Message	Just like Chevy touted their Corvette Ford--the Mustang So you're telling me you remember Nissan saying "This is our New Z33--first Z in 7 years. Its not very good, we aren't proud of it, it's NOT our flagship USDM sports car--if you want that--try the Sentra SE-R. This Z33 was a 'swing and a miss' by us--SORRY." That's not what happened. They'd hoped the Z33 would conjure up fond memories of previous Z's and turn those into Z33 sales. For 40years, the Z car was Nissan/Datsun's USDM "Flagship" sports car. Are you really inferring the Z33 was no longer that?
