I think this car is a Nissan 300Z, and I have to say to the designers and engineers who toiled away on the safety features of this car, you guys are freaking amazing. This video is being circulated with lots of jokes about the parking prowess of the driver. Watch it and be amazed as he gets out and appears to be fine.
If you did this in any car made before 1990, you'd be well-dead.
Motorheads out there who peg the car for a different model, please let us know in the comments. Whomever designed and engineered this car needs to see this video.

According to the folks over at Jalopnik, it's a Porsche, which meshes with what I see.

Others sites identified the flying car as a Porsche. Same lesson though. Cars keep getting 'safer' ... Drivers aren't.
Car is most definitely a 350z (300zx is made in early 90s late 80s) could be the new 370z.
It's a Porsche Cayman. Not a POS 350z.
I like to align my thinking with the video title. No auto safety advances, just straight-up ROCKSTAR PARKING JOB!
The best way to make a safer driver is to put a spike in the middle of the steering wheel.
the 350z headlights are sharper, these look like the lamps you'd see on a porsche
its a porsche carerra
sorry steven, this is not a 350/370z
the 350/370z have very angular lights.
this has round
this is by no doubt a porsche.
possibly a 997/998 variety by looking at the ROUND headlights.
Definitely a Porsche.
And when it comes to its safety standards, there is no substitute.
yup a porsche... if its a z the guy might end up dead.
I vote 350z based on the larger rear window, the door handle, and the underside..but either way that's nuts.
Video is no longer available. Please tell me some one archived it and has a different link.
