Yeah sucks for us. This is going to be harder than beating the first Ninja Turtles game on NES.
Those fucking underwater bombs...

I still have the same two unanswered questions that I've had for months... price and weight.

I think some one had posted weights that showed up in the Canadian orders but I’m guessing 35ish and 36ish

The video just went private.
Of course it did. Explicitly teasing SG for breaking the embargo is deeply stupid, good luck getting any more substantial info from them now lol. The guy went out of his way to share and in exchange gets told to expect a call from Dan Passe...genius.

Lighten up, it was obvious he'd already said everything he was going to say. One joking response is hardly going to change his posting behaviour. The SG crew are smart guys who have dealt with dozens of NDAs over the years - does anyone honestly think they don't know exactly what they can and cannot say lol? If they were suddenly concerned based on my poking they would have deleted their post, which they haven't done.

I suspect the video deletion has more to do with the fact that it may have been meant to be a Patreon exclusive for his financial supporters, and never meant for public distribution.

Thank you for your input. Love your vids, so well done, funny, and informative. But damn you guys drove this in Feb? Must have been a non-final preproduction model. My main questions would be;

Is this more of a GT car that can be engaging and enjoyable enough to track it on occasion? Or more of a Track car that isn't GT level but it's not going to shake out the kidney stones? Since it doesn't have adaptive dampeners.

How well does this hog hide it's weight assuming it's going to weight in what we suspect? Some automakers do a great job with this, like BMW. Did they find a way to keep weight in check?

How is visibility out the front and the sides? Hopefully not as horrible as a Supra or Camaro. And being 6'2" who likes to sit Abe Lincoln style more straight up, will I fit with a helmet?

Most importantly.. how were your guys T-Levels after driving this on the track and on the streets?
Never driven a 370 before? TBH, existing 370Z owners and established Nissan customers (I've owned a 240SX, 300ZX, G35, Maxima, and now own a 370 and Xterra) should have first dibs on the updated Z.

Now, now......we're not Ferrari people, It's still a Nissan.......don't be one of those Z guys.

I'll never forget the stuck up, snobbish 370Z folks when the 370 first dropped....looking down on the "poor folks" in 350s

I'd bet Nissan barely even cares about the Z or GT-R. I'd think the majority of their current mission is focused on BEV, SUVs and CUVs.

They think the new Pathfinder is pulling in customers.

I disagree - only Millennium Jade R35 owners should get first dibs.

I initially thought the same…however it appears in Aus at least, that they have been caught off guard as to how popular they will be. Qashai was supposed to be delivered before the Z, they have now swapped places, for what reason I’m not sure, but they had reservations for both models, and I’d hazard to guess the Z was far more popular

Drove one years ago when cross shopping. Also drove two 350Zs, didn't end up with either of those at the time, just not what I was looking for and ended up with different vehicles. I just don't remember the car much as it's been a while and just one drive in a 370Z, and I'm pretty sure this isn't going to be THAT much of a copy and paste of that car, it has to be a more diff than that.

This time I'm wanting a 2-door fun to drive coupe, either RWD or AWD with a rear-bias. And I have less options than before to fit that.

I'm sorry but it's a Nissan. Not a Ferrari. So there is no elite club here. You remind me of when I got a laugh going to the 350/370Z forums where people got mocked if they didn't buy Volks or HREs for their Z and ended up getting something cheaper. It's a Z. Still a special car, with a heritage, but it's a Z, a Datsun Z. An "affordable" sports car for the average car lover.
