And this is Version Nismo..I wonder if this is just different name for Track version..also the new wheels looks hot!

V.3 nismo bumper looks very similar to V2 without carnards..looks nice.
Also side and rear skirts are changed..looks like C-west type..can't really see.
Rear bumper I have no comment.. but spoiler looks like they've combined designs from v1 and v2 spoiler.. I like it IMO, but just wish that they could delete the middle part of it.. It's always nice to see another version from Nismo.

Damn I like the nismo hood it looks like the buldge doesn't come to a point like the current 07 hood we have been seeing (Could be same hood hard to tell blurry pic).

Eh... from the side it looks the same. Could be just the angle. Looks like the darker the color is, the less noticeable the hood becomes. On that note I don't think PPW would be my 2nd choice for an 07 like it was in 06. I'm sticking with MB but a close 2nd would be SMB.

By the way, you mean .2 and not .02 seconds right? Jsut to clarify.

My dealer received a delivery ETA of Feb 7th from Nissan yesterday for my 07. The dealer ordered the car during the first week of November and he received confirmation of my order on Nov. 8th. from Nissan. Also, no pricing yet.

Let the waiting begin.

So, if the 07 350Z is also acquiring the dual intake and true dual exhaust system (07 Sedan G35)….I have a feeling that the unique exhaust sound on a Z and G exhaust sound will be eliminated. (One thing I miss about the Z)

Here are few pics under the hood of my 07 Sedan G35S

It's not that bad considering that it's the same displacement and it probably didn't lose any weight, the real improvement will be in the throttle response and torque curve, should have much better usable power. The thing to get excited about is the upcoming 380RS or whatever they are going to call it in the U.S. (if we're not a terd-world by then) 3.8 liters wow! What kind of power could we expect to see from an extra 300cc I wonder?

Same here. I don't know if it is just me or what, cause somehow this new hood makes the car look different. (ugly)
