Hidden S-mode Features

par4bmw · 02-06-2009, 01:13 AM

Wow!!! I bet none of you knew of these great s-mode features. This is from a Nissan dealer in Spartenburg SC.

YouTube - *NEW* 2009 370Z Test Drive Nissan CHECK IT OUT!!!

LOL, pretty cool how your Z moves when you push the S-mode.

ssqpolo · 02-06-2009, 01:16 AM

nah man...that guy is just retarded. s-mode only enables the rev match downshifts.
the sports package comes with the bigger rims/tires, brakes, etc., but pushing the button doesnt change how fast it goes or how well it responds. I guess it's one of those if u believe it..then u think it really happens type thing.

Wow.. That guy is stupid. "Lighter speed"?

I don't know how this guy would know what a "race car feel" would be when it's obvious he doesn't know much about cars.

AK370Z · 02-06-2009, 01:55 AM

This guy is an idiot. Last person on earth I would buy my car from.

370Z S-mode makes your steering tighter?

par4bmw · 02-06-2009, 09:06 AM

I could not believe that this guy actually sells the cars. His revmatch vid was just as far off.

Sorry for the repost, I did not see the prior thread and stumbled onto the youtube through another vid.

nogoodname · 02-06-2009, 09:48 AM

how does speed become lighter......i don't understand such non-sense

maybe the guy thought S-Mode meant Super Duper Abilities-Mode

par4bmw · 02-06-2009, 09:54 AM

I think they cut the part of the vid where he mentioned the button on the left side of the shifter with the triangle. It launches the rocket engine located on the center of the rear bumper between the exhausts.

...and all of us idiots thought that was only a rear fog light.

nogoodname · 02-06-2009, 09:58 AM

^^ good one...lol.......so that explains the red lights on the rear fogs from the euro version

it's actually a sniper laser

TheManTheMyth · 02-06-2009, 12:23 PM

haha that guy is a moron

nogoodname · 02-06-2009, 12:26 PM

^^ true that

but that moron gets to drive a Z...........what's happening these days

MaximumPwr · 02-06-2009, 03:37 PM

HAHAHA. I came in here all excited like someone had actually found some new S button feature. Very disappointing. =0/

TheManTheMyth · 02-06-2009, 03:50 PM

hahaa the world is a cruel place

3SeventyZ · 02-06-2009, 04:49 PM

haha this made me laugh.

Wasn't it truly incredible how his steering wheel moved, don't you think?

It was also truly incredible how he steered, operated a video camera and talked bo**ocks, all at the same time - quite effortlessly.

And he was quick, quick, quick. He thinks that the 30extra horsepower maybe has something to do with it - and the fact that it is a quicker car.

The steering is tighter, except in a parking lot, where it is looser.

I must stop here before I go mad.

...oh, and you get an entire car for the money. Hmmmm - good idea Nissan.

Let's take a look at the new hatch - CLICK HERE (unfortunately, you really must wait till the very last comment in order to appreciate the full beauty of this video).
