Jay Leno Has A Z
I have received several PM's this evening about a post from the other site by someone from NBC that says "Jay Leno has a Z and was unimpressed"...Let me set the record straight...yes Jay does have a Z for a few days...Silverstone Track...I wasn't going to post anything until I have a chance to talk with him tomorrow but for someone to say that he "heard' Jay was unimpressed is certainly leaving the wrong impression of what he did say..It's not what he said to me face to face..please people, trust me that I will give you accurate information on this soon

AudioPat,
That's classic!! I was just about to PM you about the same thing.
It will be interesting to hear what Jay has to say, but I don't think it's going to sway my decision. Would be pretty fantastic pub for the car though if Jay loved it and was shown driving it on the lot!!
Thanks again.

I wasn't going to say anything about this till next Monday...there were reasons for my "Embargo"..but rather than try to answer a slew of PM's, I went ahead and posted this thread...BTW..as of this afternoon, Jay had only driven the car about 5 miles..
I'll say this again...He was NOT unimpressed

Hello? Read carefully, people:
NOT unimpressed
As in, the OPPOSITE of "unimpressed".
Kind of like being impressed.
Which is good, but in the ZCar thread someone said he said (hearsay, your honor!) that he would rather drive a Mustang or Firebird, which is the ultimate insult for a Z-lover. But this is all rumor and probably a bunch of BS.
And regardless of what Jay says, remember he also like Harleys, which are slow pieces of sh*%t compared to high-performance sportbikes. (Sorry, you might like Harleys for some reason, but one of those reasons would not be performance, which is what I am talking about here.)

I am not surprised by the possibility of the Mustang or Camaro comment. Leno is a car guy but I picture him more of a domestic car guy.
So I'd take that comment with a grain of salt if it turns out to be true.

Why is it always necessary to put 'catagories' on everything?
What kind of cars did he make his money on when he turned a wrench?
Not what you call domestic.

I used to feel the same about Harley's, loud, slow, but then this
V-rod came out and it looks like a piece of sculpture. How could
you not like this? They don't come obnoxiously loud either, people
pay to have them modified. I want a damn V-rod next to my Z in
the garage!

Jay Leno exists for entertainment purposes only (as does most of California). The fact that he has tons of money and a fleet of Henessey Venoms does not validate why I should care what his opinion of the Z is.

I'm sure that bike has never been described as "sluggish off the line"
