I'm sorry guys the 350z looks alot more classier than the 370z will be. I'm not hating either. There is no doubt that the 370 will be lighter and faster and that is probably the only reason why i will like it. To the guy that said the 370z will make the 350 look dated is crazy. Can't wait till one comes out and someone does a comparison as far as looks are considered we already know the about the performance difference. It looks a little to stubby and at some angles it looks very weird. The 350 looks very good at just about every angle. Anyhow that is my take on things.

headlights are straight disgusting. but the tails could easily be fixed if smoked. obviously only on a black one to make it blend it. i don't mind the new look otherwise. it's very sexy besides the lights.
im going to decide when i see it in person.kinda resembles the gtr.

Z32 lovers, (myself included) had many of the very same opinions just before the Z33 came out and now look at us. The rear bumper will either be a "like it or hate it" situation but luckily that the aftermarket will take care of that relatively quickly. In about 2 years, a huge portion of those hating the new Z now will be Z34 owners pissing and moaning about "leaked" Z35 concepts.

There are things I like, such as the headlights...but I hate the frumpy rear-end, and I hate that ugly front bumper. The rear reminds me too much of a Crossfire, Cayman, and Z4 mixed in a blender. Plus those tails just look stupid. The profile looks superb, and the raked windshield is definitely a GTR touch. But the overall look is a C+.
I just think the 350Z has better looking lines that are more consistent. Shame though, because I'd love to have this car...330HP @ 3100lb is going to be insane, high 12s for sure.

If you have the 350z paid off why would you go buy this car for a little more horsepower. All you have to do is go forced induction on your z and let the 370 play catch up all day. Know if you are looking for a new car and your z is not paid off then i guess you could look at a 370. I still think the current z is classier. I'm not saying i won't get use to the look but you can't change the lines of a car. In my eyes the 350 is alot sleeker, classier looking.

When I first saw pictures of the new Maxima, I thought it was a disaster. In the tv commercial it looked better. Last Sunday I finally saw one in person and really liked what I saw. I actually liked the headlights!!
This is what I think will happen with the new Z. From certain angles it looks great and others not so much. When I finally lay eyes on one in person (spring 09?) I think I'm going to love it.
As far as power goes, motortrend did a quick test of the new G37 sedan. 13.5 @ 105. Same engine in a 500 lb. lighter car will have some impressive results.
