Turbo95Max and I noticed that segment near the end (before he comes to a stop)... the noise the car is making sounds like a turbo spooling up. Got boost?

hmmm....so does this somehow imply that adding a turbo will not void the nissan warranty

Spoiler Alert...

Just downloaded the ad and noticed something revealing about one of the shots in the commercial. I typed the details into a .jpg file so I wouldn't spoil it for anyone not wanting to know. Kind of let some of the air out of it for me. No big deal, but...

If you listen in near the end of the commercial, there is a whistling sound. I have no experience but does it sound like some sort of blower, like a turbo- or super- charger?

(I think I am really, really, really, out in left feild, baking in the sun.)

Then I guess that it only validates what you said.

I must have been smokin' crack. Not the crap you find in Harlem but the high quality Sh|t!

(I think we will both start smoking the stuff before Nissan puts a VQ35DET (VQ35DETT????? droooooooooool) into our pride and joy.

When we got the video tape from Nissan about a week before the commercial aried, i was blown away! It made me hum that song so much ibrought out my Suzanne Vega album from forever ago! (imagaine that). but anyway, to answer a lot of the gossip, the truth is this....the only mod that car had was a CAI, honestly. and as far as the sounds go they were all added later. They wanted to give a sense that the car was "flying" and it obviously worked. Nothing you hear from that commercial is coming from that exact car, nothing. as far as the photography goes, its all live action, nothing is edited, except for some cropping of the frame. In any case, give Nissan a break guys! Its a kick *** commercial, ENJOY IT!!!!!! :-)

If anyone here is using Windows and would like a good freeware screensaver that runs multimedia files (including .MOV files), check out AVI Screen Saver at:

Have fun.

Did you see the other two

There are 2 more commercials at this site. One is a little different version of the one we're viewing now, and better in my opinion! The other commercial is totally different; shows some of the manufacturing process of the Maxima.

I hope you have a high speed connection! I downloaded and saved all three.
