Default where is VDC button

where is the VDC button located on the 350z? I haven't been able to find it for the life of me although I'm pretty sure my car is an enthusiast, which isn't suppose to have one, but I have the 18" 6 spoke wheels which is what the performance package offers, so i just want to double check.
regardless do u all notice a notable difference with the VDC off vs on

If you have it, it should be to the left and down from the stearing wheel, near where your gas lid release is. At least that's where it is on the '07.

If the button says VDC then that's what you have, if it says TCS, then you have just traction control. I wouldn't recommend turning this off during normal driving. I Z can get antsy in the wrong conditions, so it's nice to have it just in case something happens. Some people might argue that you can't need it unless its raining. I say, Nissan didn't make its default position ON for nothing.

No VDC. My god looks like you will have to drive the without dynamic control. You are risking your life.

But you have to admit for less experienced drivers, or inexperienced drivers of RWD, it's advisable to leave it on.

There is only one button. If it says TC it is only traction control. If it says VDC, the same button controls both.
