...come on.. it's just a conspiracy. He crashed the porche on purpose just to lower the german car population. I'd rather have a skyline... :(

Yeah I tried to imagine how you could get hit by three trains two of which running 150mph no less. That guy had some serious bad karma going that day.:eek: He wnet out like a man though, see the hole he punched in the nose of that train, went down swinging!

Just guessing, but I would bet money that the CEO's at GM make more than Ghosn AND that they drive GM cars. I think they understand the politics of their business. I do know that Lee Iacocca had 2 K-cars in his garage as CEO of Chrysler.

How do you guys know he doesn't own a Nissan? Just because he was driving a porsche doesn't mean he doesn't drive a Nissan.

Whoa, I was so sure that the Nissan CEO would be Japanese. He is the boss of Nissan right? Not just like the boss of Nissan Europe or something right?

Nissan is still Japanese designed, and the drivetrains are still built in Japan, they are just financially supported by Renault. It's not the most glorious thing, but at least Nissan didn't go bankrupt; since they were well on their way to.

As far as the CEO crashing his Porsche? Not surprised. What a pansy.

Tu est travelo! Nah, you're right... well... like Sky said, it's not glorious, but it means that Nissan is still around. If I was filthy rich I'd have a Porsche as a daily driver too, the V (or G, or whatever you want to call it) would be my project :D.

if he is a Renault exec tapped to head Nissan after the buyout why isn't he in a Renault? He's in a German car, no corperate or national pride.

I personally saw on of those "woody" K wagons run that fast. It had a goofy homemade scoop on the hood that had "WOOD SCOOP" written on in with magic marker. That was some funny crap. Wicked fast though.

Good times!

**** that I would have an R390... you get the brand name and the prestige, that car is rare as hell and could take out just about any supercar.
