The Z lead all the cars at ZCON on a lap around Pikes Peak raceway. Man I wish I was there.

I absolutely love how the Z looks from this angle, it really shows how wide those rear fenders are.

I wonder where the yellow one is.

I wonder where the yellow one is.

Based on recent interviews... in a building overlooking the Vessel, Hudson yards

They only brought the blue to ZCON per Dan's interview by Stevewithaz.

Finally a look under the hood!

Were you at the event @Wiggle Herf?
I wonder what changes they made to how things are set up here versus the Q60.

I was there! Drove the Nismo down from Denver for some fun around the Springs. The car looked great! It's somehow much smaller in-person than I had imagined - even though it's basically the same as the 370z. The rear tightens the bulk of the entire car nicely in-person. I'm a bit nervous about all the piano black along the rear of the bumper, though. Bumped into Chris Forsberg and our pal, Dan! Awesome day!

was it the cloud cover or are the head and tailights in an outside setting look more tinted in real life?

This is great to know! Nissan did a great job wrapping the body tightly with sweet design elements around that rear and sides, especially with the black roof. I remember when I first saw the FD RX-7, what a purposeful design that was, and still is.

It was pretty cloudy, but I agree, the head/tail lights appeared darker. Headlights especially.

Fantastic photos @Wiggle Herf! Were you able to drive on the track with the Z around the Pikes Peak circuit?

Here's some more photos of the Z from ZCON. Larry Chen shared these on his instagram page.

No, unfortunately I didn’t have a chance to participate in any of the events. I just made it to the free cars and coffee meet, then did a cannonball run of Pikes Peak (the mountain) on my own.

That's still a great way to spend your time at Zcon. How was the run up the mountain?

Oh yeah! It was seriously the best day. The drive up Pikes Peak was one of the most fun, yet - almost no traffic. On the way down I hit a milestone as well - 86 degrees on my brakes at the check-point. I was proud of that one.
