I was going to wait for a Nismo or special edition, but if it takes 4 to 5 years for that, I will just buy it also and make that one my track toy....
I actually love the shape of the nose itself...what I hate are the wacky splitter and "stuck on" body pieces.

The 350Z is a great looking car....and always will be.....but like the C5 Corvette, it looks good until you put it next to a C6. The same will probably be true of the 350Z and the 370Z....such is the price of evolution.

Yeah its funny how certain cars can still look good until the very end but as soon as the "new" model comes out it looks dated.

I honestly don't think that the 370z will make the 350 look dated at least not by all the pics i have seen so far.

Comparing the 7tune pics posted a LOOOOONG time ago, their renders came pretty close.

For some odd reason, which is beyond me, I'm starting to like it, even the "toothy" front bumper.

Agreed... Whenever a new model car comes out the previous one "always" looks dated.. Bmw E46-E92, P-car 996-997, Corolla's or Civics. LOL You can even see it in the Audi TT's. Like it or not its inevitable.




PS...Geez... Why don't all you Nismo Z haters go post those same thoughts in the Nismo forum..
I'm sure they'll appreciate those comments over there.

I think the 350 is a better looking car, longer and sleeker and not in anyway dated. The 370 has almost the same shape just short and stubby with an ugly rear and funny looking long nose.

Change creates uncertainty, which creates fear, which creates resistance.

No......

Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate; hate leads the the Dark Side.

The Z's is S T R O N G in the dark side of the force. It will conquer and destroy all!!!
