OK, does anybody else have a sudden urge to go smash a nissan?

What's that Nissan carrying to be able to push a semi out of the way? A teaspoon of black hole?

This comment will go to bye-bye land because this is probably a dupe. But I'm too lazy to check.

That's either a very heavily modified GTR or the dude in the Veyron is just taking it easy. Off the line, maybe the GTR launch control (although the Veyron has its own) and lower weight might give it a little advantage, but once they are over 100mph, 1000 hp will stomp on 480 hp. There would just be no contest.

Edit: More info at http://www.zercustoms.com/news/Switzer-Nissan-GT-R-vs-Bugatti-Veyron-Video.html :

"The Switzer Nissan GT-R is equipped with the tuner's P800 power pack which get Godzilla to a total output of 800 hp and 700 lb-ft of torque."

Even so, 200 hp is a pretty big deficit from a running start as in the second clip. I'm still skeptical.

Maybe the Nissan driver really REALLY wanted a Pepsi?

How did that even happen? From the way the Nissan was moving, it looked like when you are playing Mario Kart and the left direction sticks on the controller. I mean, it hit the median twice!

One of the best ideas for a commercial I've seen yet. Bravo Nissan. Now just start making some good cars (apart from the GT-R and some K-car wonders). And bring back the Skyline GT-R while you're at it!

So if I take a Nissan GT-R to a dyno, it should get 485 HP despite variables, like an improper test. If it can't achieve this without tires, then the system is flawed, and not the test.

If you've ever been through airport security, you know that you must remove any jacket. Also, if this technology were adopted by the TSA, you know that the bureaucracy would be very very clear in training how to use it effectively.

>> ^NordlichReiter:
If you cannot pragmatically prove your system works, then it does not work.
Whether the test was flawed or the variables were not well planned for it is clear that this failed.

Should never have made it out of QA.

Hmmm, I feel like I do when waiting for an NBC video to load with all their Nissan commercials.

I'm left wanting more...like a video with content or something.

IT'S DECORATIVE
GOURD SEASON, MOTHERFUCKERS.
BY COLIN NISSAN

- - - -

I don't know about you, but I can't wait to get my hands on some fucking gourds and arrange them in a horn-shaped basket on my dining room table. That shit is going to look so seasonal. I'm about to head up to the attic right now to find that wicker fucker, dust it off, and jam it with an insanely ornate assortment of shellacked vegetables. When my guests come over it's gonna be like, BLAMMO! Check out my shellacked decorative vegetables, assholes. Guess what season it is—fucking fall. There's a nip in the air and my house is full of mutant fucking squash.

I may even throw some multi-colored leaves into the mix, all haphazard like a crisp October breeze just blew through and fucked that shit up. Then I'm going to get to work on making a beautiful fucking gourd necklace for myself. People are going to be like, "Aren't those gourds straining your neck?" And I'm just going to thread another gourd onto my necklace without breaking their gaze and quietly reply, "It's fall, fuckfaces. You're either ready to reap this freaky-assed harvest or you're not."

Carving orange pumpkins sounds like a pretty fitting way to ring in the season. You know what else does? Performing an all-gourd reenactment of an episode of Diff'rent Strokes—specifically the one when Arnold and Dudley experience a disturbing brush with sexual molestation. Well, this shit just got real, didn't it? Felonies and gourds have one very important commonality: they're both extremely fucking real. Sorry if that's upsetting, but I'm not doing you any favors by shielding you from this anymore.

The next thing I'm going to do is carve one of the longer gourds into a perfect replica of the Mayflower as a shout-out to our Pilgrim forefathers. Then I'm going to do lines of blow off its hull with a hooker. Why? Because it's not summer, it's not winter, and it's not spring. Grab a calendar and pull your fucking heads out of your asses; it's fall, fuckers.

Have you ever been in an Italian deli with salamis hanging from their ceiling? Well then you're going to fucking love my house. Just look where you're walking or you'll get KO'd by the gauntlet of misshapen, zucchini-descendant bastards swinging from above. And when you do, you're going to hear a very loud, very stereotypical Italian laugh coming from me. Consider yourself warned.

For now, all I plan to do is to throw on a flannel shirt, some tattered overalls, and a floppy fucking hat and stand in the middle of a cornfield for a few days. The first crow that tries to land on me is going to get his avian ass bitch-slapped all the way back to summer.

Welcome to autumn, fuckheads!

I had to try this for myself, I did not fare much better with an older Nissan Skyline R35 GT-R. (About the same lap time). Yeah that banked curve is a real nightmare.

It sure was alot of fun though! I've read some reviews comparing it as a GRID wannabe but I thought it was pretty damn close. With all of the driving assists off it is almost identical in physics to Forza.

How is that controversial in any way? There are many cars out there that can perform like supercars for fraction of the price, it's no news. You don't buy a supercar just for the performance, you buy it because they're outrageous

Aye, ZR1 is an excellent car, but if money wasn't an issue, I'd go for the lambo every single time given the choice. And if it was an issue, I'd buy a Nissan GTR

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

So lame. Just noticed it on this commercial too:

Which is doubly lame, as I'm sure Nissan has licensed that song.
