It really does, but how could you record that without sound?! We're all dying to properly hear the engine

I feel like we just ran the 100m hurdle and tripped over the last one

Even if there was sound you wouldn't have heard any exhaust note. Trust me the stock exhaust will sound abysmal. Even on the 370Z, which has bigger displacement and is naturally aspirated, sounds awful with the stock exhaust. The new Z will need a proper aftermarket exhaust; downpipes and catback, to really sound good.

I'm...more hopeful than that. Surely Nissan realized folks weren't happy with the factory 370Z sound, and given the Performance model has the "sport grade mufflers", and the whoosh gurgle of the turbos - using very technical terms here, as you can see - it might not suck.

It's the same car that's been spotted elsewhere. Parallax error, this has the color coded roof.
