I hope you guys realize there are limits to all this technology. VDC won't magically save your Z from flying off the road when you enter a turn at 80 mph after a second or so of reading the warning sign to slow to 30 mph for the upcoming turn. The way some of you are praising VDC is scary. I have no doubt that someone will eventually try to blame Nissan on their poor driving skills or false sense of security by saying the VDC failed to function as advertised after writing off their car in a turn. Air bags. Like VDC, won't save your soul when you're over doing it and decelerate from 100 - 0 in a fraction of a second. Leave the ABS alone. That's just stupid to disable it. Parking assist. If you need it to parallel park, you shouldn't have a driver's license. All this technology is slowly taking away some fundamental driving skills.
