Well, I have never experienced a whiplash system in action before. I just thought it was odd. The best way I can explain the scenario is take a foam drinking cup and put a lid on it, like you do with most fast food drinks. Then, instead of putting a straw in the hole in the lid, put a wooden pencil. Now, assuming the hole in the lid does not rip or tear, push the top part of the pencil away from you. You should then see the bottom part of the pencil moving towards you and trying to push through the foam cup. Now, granted the pencil would likely go through the foam cup if pressed hard enough, and I highly doubt the headrest in the seat would.

There is another Nissan dealership in my town, they actually have 2 new Z's. I will go by this dealership and check the seats in those out.
