I loved seeing the last shot with it driving away with the 350...good comparison.

After seeing that video I feel like I like the car a little better than expected. However, I do think once they take off that mask those front teeth looking things in the grill will kill it for me.

Still dont like the look.

1. Fish fins in the grill=no
2.3rd brake light on hatch lid=no
2.Boomerang headlights and taillights=no
3.Back window curve=no

It looks like they mushed the car together to make it smaller, then took the g37 headlights and altered them a little. Hope it looks better without camo.

I'm sure there are going to be alot of after-market exhaust systems for it that you could get to make it sound the way you like it.

I am beginning to think it will look good lowered. the upswept lower front bumper makes it look extremely narrow and tall (combined with the grill 'things') and rear window shape. I don't know why they are accentuating this if the car is smaller, though seeing it behind the 350z it wasn't noticeably different... though it was a short time together.

Think it might actually look better without the rear spoiler, or maybe one with a different design. But it might be needed for high speed stability like the Audi TT.

Nice to see they are testing against a Z3M Coupe!

Looks are getting better the more I see it...

I never heard the exhaust system for the 350z when the spy cams captured it so many moons ago. Wait until we see it in LA or in person, then you will have something tangible to compare.
