    Okay, the US-market Z in black and gold is hawked by a guy sporting a perm and porn-stache, open shirt and gold chains, and the JDM version has an ad with a pr0n-like instrumental score. At least Nissan is consistent with their target demographics...

    I know I've heard that background music somewhere. I think in some of my uncle's, uh, not-appropriate-for-children-or-anyone-for-that-matter VHS tapes. Don't ask me how I know.

    I'd prefer one generation to either side, but I would still hoon the hell out of that car. I miss T-Tops.

    Oh - to stir up some controversy, my grandfather's old secretary, in her late 30s at the time, had two of these (one silver, one black) and, later, a '90s model that she let me ride in. We got up to 85 on a curvy half-ass state highway - one of my happier car memories.

    @c0de: Not two at the same time, no. She bought 'em used and her husband was fairly well-off, as I recall.

    My roommate in college had one of these with the "T-Bar-Roof". Fun car. The roof didn't disappear like it did in the commercial, though. He kept it locked.

    The US-market "Awesome" ads are much more, uh, awesome.
