Looks similar to my favorite sketch so far:



Cool find! Thanks!

Not really much of a change. Just looks like a normal z with a different body kit, hood, eyelids, shaved handles and crappy altezza tail lights.

no real huge leap in imagination but still looks okay

thank goodness. I like the sketch much better posted by ghoover that proteus said was the closest thing he's seen to what the focus group was showing.

btw, proteus, did it look like a new evolution of the z car or did it just look like a new "facelifted" version?

Basically that's whats going to happen. I hear the new Z will be several inches shorter...guess this 6'4" guy will have to wait till they make a bigger Z

I dunno why you guys don't like it. I think it looks fabulous from what angle is visible. Now, just gotta see the full rear and rear angles. If it has the 325whp like what the spy video said, Im definitely getting it.

Default January will tell.

I'm hoping against all hope that Jan will be the month the concept is shown.
I'm Keeping my fingers crossed. I have a feeling that the new Z will be very similar to what we are seeing, i.e. bigger wheel wells, vented front panels ,more aggressive overall. I'm counting on at least 330 horses.

I'm with you. Make it look like that. Add 10-20 HP lose 100-200 lbs., and you've got something.

I'll put a deposit down the day it's unveiled if that's it.
