So i just researched this tidbit of info... Thanks. You're absolutely right. But I would like to say this... Nissan throws around that 50/50 weight distribution thing around because of PORSCHE. They copy everything Porsche does. They are the ones who began the 50/50 weight thing. Now I don't know if Porsche was scamming or not? But I clearly remember them selling cars off of this theory.
ANYONE remember th3 advertisements for the 1987 & 1988 Porsche 928 S4?
Well, Porsche had a beautiful picture of the porsche on a green mountain road, possibly the autobahn or a section of the Nurbergrhing or however its spelled. The writing boasted the 928 S4 as the fastest automatic transmission production car in the world. 0-60 in 5.0 seconds and a top speed of 171mph. They boasted high end blaupunkt stereos and features that you didn't see on cars till the year 2001. but the hook of that add was the 928 s4's perfect 51/49 weight distribution. lol. Or 50/50 in the earliest adds.
