Default Anyone Have non-Press 35th AE Pics

I know some people here have the car, so I thought I have read, but cannot find any pics. Are any non-Nissan press pics floating around here?

Thanks.

Pic from SEMA. Also I just saw a brief review of it on ESPN, forget the exact title of the show, something Road Show.

The Z on the fender is a silver color, rather than stainless steel. Also the car won't hit the dealer lots untill feb.

Thank you. I've seen the SEMA pics, too.

Now I know why I have not seen anything else. It is not February.

I previously thought someone else said they already had the car. From what I understand it will be close to $40k, loaded!

Wow. I cant believe Nissan didnt pony up the cash to come out with a very distinctive badge. I am with mc350z. I will take my flat black, silver circle Z emblem anyday.

Internals...

But with the 300 hp you lose a bunch of torque....no thanks Nissan! I expected more...

It loses about 5% of PEAK torque, but it GAINS torque in the upper rpm range.

True, but you want tourque down low....

That's what it's used for. Once you get up high enough the HP takes over, and the tourque is doing very little for you.

Neither of you have any real idea about the performance because the car is not released and independant dynos have not been done. So arguing about whether or not it has more torque here or there is just plain stupid at this point.

sigh...

most "race" motors make way more HP than torque - and at higher RPMs.

I'll leave you to think about why that is....

I have no dyno plot, however..we know that the standard engine produces 243.1 pounds at 6200 rpms (287hpX5252/6200) and the new version produces 246.2 pounds at 6400 rpms (300hpX5252/6400). So it is making 3.1 pounds more torque even@200 rpms later.

I actually kinda like the glossy black background of the new on opposed to the flat black on mine. I'm gonna get a set.
