thought I would keep everyone posted. Mine still has not changed from "pending"

Interesting, does that mean the state is going to allow the leasing company to claim the $5,000 just like with the federal tax credit? It sounds fantastic not having to wait until April to get those 5K back

My dealer (5 Star in Warner Robins) just received their dealer demo which was a 2011 Silver with QC charge port. As of Wednesday it had not gone through pre delivery prep and inspection. Can't wait till they let me do a test drive in it.

My wife and I took the demo for a 30 miles drive on Saturday on an spirited drive (roads with speed limit of 45 and 55 MPH) on some country roads. The car was given to us with barely 6 bars, something like 53% SOC and we returned it with 2 bars at something like 25% SOC. We were very pleased with the handling, the response, the quietness of the interior and considering that the only time we had in the leaf before was the electric drive tour, this was the first real drive in it.
We drove it in Drive mode shifting to ECO when we needed to slow down only and still got a very encouraging range estimate; the car was a test car and it now has over 11,000 miles in the odometer.
We also used the EV Profiler to correlate the real world data with the simulations done by the device and got back a report that is between 3% of the data from the vehicle, that is very encouraging as we have been driving around doing our normal daily routine and mapping it with the EVP as an experiment of how our range management will be once we take delivery.

I got my VIN issued over the weekend and was able to create an account on the owner's portal. My delivery is now scheduled for week of November 01, 2011.
My second order got moved up to November too... so I'll have to cancel that one. I was hoping for the next year but they're coming too fast, I guess.
EDIT: If anyone has heard anything confirmed on the $5K from GA, please let us know. Based on my conversation with TC Nissan, $5K is NOT included in the lease by any means.

I heard this from pre-sales Nissan on delivery in Duluth Ga:
Mr. Morris:
Jacksonville, FL usually serves as the port for vehicles destined for your LEAF dealer. Transit time from the port to the dealer is approximately 5 days once the vehicle is cleared to leave the marshalling yard.
Transit times and entry points can change but this is the most likely scenario at this time.
