I like everything on a Z. Even if it's all banged up and gay. I love my Z. I love all Zs. Even gay ones. I love gay Zs.

It looks so mean and performance inspired. Especially from about 15 cars back, it looks like the Z has a supercharger on it or something...anyways just my thoughts...

and no I didn't try to get the chicks # or anything...I was in a rush
she was prob just being nice anyway!
I agree about the hood!

But she didn't wink at you, you just couldn't see her other eye!

It's funny how quickly public opinion changes...

I like the old hood better IMO.

Well unless you like being called lump boy you should NOT get the 07 hood if you have an 03-06 model.

I don't really favor the 07 hood, but then again if I owned an 07, I wouldn't mind it. Its almost reminiscent of the 240Z hoods

I see an old datsun when I look at the lines on the hood, so it doesn't bother me, in fact I actually like the hood.

My guess is most people who don't like the new hood design, never owned or liked the old Datsun Z's. I could be wrong though....

the new hood makes it look like a whole new car.
I think it fits the body lines alot better.
Maybe Im biased

seems to me most of the people dont like the 07 hoods because they dont own a 07... its not like the hood really matters does it?

I don't really care, but the 07 hood just doesn't have any lines to it, it looks like a lump. Kind of reminds me of the hemroid the BMW 650 has on its ***.
03-06 hood has some nice simple lines to break it up.

The 07 hoods still haven't grown on me. The hump in the hood looks right on the 240zx, it's more subtle and matches the lines better IMO. The hump on the 350 doesn't really flow well for me and looks clumsy, I like the sleek look of the 03-06 more.

Subtle:



Clumsy:
