I'm 100% with the OP there. I can't get past the catfish styling of the new 370z. I also don't particularly like the rear humps. I mean if I want power humps, I'd be getting a Mustangs. They're both ugly but at least the Mustang got 70 ponies over the Z. Besides at least the Mustang had a somewhat cohesive design, but the 370Z just looks like a clown.
Why Nissan why?

I just signed up here to revive this thread and let all you delusional ricers know that the 370 does in fact look better than the 350. I'm not even going to call you idiots jealous, because obviously you are fine with your plain ugly looking 50. And I would take the newer model's exterior, including catfish headlights, over the old one any day. It's cute that you guys think the 350 looks better, keep telling yourself that. Every time I pull my 70 to my friends 50 he can't stop staring at my car and I can't even look at his. Seriously if you guys want to talk crap about lights, the 50 has an even uglier ****. I just hate kids like you guys who think you are cool because you have an old Z worth 10 grand.

I love my 350z. I like the 370z. Will I buy the 370z, maybe, but it depends on gas prices and what up coming changes they make for the 370z. There isn't a drastic difference between the two like there was between the 300 and the 350. I think the 370z looks pretty slick, but it's not a Lamborghini Aventador in terms of styling. Even when I bought my 350z, I wasn't thinking..."holy crap this is super awesome looking". I think both cars are catered to moderate styling and they both achieve it. I do find it funny that we talk about who can afford what and whatnot. If you're driving a 350 or 370z, you're most likely middle class. The difference between making 50k and 100k is a joke to the upper class. It's like monkeys competing over who can sling their dung the farthest while the handlers watch in amusement.

370Z sales lately are terrible. Remember they stopped building Z's for a while in past. When FT86 hits streets sales of Z's will plummet this next year. I think 370 Z is phased out 2014 and no Z replacement until 2016. Even Godzilla GTR is in danger based on what I see happening in the industry with all the new global regulations on fuel consumption but less so than 370Z which has to sell some volumes to be profitable for Nissan.
With new Renualt platform sharing strategy its not going to be profitable to make a seperate Z car that cant use engine parts from its core lines. So they will either use Mercedes motors or I'm betting a turbo 4 or Hybrid that isnt anything like Z's of past generations.
