Default I Think They Are Marketing Nissan...

The Z's sell themselves. I think they might be trying to market the entire 2003 product line using the Z as a showcase. A sort of "Nissan: Innovators, Makers of the Legendary Z - have you seen our other new products by the way?" kind of thing...a part of their comeback strategy

They aren't trying to sell the 350Z - they're trying to sell Nissan as an industry leader.

There's some joke trapped in there about orange peel...

If you want to see an incredible commercial for the 350Z, just take a look at this file that I still have on my web site. It was actually made for the Tokyo Auto Show, but there is nothing like it in the U.S. Nissan could scrap all of their other TV commercials and just run this one, but then everybody would run out to buy a Z.

You can play it in Windows Media Player by left clicking on the link, or save it (recommended) with a right click - it is about 12MB:

The Z looks fast standing still!

Who needs to see it in motion? Speed is implied. This ain't no four door grocery getter.

devaraj... Thanks!

That .wmv is awesome! They could take just the last 30 seconds and make it into a US tv ad...

Basically, WE are the advertizing for the 350Z and Nissan doesn't even have to pay us! In fact, we paid them. Eventually they will have to put out more commercials/print ads, but right now, they don't need them.
That sucks about what happened to McNabb on Sunday. I am not an Eagles fan, but it always sucks when a team's best player goes down.
