also there is a vent covered up on the side skirt
i think this is the 370 mule not a lower end RWD car

Definitely a targa there are two extra seams in the roof. The hatch shape is different to accomodate tilting back and retracting the roof pieces I bet.

dont think so, those seems look to be from the body pieces being cut and shortened to make the mule work

In this picture, compare the distance between the A and B pillar on the mule and the Red 350Z. The distances are very different.
BTW, Nissan Corp., if you're listening...please take some time and smart-guy engineering magic to make the next Z LIGHTER!!!!.
Thanks, if you're listening.

The GT-R might be a flagship for Nissan in performance but the Z is the car many will buy just due to economics. When Nissan builds the GT-R and we all go to see it in the showrooms, we might not buy anything if the 2008/9 Z is not a significant jump in performance over our 350Z's.

My prediction:
-The Z will have the exact same engine as the G37 with the same HP rating. (That only makes sense since the 07 Z has the same engine & hp rating as the 07 G Sedan)
-With its growing weight trend, as seen on both the G35 & 350Z, I'll say the base 370Z will weigh in at low 3400's with its higher end model at high 3400's to low 3500's. This is for the Coupe.
-Same brakes & calipers as the G37.
This looks promising. But Nissan doesnt seem to worry much about weight
