Hmm, a heck of a lot of people must prefer "retarded" over "clean" then.

370z looks like a retarded toad giving birth. but na seriously, ill glady take both a 300zx and used 350z instead of a 370. I must say the technology in the 370z is to drool for, but I just cant get over the looks, nissan did way too much.
it probably needs to grow on me...weird thing is when the 350z first came out i was instantly in love! just dont feel the same for the 370, i actuallly feel the opposite

Funny, we are like opposites. Except I actually liked the 350Z when it came out. I looked passed some of the few awkward forms on the car because I wanted so desperately any "Z". The 370Z looks great to me from the get go because it brings back design cues from the original 240Z, which I owned two of and was a huge fan.

Regardless, if the majority of people think the 370Z looks great and is an improvement that is good for Nissan.

To me, the 370Z's face just keeps reminding me of the scream mask.

It's weird because when I see comparison pics of the 370z and the 350z right next to each other, I must admit that the 350z does look dated. However, when I walk outside and see my 07 SMB 350z, the only thought that runs through my head is.."damn that's gorgeous." haha I'm not hating on the 370z and may even trade up for one a couple years down the line but I have absolutely no regrets not waiting for the 370z.

the front looks like a tvr tuscan and the rear looks like a chrystler crossfire. can't decide if that's a good combo but i'm sure it'll grow on me.

Maybe its just me but the new 370 is reminds me of the Toyota Supra TT minus the stupid wing. I loved both the Supra TT and 300Z TT and wanted one of them bad but couldnt afford one as I was a colege student at the time. When the 350Z came out I didnt really like it but grew on me and when the Anniversary edition came out in Ultra Yellow with the new 18" wheels, I had to have it and bought one. I am in love with the new 370. I got to have one but I am waiting until forced induction kits are available.

Yea i love the 240Z, and the 370 does indeed look more aligned to it, so i get your viewpoint. Where is this majority you speak of that like the 370Z though? lol. From what ive gathered, peeps either love it or hate it, dont see an overwhelming group that loves it...Well as for me am in between, do you like that hideous blue though? that just turns my stomach. The other colors i can live with. Who knows I may upgrade in year or two

Gotta leave this forum to get a true sense of how the general public likes it.

Someone should make a 370Z-esque hood for the 350Z. I like the hood on the 370 but not much else about the exterior.

I don't like it... Without the headlights and fangs the 370Z looks too happy and unaggressive, like the 350Z. The car in the picture above looks like a dog that pissed in his owner's home and is trying to appease him, ears back, mouth gaping open... If I'd never seen the 370Z and they released this version above I'd like it (it's the same car minus a couple of details) but having seen what Nissan actually released your chop looks terrible compared to it. I like the direction Nissan/Infiniti is going with their cars. Nissan has really become a trendsetter as far as the designs of some of their vehicles and everything flows really well on the 370Z. And like someone else said, this 350Z site isn't representative of how the majority of people feel about the Z. The reviews have been overwhelmingly positive and this is the only Nissan car site that has people saying negative things about the car (not a coincidence by the way since this is a 350Z forum)...
