Yes, some ugly cars have made into production but if we focus on the 370Z I guess I would put it like this. The design of the 370Z probably is appealing to the majority. If you took a survey and graphed the responses you would probably find that those who said they "liked" the design would be near the center of the bell curve (the majority), those who "hated" it would be outliers or the edge of the curve (minority), and those who "loved" it between the middle of the bell curve and the edge of the curve. Now, I would believe if you took a survey of the photoshop attempts on this forum (which I do appreciate), the majority of them would be outliers towards the "don't like so much" edge. Some would be towards the center where people "liked" it and very few towards the other end where they "loved" it. I do not know if that makes any sense.
There is a lot I like about the 370, and some things I don't like. I would love to see someone come up with a better solution for the less appealing areas, which is why I think it is good to encourage people to photoshop the car. It doesn't mean anyone will come up with a better design, but there is no harm in trying.

Nope, not taking anything personal. They're just cars. Now if I were the actual designer of the 370Z, perhaps. I actually like both cars, hell, I like all Z's. But the 370Z I like much more than the 350Z. Just seems this forum seems very biased towards the 350Z and it's views do not represent the general public. Seems obvious.
oh ok cool. just guess we respectfully differ on what the general public's views are. cause the feedback i get outside this forum is even overwhelmingly worse. Weird thing with this forum is I guess i dont see why fellow Z owners have a reason to be baised towards another Z of a different era as opposed to people who dont even own any Z's or peeps on other forums. unless as someone mentioned before that they are prob just hating, which just is not the case, well with me i guess...

The self denial of the HR owners across the world
Plastic surgery can cure the Z34 of the fangs....unless you plan on chopping the Z33 you own it will never be as nimble as a Z34 apples to apples
Handling is much more difficult to get right vs mere cosmetics...other than the fangs the new Z looks more aggressive...especially in person

test drove automatic 370z last week, seriously if i have the money i would buy it and start modding from scratch, the new style has major potential personally, i love the rear of the 370z the most. here's some pictures.

Did the sales guy take off running? Is that you in hot pursuit?

The 370z sucks and is ugly, the 370Z has a bass fish mouth, the 350Z is ugly and slow, the front smiles, that irritates me. all Z's I hate. I hate this forum. I hate the color of the background of this forum. 350Z side mirror >= 370Z side mirror. 300ZX front < 280ZX front < 370Z front < 350Z front. I hate my own posts. They suck. My posts < the first post. I hate too.
