Lines are still kinda bad...I'll probably vector the next one in Flash to clean it up a little.
That is MUCH better. Looks 100% badass.

Sick? You mean you don't like it? I don't like it myself...not a lot anyway. It doesn't look like a Z at all to me. It reminds me of the Toyota Celica back in the early 80's.

Either is great, you should get hired at Nissan for a ton of money, and the guy who did the boomerang/fang design should have his dick cut off.

Im sure if this is the case with the headlights, someone will make some overlays or something to bring the shape back into something more pleasing to the eye..

Im not too worried about the new look.

Thanks for the feedback again guys, it's been a great help. I'm glad this design seems to be getting positive feedback for the most part...I'm going to work on getting rid of the fender vents and bringing the hood bump back, so the car looks more like a Z.

I've started sketching a rear end and will have something done hopefully by tomorrow or Friday.
