I’ve must have seen people use “Downfall” (or whatever the title is) like 25 times to rant about what irritates them. Never really gets old.
[Still want a GT-R though]
Der Untergang (along with Das Boot) is one of the finest movies ever made.
THAT is sacrilegious.
Hysterical!!
The whole voided warranty thing is BS. How can Nissan put a feature in a car, advertise the shit out of it, show people how to use it, then tell them they aren’t allowed to use it without penalty??
Sue away, owners..
Another Good use of the “tantrum” scene from Downfall. My favorite one is Der Führer finding out his McMansion and Classic Camaro SS are getting Repo’ed. URL
“Anyone who owns a Porsche, I suggest you leave.”
Hilarious!
This is an excellent movie, btw.
Well played.

To my knowledge, they never officially advertised launch control or official 0-60 times either. Only that run around the ‘Ring.
EDIT: I found an edmunds.com article citing Nissan’s 0-60 as 3.5, but I can’t find where they got the figure. 3.5 may have been achieved without LC as well.
@ Areitu: Nissan rep demonstrating it to Leno: http://www.jaylenosgarage.com/video/video_player.shtml?vid=244892 at around 4:00. That’s pretty official.
Has there really been a lot of blowback from Nissan owners on this issue?
so if launch control breaks the tranny after 5 launches, how much abuse can this tranny take with hard launches without the launch control engaged
Cute!
I just hope the kids that view this can recognize who ‘he’ is!
