Nice, just looks shorter. Not sure why some peoples feathers are in a ruffle. Seems Nissan wants the new Z to be a surprise, hopefully a good one! But seriously OP how did you not get out of your car and check the car out?

Holy microscope, Batman! That thing is tiny! I hope it's just an optical illusion with those giant wheels cause with that roof line and that short of a wheelbase it looks stubby and just unattractive.

The frame is probably pulled down because it's chained to the truck.....that's why it looks dropped.

Very good find!


It looks like a Miata or Elise rival.

Most of the lost mostly are within the financial stocks. Most high tech stocks hold up pretty well. If you look at Google or Qualcom, they are not down by that much. If you had money, now is the time to buy.

made an overlay of the 350 vs. 370, assuming that the rear wheel in the 370 picture is an 18" wheel. it may very well be a 19, in which case the dimensions would be all wrong for the overlay. also made an outline of the two cars to help view the comparison in overall body size. didn't do a very good job though. biggest mistake would be making the outline on the rear of the 370 too high.

overall, the 370 appears significantly shorter, but has a longer rear overhang, probably so the trunk space isn't completely gone.

Look closely at one of the cars... it already has the overlay.

Yeah, it's gonna be that much smaller...

the overlay in that magazine looks pretty bad. if you look at the rear wheel the 370z is positioned much lower than the 350, making it look much shorter.

Yeah, I meant I want to see a transparent overlay so I can see how long the hood, cabin, nose, tail, and wb are.
