I agree keep the "sports" look however a few "safety features" to save lives and for the sake of safety doesn't distract from the car at all. In fact most of the safety features in the Nissan Intelligent mobility package are transparent to the driver and don't hinder the vehicle "look" or "feel" of the car at all.
May even justify the current $40,000 + price tag!

Driving nannies encourage poor driving habits and distracted driving. People rely on them more than they pay attention these days. It is not a good thing.

This isn't about aesthetics. And they absolutely do hinder the "feel" of the car. When nannies interfere with my driving more often than not it's an unsafe interruption.

The most important safety feature sits on your shoulders. Use it.

unfortunately my friend these are the times we live in..teenagers on cell phones texting while driving, women trying to put on makeup on the way to work while driving etc...I see it every day...makes the NEED for these safety features in every car essential as saving lives especially the lives of others who are victims of these poor drivers.

No....it makes the NEED for using that lump that's three feet above your a$$ all the more essential. The best tech in the world cannot make up for poor habits being utilized.

LOL, you would have a heart attack if you rode with me. I use no nannies at all at 825whp. It's all me. What a load of BS you are spewing. This is a Drivers car, not some lame wantabee drivers car.

I wouldn't mind blind spot monitors. I've almost gotten over on people who have flown up behind me on the right.

Meh... let Darwin sort it out, I say.

Put those nannies on soccer mom SUVs and such. Leave them off my sports car options.

Get with the times pal! Guaranteed the new Z (if there is one) is going to incorporate a lot if not all of these Nissan Intelligent mobility features.

Lets face it the Z is still and will always be a beautiful unique car that even though the design is 10 years old can still hold its own is uniqueness and pure sports car "feel" I LOVE the design of the Nismo Z! Hell it is one of the few true "sports" cars that you can still get with a manual transmission!!!! however every single Youtube review from Doug Mauro to Four Bros speed etc list the interior and stock power as the car's weaknesses
It's due for a power and technology update.

How much more "weight" do you think these safety features add?
If weight is your concern you can start with an aftermarket exhaust and go from there..

Making it a less desirable car. The current Z is one of few cars you can buy new that are not loaded with bloat

So..proven safety technology that could potentially save lives that could be seamlessly integrated into the vehicle making it transparent to the driver is bloat?
