However I think the photographers amongst us will agree I used some of the best professional equipment available.

It indeed is a very good lens.. nothing you can do about what a wide-angle does to an image however. I can't remember if the MKII is a 1.3 crop or a 1.6 crop (1.3 I think) which means 40mm on that zoom would get you relatively close to normal.

Nice side by side comparison, I still think the 370Z looks like a fastback version of the 350Z coupe, nothing special in the design department. I kinda like the lights now, front & back.

The 370Z looks 5-10% larger because it is 5-10% closer to the camera...

the 350 is lowered as well, that could be playing a part in the height difference of the two rides.
