Those rims on these chops have to be bigger than 19s right? Also Can you make a chop of that same pic with a black car and the stock 19s in black. It would be much appreciated.

follow the body from the top of the front fender well (wheel opening) down to the bottom of the bumper. that is a loooong strip that visually increases the height of the car. then look at the area between the outside edges of the headlights straight across at the lowest and highest point compared to how wide the car is. again, it 'scrunches' up the width.
if you look at the unmodified lights you can see how they use those same areas to optically widen the and lower the car but putting the bulk of the headlight housing low, and following the shaping of the fender.
the rear lights are the most glaring example of bad light shaping. terrible.
(this is just my opinion)

All the car mags say the old Z was the best sports car available for under $30K. I think the same still holds true for the new Z.

^we were talking about his changed headlight design on the chop. but it's hard to say the car won't look more narrow and tall since the car was shortened but height is the same (from what I recall), and is not any wider. the proportions are different.
but yeah, I am very excited to see this car in person.

The headlights blacked out will make that look amazing!!
Why cant Nissan throw a more aggressive offset on there!! Lowering, wheels, blacked out headlights and a few other mods and that will be HOT

Well, as long as he's arguing about it... he may as well get it right.
Is it really that hard for you to follow?
Motormouth: but height is the same (from what I recall), and is not any wider
ZZtopp: New Z is 1.3" wider and .3" shorter in height than previous car
Motormouth: and it is 1.1 wider.
ZZtopp: 1.3" wider according to Nissan

Nissan engineered this car to provide you with mod opportunities. They probably didn't want to sacrifice handling performance with aggressive offsets.
