Finally saw 350Z in Toronto!!! I have video!
I was driving home from Square One today after attending my friend's wedding ceremony in Mississauga, and I was thinking to myself, hey maybe I'll get lucky and see a Z today since the Nissan headquarter is around Mississauga. so I as I was going off the ramp from 403 to 401, I spotted a Blue car from a distance, and I started getting excited. "No way?!" I said to myself, could it be?! I shouted to my wife sitting beside me, "Is that the Z?!" She goes "Nah, it's a Audi TT". But I know those tail lights! I've been staring at them on my wall paper on my computer for the past 2 month. So I steped on the gas and there it was, a Daytona Blue 350Z crusing right in front of my eyes! With Ontario licence plate!!! I don't know how this guy got the car but it sure looked sweet moving along the highway. Lucky that I got my camcorder with me so I captured the whole thing. The only problem is getting it to you guys. I have it on my computer as 50mb mpg file, and also have some bmp snap shots. If someone can teach me how to post it, I'll be more than happy to share it with you fellow Z lovers!

the license plate is different from the other z's we've seen....
Wonder if that's a production model.....or is that candian version of the one we are used to.

Yup! My wife is Cantonese, and I'm Taiwanese. She was the one shooting the video, I was the one driving, that's why the movie is not very well shot, but can't really blame her though, we were going 140 KM/H.
BTW, the Daytona Blue looks much better in person, much better than the video or the pics on the net. I can't wait to see my Le Mans in person as well! Maybe I'll get lucky again before October(that's when my Z is suppose to arrive).
