Interesting and mostly confirms my suspicions. As lovely as it is, I don't think it is $20k "more better" than the Toyobaru.

Also, I wondered about the seats and it appears Nissan still hasn't figured it out. In all the various Nissan rentals I've ever had, the seats are always terrible. Somehow they have an infinite number of adjustments, none of which are actually comfortable. Meanwhile, I can get my good old fashioned mechanical Toyota seats right where I want every time.

Poor Nissan. They really missed the boat not being able to launch this car sooner. Gas is extraordinarily high, credit rates are rising, and consumer confidence isn’t great.

Looks like Nissan has stopped taking orders on the Z.
