yeah looks way too close to an Aston Martin

just change up the front a little

i mean it looks nice the way it is because i love AMs but if you wanted more originality the front should be changed a little. Headlights def look better than those crappy boomerangs

If this was the next Z (with the aforementioned change - 330 HP, less weight), Nissan would so have my $; no matter what the 135i or the next rotary are like...

Message to Nissan:
Man Up
Go big or go home
Honor or Death
Carpe Diem

Thanks for the feedback everyone, and also for letting me know about the DB7 reference...to avoid any resemblance and copyright issues I'll definitely alter it later on.

Way too many fins on the front bumper. The hood doesn't do it for me either.
