The special safety needs of persons outside the vehicle have been addressed with Nissan’s latest safety technology, the pop-up engine hood. When the front bumper sensors detect an impact with a pedestrian, a pyrotechnic activator raises the rear of the hood to lessen the impact on the pedestrian’s head.

Either HK or Taiwan. The writing I see around there is Chinese (and some Engrish)...
Too bad for the car. Looks like the airbag deployed, but in the first pic, the roof does look like it has a huge dent. Ouch.

I think the definition of failure as a driver is quite evident. Think and relax about the fact that this guy managed to crash one of the best handling cars on the road. I hope it was some old guy with a stroke cuz otherwise you almost would haaaaave to be trying to crash. jeez

Judging by the Double decker bus and especially the red and white/silver taxis, it's almost def. HK...

what a waste of a car, but not as eye opening as when Lance Briggs of the Bears crashed his brand new $350,000 Lamborghini Murcielago last year.

If only a human had not been dicking about at the wheel...
Seems the GT-R is planning on getting rid of its human inslavers. Wonder if the car considers itself a kaishkunin in a seppuka (or as the gaijin, such as I am, call it hari-kari) all the dicking about could certainly result in funshi.
