>>>QUOTE]aiya, aiya[/QUOTE]

So what does that mean?<<<

Aiya!
Very typical Cantonese exclamation.


Doc, that's one of those terms that don't have a meaning.....


Here's some examples,

Does she like the 350Z cause I think in one part of the video she says "It looks dumb" or something.

She thought it was dumb for me wanting to film the car with the camcorder. She loves the car.

myz350, what time did you see this? I was on the same highway section you were at about 12pm today and obviously I wasn't as lucky as you and I live in Mississauga too. Guess I'll just have to give Nissan Canada header quarter a visit if it is in Mississauga.

BTW, from the video, you guys were wondering where the car was from by zooming into the plate? It looked like an Ontario plate to me. Ontario uses the Four characters and three digits license plate such as ABCD 123.

Thanks for the vids.

i don't think anyone will be taping you mainly because once the car is out, it won't be exciting anymore.

Default 350Z in Canada

"Why does he have it?" Probably because the person you saw driving the 350Z was a head executive at the Nissan headquarters you said was nearby. Carlos Ghosn had his delievered via air cargo July 5th so i wouldn't be surprised if a few other 350Zs were also on that flight. Wish I was an important guy in Nissan but I first have to finish school and then enter the "Real World".
