When hit from the rear, you are pushed back into the seat which then pivots the headrests forward for better head and neck support. It's a safety device..Doh!

(Having been hit from the rear to the tune of $7K in damage and suffering no aches or pains after, I'd venture to say it works..)


:iagree:

If it had been another one of the cookie cutter run of the mill reviews we're used to it would have been passed over. However, it was written to bring out negative emotions and get our attention, and it worked!

:iagree: It's happening more and more in every type of article.

And at the same time he gets a one time hit from me and I will be gone forever now. This happens many times in the computer world, they grab unknown readers who are unaware but they lose the enthusiasts.

Another review. Ehh. Meaningless.

Very true, you'd think they would understand the concept of a longterm loyal fan base. Unfortunately, in this "instant gratification" society, they are going for the "one time hit" as you say.

Sounds to me like the author wants a Caddy not a sports car. I'm not sure he knows what a sports car really is.

Nissan could surely pad the seats better so that you still push back on the seat to pivot the headrest, but you won't feel each runner of the headrest inside the seat back.

I got a kick out of the line "in a pinch, the Z can hustle". WTF does that even mean? If the car is in trouble it can move, but otherwise it's just a slug? Stupid commentary and contradictory to the "smaller horses" beginning to his review.

In only goes fast when you hit the panic button.

Agreed - I'm going to coin the phrase "Jerry Springer Reviews". It seems these people lack any real skill in doing a review so they turn into trolls who bring their poking sticks to get the angst of the car's fan base to get attention. By being extreme people come and check it out and can't help but comment on the absurdity of the review. In doing so they create lots of intrest and action in their comments sections. We've seen lots of nit picking and there is nothing unusual about that but this review is absurd.

For the commentators I would seriously like to see these magic cars with their magic engines that are so vastly superior that the 370Z seems like a Hyundai Pony in comparison. I would love to take them out for a test drive because if the 370Z is pathetic in comparison I can only imagine what these other "cars" would be like.....
