Bad Spies

[motorman7]

Of course we see a nice picture of the new 40th anniversary 370Z, but the spies have misidentified the 240 shown in the pics. It's obviously a 1970 Safari gold 240Z. What were they thinking?:stupid:

Yes , Just thought the whole spy thing was kind of funny as it was not very secretive at all. They did let me drive The 370 for the 'Dynamic photo shoot'. Was pretty fun with plenty of horsepower. Only bad thing is the track is really a motorcycle track and not a car track.

Oh, not a car track, SO you complain ? ! ! . Really though please tell who did you have to know to get approached for this awesome test drive . Did your Z happen on it's new found friend at the gas station or did you buy the right secretary a drink at the pub

I was first introduced to the Nissan USA folks through our Z-club, ZCCIV. They had my car in thier booth for the October 2009 JCCS show along with Yokohama. They wanted an original '70 Z to show with a 2010 370Z.

They recently called me up about 6 week ago and asked if the car would be available for this photo shoot. I will probably blog that experience later.

Nice to see the car getting a little press. Dad will be happy to see that.

I'm in the 370 and my son is in the gold 240 for the dynamic pic.
