It's pretty common these days for the manufacturer to set an embargo date and time because of the immediacy of the internet. That way no writer/publisher has an advantage over another when they do the press launch and magazine A sees the car on Monday while newspaper D sees it on Wednesday. I remember seeing this when the ZR-1 was launched. It used to be based on the date a magazine would hit the newsstand. I'm not sure if that is the case anymore.
