It does sound like the current car but... The windows are closed I'm sure the Z would have an aggressive tune so it will be louder and you'd probably hear swooshing like the GTR

wait can we focus on something here.............this is some random dude posting the video.
how would this random have access to a pre-production car before the press/media does? also the 0-60 should be better if it was the TT AWD I feel. hmmm

I talked to him on YouTube he works at an Infiniti dealership and the car was there for training. Said it is the VR TT and there were 4 guys in the car. Also said my stopwatch is broke its a 4.5 spec 0-60 car

That video title says Q50. My opinion is that could actually be a VR30 powered Q50. Infiniti said in the announcement back in December to expect winter release for the car. Maybe he works for dealership. Not sure. |

So hopefully the Z will be 4.2 or 4.3

I know one was "secretly" at a dealership in florida a week ago and I have a hunch it was this one. Q60 wont hit the dealerships until summer/late summer. also re-read my post I said he works at a dealership.

cutting down some fat on the body, interior, and no AWD I would assume (hope) that if the Q50/60 specs claim a 4.5 0-60 that the Z may even touch a magical 4.0 0-60. however in reality with RWD and that much HP without a launch control of sorts it'll be roughly the same maybe like you said 4.3
fingers crossed.

The Q50 AWD is heavier, especially if it's equipped with the spare tire package.
The one to watch for would be the RWD without the spare tire. There's about a 200-250lb difference between the two. It's noticeable - I've driven both and own the current 3.7 RWD Q50S without the spare tire package. If he's getting 4.8s to 60 on an AWD Red Sport with four people in the car... that's going to be a quick *** car in RWD form with only a driver inside. |
