2014 Cadillac CTS V Wagon (6.2 V8 556 hp [3.9s 0-60 mph] top speed 185 mph)

We are E38✅

Z, it sounds good in ALMOST every language. I am looking at you brits. It is not zed.

Thanks sega gt 2002 and grand turismo 4 for letting drive this wonderful machine

Thanks to the Author for a very comprehensive documentary 😅 I am glad i now know Honda's hard-fought story, cheers

Definitely not a brief history at 3hrs... but great content.

Living in the Bay area in Northern CA, I owned a 1983 280ZX and it was the best car I ever had. A had a cool 1971 240Z before it. My 280ZX did over 130 MPH on the San Mateo bridge like a rocket ship with tight controlled handling. I put a new Moterola car phone in it in the arm rest. Working in outside sales at the time, it was one of the best decades of my life. I drove it for over 12 years and then sold it still running perfect. That car was the only car I ever had that spoke to me. It would say Fuel level is low, Right door is open, Left door is open, Parking brake is on, and lights are on. All useful audible warnings. Mine also had removable T-Tops. An Awesome car. ( Especially with my car phone in it. -- A NEW thing back then.)

The ads are just way too much

Sometimes it amazes me I paid over $30k for mine brand new back in '05 and the new ones are selling for over double that right now with dealer markup.

Super share,very informative!

I remember in middle school my parents were looking at both the LS400 and the Q45 and the Legend. I think the Q45 was just a bit too plain jane and they bought a new ‘93 LS400 and then a ‘96 GS300 then a ‘99 RX300 and had a few LS’s from then forward but mostly switching to BMW 5ers. I fondly remember the serenity the LS had. Amazing machine for its time. And still fond memories of the Q45, far less were seen at the drop off and pick ups at school. Seemed usually were the more “boring” parents. lol. But great memories in the few Lexus’ we had in the 90’s.

Thank you for this video friend. I was having a hard time understanding the different models. Now I have a firm understanding.

-I’m surprised the Italian Automobile Maker Alfa Romeo did not decide to go with, “Muncielago” (Italian for Bat) but Lamborghini beat them to it 2001 ( 51 years later). Seeing how Alfa Romeo built these automobiles back in the early 1950s they should have gone with that name instead. But, they were pretty funky looking designs for their day. Note though they were only “concept” cars that never went to production. Wonder if Bruce Wayne/Batman owned one of them?

Few cars have the personality and character of this car. A timelessly desirable dream machine.

A good video for the most part, but I couldn't understand the narrator very well myself.

This is everything we should not do in architecture. It's frustrating that architecture school praises these starchitects but fail to talk about the failures of their houses. As the saying goes "all great architecture leaks", more like irresponsible

I'am arguing with my boss about leaving steel exposed in Texas and now i'am here. Sounds like it's bad.

Glad you jumped into the meat and potatos of the story, unlike the first two videos of yours i watched and dropped out after a few minutes (Nissan being the last and i don't remember the other). Many content creators make the same mistake. Are they short on material to fill a video? Admittedly, i have an affinity to this particular topic but would have bailed on a drawn-out intro. This was a fascinating explanation and entertaining, too, on a subject that i like. Thank you for the effort you put into this!

It had better transmission, better engine, better high speed stability (aero tested) which didn't unalive people, better rear end. I mean, everyone who has a 240 butchers the 280 for each and every one of it's components. That makes it the best.

is there a way to filter out AI generated videos?

It's kinda disappointing that the Prelude, especially the 3rd gen which was styled with similar design cues as the NSX, shared one of the designers, and was an entry level sports car along the vein of the other Japanese manufacturers products, was completely skipped over and ignored here. The only reference I see at all is a picture of the 88, only mentioning 4ws and not even saying the name Prelude. I think it was a missed opportunity. Otherwise, this is a great video with a lot of good info. Thanks

Answering the question: No, I don't consider it close to "the worst". It helps a lot to have been alive and aware of cars in that era. The visceral reaction was directly proportional to the fondness for the original S-30 platform. Nissan made the very smart move of changing the Z into a more comfortable tourer-type car while retaining KEY cosmetic aspects of the original. Those visual connections along with more comfort-aimed features helped the Z remain relevant even while becoming much less of a performer. People should understand that in the '70's and '80's, the US EPA single-handedly turned N. America into a "performance wasteland" across ALL makes/brands/models. To me, Nissan did not fully betray the inconic image of the Z car until the 1990 Z-32 design.

now doa video aboutt he wagons

I was the marketing analyst on the 350Z launch team...I even named a few of the colors. Lot's of great stories...such as the time Dr. Phil asked me to try and get his Z off a container ship during a port strike. I had the keys to and scheduled all pre-pro vehicles, it was like being a god. Good to see Ajay featured, we reconnected recently.

Ls400 ❤

Bro you gotta spit out whatever you got in your mouth first then talk

7:11 is as far as I could make it. You are talking too fast and not clearly at that. Almost mumbling. Sorry. FYI

My 1973 Z started rusting out quick here in SE Looziana. Real junk they were.

I had a 240Z for my first car. 4 years later I bought a 280ZX. The 280ZX was a smoother and nicer driving car but the 240 was still my favorite of the two.

I wouldnt mind the Avanti, but, my heart belongs to the 53-55 coupes. I mean, id settle for a 59-61 lark, or a 64-66... Ok, yeah, i just want another Studebaker.....lol

The multilingual.

Seeing this still pisses me off...

Wish I got to experience the car landscape chance, just getting into car sales - Antwerpen Nissan Clarksville, MD! - and get to drive the full range, coming from Ford as well (wild, history repeats itself, s/o the other person who had a similar experience) I’ve got to experience the Lightning pro, Mach E, Escape, hybrid Lincoln’s as well. Just started and am spoiling myself with test drives, product knowledge heh.. Titan XD fully specced is a pleasant surprise, 5.6 V8, selectable 4WD, AT Tires, spray in liner, adjustable trailer braking, 7/4 way connections, took it on and off a hill and it ate it right up. I felt guilty in the Lightning pro even trying lol, Ariya compared to Mach E is definitely more tamed, more “Luxe” with its interior materials, control layout, steering wheel, leg space in rear, and exterior design in person. Where Ford is a “Mustang” Mach E, more focused on long distance commute (both have 40 min to 80% fast charging, Mach E has 250 standard and 310 extended, Ariya comes with 289 range) tbh if it was me, the area dictates the look of the car so pick your hotwheel I guess but Ariya has better rebates 109 combined mpg to i think it was 105? No difference truly you’re saving like 205 in gas per mo? Compared to a 1.5 ‘19 Accord??? Like??? Lease is crazy cheap, 500 is the new “low” for used or new with trade in and decent credit, so honestly why not save a bit or even eat up neg eq
