Now, I would believe if you took a survey of the photoshop attempts on this forum (which I do appreciate), the majority of them would be outliers towards the "don't like so much" edge. Some would be towards the center where people "liked" it and very few towards the other end where they "loved" it. I do not know if that makes any sense.
I agree with you.

There is a lot I like about the 370, and some things I don't like. I would love to see someone come up with a better solution for the less appealing areas, which is why I think it is good to encourage people to photoshop the car. It doesn't mean anyone will come up with a better design, but there is no harm in trying.

oh ok cool. just guess we respectfully differ on what the general public's views are. cause the feedback i get outside this forum is even overwhelmingly worse. Weird thing with this forum is I guess i dont see why fellow Z owners have a reason to be baised towards another Z of a different era as opposed to people who dont even own any Z's or peeps on other forums. unless as someone mentioned before that they are prob just hating, which just is not the case, well with me i guess...

I think this forum attracts those who either own a 350Z or are very interested in it. If you do a Google search on "350Z forums" this one might be at the top. And people who look for this site probably like the 350Z, so their will be a bias. I would not have ever signed up here if I didn't like the 350Z, why would I if I didn't? I go over to other sites that are just for the 370Z's, and as you might guess, you won't find too many negative comments on their about the car. So the same applies there too.

LOL

The self denial of the HR owners across the world

Plastic surgery can cure the Z34 of the fangs....unless you plan on chopping the Z33 you own it will never be as nimble as a Z34 apples to apples

Handling is much more difficult to get right vs mere cosmetics...other than the fangs the new Z looks more aggressive...especially in person

test drove automatic 370z last week, seriously if i have the money i would buy it and start modding from scratch, the new style has major potential personally, i love the rear of the 370z the most. here's some pictures.

+1 in the future the 350z will always be a classic. the 370 will not.

The rear of the 370z is 100x sexier than the 350z..really shows in ppw. Love the way they intergrated the signals into the tail lights so much cleaner than the 350z signals which I thought seem out of place at the bottom of the bumper.

Front end of the 350z > 370z

Rear end of the 350z < 370z.

The 370z sucks and is ugly, the 370Z has a bass fish mouth, the 350Z is ugly and slow, the front smiles, that irritates me. all Z's I hate. I hate this forum. I hate the color of the background of this forum. 350Z side mirror >= 370Z side mirror. 300ZX front < 280ZX front < 370Z front < 350Z front. I hate my own posts. They suck. My posts < the first post. I hate too.
