Default another 350z vs 370z comparo question

We know that the 370z is updated mechanically and visibly but besides the mechanics, what looks better the 350z when done up nicely or the 370z? What do you guys think?

Why compare stock to heavily modified?

Agreed.

If you're going to use a modified 350Z then you gotta use modified 370Z as well. We will be seeing some modified Fairlady Zs in the Tokyo Auto Salon. I got my eyes on the Zele.

Here's a nicely done chop for ya to compare.

well thats kinda my point...Alot of ppl are comparing the 370 to the 350 but a stock 350 definately looks a little outdated. However,fixing it up a little (or a lot) would this make you reconsider sticking with your 350?

This question is pointless. Looks are subjective.

The 370Z is going to look fantastic when properly modded.

Who cares what others think?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

To all those "I hate my car being described as dated, by complete strangers..." type folk.

Like it or not and regardless of its looks etc.. The 350z will be dated when the 370 hits the streets.. For one simple fact.. The 370 is the newest Z to date.

Should anyone care? Nope... Like before.. Either you like it or you hate it. Who gives a crap what others think.

All Z's are cool. Who cares about 350Z vs 370Z.

The only cool thing we got out of this thread is the chop of the modded 370Z. Looks very mean.

Man, I'm still hoping the headlights and taillights are changed a bit throughout it's lifespan. It's still impressive, I'm just not in love with the looks.

I highly doubt this....it's pretty obvious the majority of people love the car as it is. You might see some very minor changes in a couple of years such as new rims but I wouldn't count on much more.

I wouldn't go that far, google "370z ugly" and see how much pops up.

I doubt many of those comments are from people who have actually seen the 370Z in person.

No offense but what would you expect me to see if I were to google "370Z UGLY". I could do that for every vehicle ever made. All your doing is proving that looks are subjective in the end.

I think it's pretty obvious that the car is well liked amongst not just the 350Z crowd but many other automotive enthusiasts as well. If you think it isn't your simply in denial...

Use this poll as an example. This is from our very own site and keep in mind this is before any of us got to see it in person:

If Nissan pulls head out of anus and makes these fixes, I will be first in line to buy a 370Z.
