DRIVING: that's what it's ALL ABOUT! A blog and website for automotive driving enthusiasts, featuring my interests as I see them: news and opinion about manufacturers of interest, significant enthusiast cars, and driving them hard and well.
And then there is the Z. Several test cars have been caught in Germany this past week, and almost every angle has been shot including the interior. The car is very clearly lighter, shorter, and wider. And we should have the data to quantify that in a few more weeks.
The new Z rides on the new much improved FM platform (aka 2007 up G35/37) - and that means a considerably improved suspension with way beefier bits and much taller tires - with (and it's about bloody well time) adjustable camber. That means the Z becomes truly track worthy for the first time - that is, without having to spend about a thousand bucks for new and adjustable parts and pieces. Lots was wrong with the current Z, and it looks like Nissan is about to deliver a far better one.
Remember that it's not always about the driving experience: there is still the living to make and the geek gear to enjoy. My favorite geek gear is my Tablet PC. Haven't ever seen one? Look into it, give it a try, it will absolutely change your entire computing paradigm.
Wonder how to find other professionals to discuss? Join us on http://www.linkedin.com/groups?gid=66744 in the Tablet PC Enthusiast group to talk about what we're doing professionally with these - and it's not all in the corporate world either.
