waizz,
First of all, nice work and thanks for the report. Would you say that with the turn signals and reverse lights gone, that they all integrate into the boomerang light? That would definitely clean up the rear like a Z32 which is one of the best car rear ends of all time IMHO.

I did'nt notice an amber colored turn signal in the cluster, that means unfortunately that our turn signals-indicators will probably be red. The reverse lights did'nt pop out of the page, so its a pretty harmonoius look.

I just realized there was one aspect that I totally forgot to mention, the rear spoiler.

It flowed well with the car, but I noticed that it was not flush with the car like the current spoiler. It sat a little bit higher with seemingly like 4 notched posts attaching it to the car (one for each corner and two closer to the center).

Similar to this picture below, but much closer to the car. I thought it looked pretty cool since I haven't seen that look on any car from the factory, only in the aftermarket. The spoiler was body-color matched, but I can't recall if it has a stoplight in the spoiler or on the hatch.

I think it's on the trunk, judging from the rear-shot leaked picture.

Very close. But the fangs seemed smaller and the slots in the grill were not as noticeable.

The lights are prety much dead on..

I did a search on google, and I think this is what he's talking about. this info was posted around 3/08, noticed the rear bumper is exactly the same as the camo Z pic. It has the tow hitch as well

Yep. most of what I saw was very close to these pics.

The steeering column with 08-11 underneath doesn't look right though..

You can see the R-8 type headlight treatment on the last pic too. Its nearly spot on..

Maybe because it's missing the steering wheel?



Those LED daytime running light-type things look to be running down the inside of the headlights to give it an aggressive furrowed look.

Kind of disapointed in hearing only 330hp. I thought the Z was supposed to be tuned more aggressive than the Infinity line?
