The video will mostly be driven by interviews to start. Talking about how the car came about and some dire realities about fun cars. It transitions into the technical parts and changes with car and why. All completely vetted by Nissan, as we discuss front to back. (We had engineering there) Then the drive and the honest conclusions about where this car is today and in future.

What is left off the table here in all lauch videos... how do the production cars compare to competitors on street and track.

I consider this chapter 1 for people.

I hope that there is at least a nod to street driving in your review. Love the track driving content but the primary criterion for me in deciding whether to exercise my reservation (besides price) is how it drives on-road.

Only launches, what about other transitional comparisons - slalom, figure 8, skidpad, track? What I'm looking for really.

Thats not happening on initial launch videos until the production cars get in press fleets. But those static numbers like that are un helpful for so many reasons. Unless cars are on similar tires, same, day same surface, same temperatures, humidity... To get a fleet of cars in that condition at same time is usually not cost effective.

We started doing lap times on cars and realized quickly how much variation there was based on wind speed, track temps, how rubbered in track was, dust it became meaningless.

It will be great on-street. It won't beat you up. I drive my 370Z all over the country and it's comfortable, even while I have a HKS coilover suspension on it.
