"Rendered" For Your Pleasure. Sounds like a condom commercial

That a whole lot cleaner than the mule pics we have seen so I dont think those renders at Jalopnik are accurate. The fenders have a much smaller flat treatment than on the actual 370z mules. I could be wrong but I believe the latest mule pics and videos are showing the final body dimentions and styling. Cant wait for the official release so we can all be put out of our misery lol.

It's definitely a quality rendering. I still love the new Z but I can't wait to see the official pics and numbers.

Fascia is all wrong with regards to the execution of the lip.

If they could have just cut those damn boomerangs off the side of that headlight and shape it similar to the gtr, that would look 3 times better.

After the real photos we saw last week these renderings are weak. This one is a poor photoshop. Still has the 350Z mirrors and old badging.
None the less, always good to see something I guess.

Wow...that is some epic fail. Look at their tail, and look at the actual tail of the car:



For God's sake, there's a revealed shot of the front of the car already from months ago...and Jalopnik still couldn't get the front right.

there are a lot of render details that are incorrect, but it's just too tiring to point them all out--this is nothing new compared to what we've already been able to determine from the covered front shots and forum member renders

How many overlay kits will be made to reduce the "boomerang" effect? There are already numerous amounts of kits for the current headlight & taillight shapes. I wouldn't get too caught up in the light housing shapes.

I'm more concerned to see if this car can hang with the Challengers, Camaros and the new Mustang that will be coming out soon. Ford is even starting to put factory turbos on their engines. I hate to get burnt by one of these "redneck" cars. If a TT Z Roadster was to come out, then I wouldn't have any more concerns.

+1

Jalopnik's pics look just like a regular 350Z. It's like they didn't even try. Fail.

ARE YOU PAYING ATTENTION, NISSAN?

My choice has been whittled down to the 335(x)i (AWD is questionable at this point) and the top of the line 370Z. Turbos are SO much fun when it comes to modification. All gains are significant, the sounds are like an orchestral orgy in your ears, and the power swell is addicting.

The 335 has made it to the 400hp mark with a tune and exhaust.

Man, I'm going to void that warranty so hard...

Ironic that you can actually see the Jalopnik watermark on that pic

i don't think anyone realizes the "linear styling" they talk about in the Edmunds video...the car is going to be much boxier with more rigid lines like in the double hump on the roof...also...the hood has two humps on the side which give away to a hump in the middle of the hood. These are really humps are much as much as they are welded to form the lines

does ne1 know what I mean or notice this?

HA! I was wondering if you were going to address the warranty part! If you didn't I was going to be all over that! Seems like you cannot mod any more without having the warrant police put you in the stocks...

When you say top of the line Z, do are you including the NISMO???
