Nissan Z Media Test Drive Event Underway @ Las Vegas Motor Speedway

[TaroBaapG35]

Seems like power is cut (TCS not off fully, but I do see a light on) or he let's off throttle.

There'd have to be a nuclear war for the streets to be that empty around here.

^ Don't know what to make of this because I'm almost certain that is a rendered environment he's "driving" in.... and not a very good one at that.

And, so it begins...????

 

[Blackbeard]

lol either i counted mississippi to fast or something is wrong from the peddle smash i counted 6

 

[DevonK]

Not sure but not the best 0-60 regardless

This is a real video nothing is rendered. He's in Las Vegas testing the car right now. For those that don't know he's a car youtuber.

Here's exactly where he is driving the car on google maps..

I don't doubt the location is legit but I still think it's a render, compare the ridiculous level of geometry distortion in the vid to your Google photo, especially the buildings straight in front, they look like they're ready to fall down.

He went from 40 to 51 and back down to 48 before passing 60. Not a good true representation of 0-60 timing.
I'd guess about 4.3 sec though

It's not a render. Why would he render this? He's literally out there testing the car right now? In fact the video got taken down that's how you know it's not a render lol.

Does anybody have a mirror? I missed the video.

Probably taken down because it looked so shitty....

Vid just popped up in my feed...



Seems I was right. Grey sport pack car has different exhaust (Nismo) vs oem

Wow. Who exactly are these kids who get to drive the new Z?

 

[Denver the Last Dinosaur]

Who exactly are these kids who get to drive the new Z?

They're just internet "influencers" ... basically brainless non-entities that have managed to con lots of people into watching their 'social media' channels (usually by being stupid, supposedly funny, and/or highly attractive and wearing skimpy clothing). Big companies are jumping all over themselves giving these types of fools stuff because it's basically just free advertising for the company. Some of these "influencers" make a massive amount gf money doing it as their "job".

Wow. Who exactly are these kids who get to drive the new Z?

Illiterate fucking idiots. Didn't watch the video, but is it the same couple who both forgot to put the Z in "drive" how the hell is Nissan letting these idiots play with these cars?

 

[trackratZ]

Hurts to watch these social media 'influencer' idiot videos! Nothing new and useless. Nissan needs to get more serious with the Z, or will be mocked. Still waiting for the real objective testers to wring it out, hopefully by May 16 like they promised.

At least they are not doing this with the manual, yikes:

Can you imagine buying a $704,000 car, and having no clue how to drive it?

Worse still, can you imagine wanting a Ford GT, but having no clue how to drive stick? A guy that age should know how to drive stick. Instant man card revocation.
