I've been to Japan 27 times (I think) and have seen most everything Nissan does including watching a hydrulic battering ram destroy a 350 from the side to check side impact details. It was silver and after the ram hit the Japanese techs and I all had tears in our eyes. No language probleme here.
I've seen our competitors cars torn completely apart for study and, with the exception of the GTR, I think the Z is a showcase of technology and quality in manufacturing and build. The car is a religion over there and if you are lucky enough to be an assembly tech or designer it is something you will tell your kids about. Hard to explain but the car should cost +60% of what it does. It's a true gem I think.
