The Run

[Scotty]

Hey Everybody

Has anybody seen the latest 350z commercial, known as the Run. Its 40 secs of one 350z hooning arond in Prague, France. Its absolutely awesome and I was fortunate to see it first saw in the cinemas.

But get this, the nice people at Nissan also gave me a demo disc with a recording of the commercial all for myself! So I can now watch it as often as I want.

The thing is, you can buy the full 7 min version plus extras on DVD. Has anybody go that? Wouldnt mind checking it out!

I saw it last week, I think its meant to be a rip off of sorts of that video of the porsche or ferrari or whatever it was racing through Paris in the 60's. The add isnt allowed to be shown on TV so it will only be on at the movies.

[R34GTT-R]

yeah it rocks.going to watch 2f2f in morning cant wait

[surreal]

For those of us not fortunate enough to have an official Nissan CD but who would still like to see it, go here.

Dude, Prague is not in France...

[AndyMac]

I saw it before the Matrix...It was very very Getaway in Stockholmish......

Checz Republic Spelling

[Guest robertr]

try Czech Republic

[Scotty]

whatever, my geography always sucked ass anyway. The point is, the commercial was cool!

The commercial is very cool and it does indeed mimic a movie that circulated many years ago when a film director drove his ferrari through the streets of Paris very early one morning with a comera strapped too the roof to his model girlfriend waiting for him at the end. It remais one of the best peices of footage for car enthusiast going around. It and the ruf Porsche curculation around Nurburgring are my two favourite pieces of driving footage.

If someone gets a copy of the full version of "The Run" I would like to hear what it is like.

i liked how he switched off the VDC and did a drift heheh,engine note sounded sweet too

I think you guys should try downloading Getaway in Stockholm 2 from any of the shareware available (Kazzarr etc)

It features a Supra and Escort Cosworth gunning it around town.

The cooler part abt this (compared to the 350z ad) is that its actually done on public roads and its not staged.

There one part where they run from the coppers and u can actually hear the cops sirens fading away as they power off.

The last part the Supra hits 320kmh.

From what i read the cops were out looking for the 2 drivers after the video was released.

Rates 11/10...imho at least

[Mick Trainer]

Sorry usuckpoo (nice name by the way) where can we get this from? I would be more than a little interested.

[usuckpoo]

Dude,

I downloaded it from the net using Kazaa. (File sharing program: www.kazaa.com)

Its quite large (100mb) so i hope you're using cable.

Search for video files under the name of getaway in stockholm 2.

Theres also getaway in stockholm 1 where they used a 911, but its nowhere as awesome as number 2.

Do it asap man, i dont know what bov the cossie used, but it sounded like a million dollars.

Apparently theres also number 3 but i havent seen that.

All the best!

Another one is a jap nutbag who took his F40 for a run through Tokyo. He got arrested, of course, but made more money by selling the footage than the fine was. :bahaha:

I got the cd-rom from Nissan in the mail the other day. Something missing in it, just seems too staged....

[Soulja]

At 1st it look like a movie i was very impressed (dont like the car much but the ad made me want it )

[CaStLe]

i saw it when i went and watched The Matrix Reloaded

what i wanna know is, does anybody know if you can just go down to your local Nissan dealer and buy the DVD, and they will have some in stock. or do i have to order it from the nissan site and wait 1-2 weeks like it says.

i want it now dammit

anyways, spose the best way to find out will be to go down to the local Nissan dealer. may do that sometime this week

[Soulja]

CaStLe i would try somewhere like kazza if you can't wait im sure someone has cam it or something

[CaStLe]

soulja, im on 56k, so it would take 1-2 weeks to download it anyways. lol

i downloaded the preview from the nissan site.

thing is though, i want the actual DVD, so i can play it on the home theater, and also for the special features.

im gonna head down to the local nissan dealer, will see if they have it there.

[NuGGeT]

dude some guy not sure his nick posted it about 3/4 months ago had the full video and he had to hosted - do a search for it you'll find it soon enough

[Soulja]
