VTEC

I was heading to work on Sunday, July 14, when I saw four cars headed towards me. The first two were an orangish bronze color, followed by two silver ones. At first I though they were some S2000s or Audi TTs. When they passed by, I was like, "WTF?"

I was heading west on the 56 by I-5 in San Diego. They were headed east on the 56, where the 56 ends, and becomes a backroad towards Black Mountain Road.

I'm wondering if those cars were on a shakedown run, or if it was some kind of test drive. Would people be able to test drive one before they are officially available? When is the official date?

There is no "official date" yet, there are arrival areas that sometimes change for better or for worse though. No, general public wouldn't have been out on test drives because no dealers have the cars yet.

Odds are it was either a magazine or some press people doing a junket or it was some Nissan regional staff out for some stress relief. Odds are high that the four cars you saw were part of the pre-production batch that are used for the magazine testing etc these past few weeks.

Great find though, too bad you didn't have a camera on hand! That would have been a sight to see!
