i personally think a Z (any Z) should have never been offered as a roadster and even with an automatic trans in the first place, and the two combined just make the car something it was not intended to be. When the original 240z came out it was all about raw performance at the time. Getting an auto roadster Z wouldnt even be considered a sports car anymore, just used by middle aged women to go shopping with . kinda depressing lol but whatever nissan sold the **** out of them so props to them

It looks a lot nice than the 350z roadster. I like the body style, curves of the 350 coupe over the the 370s, but I absolutely hate the look of the 350 roadster.. I always felt like there was no transition between the trunk and roof, just a drastic angle change. That new hump in the 370 changes that. I actually like it better than the 370z coupe, especially since it actually looks good with the top down.

It does look like a blend of a miata(front, from the side) and a spyder(rear). And i guess it does look a little squaty. EIther way, huge improvement over the 350 roadster

I expected Nissan to really try and make it look good after all the flak the old ZRs got. I think it looks slightly better, but its hard for me to even say that. I still dont know how much I like the little fingers of body that go into the heads and tails of the 370.

i wouldn't trade my 350ZR for that even if it was for free. looks like a miata doesn't stand out at all.

They need to close the wheel gap a bit so its not so high up. If they fixed that it would be a nice tiny looking vert.

I think it looks 100x better then the 350z roadster, with that said all roadsters look gay as hell.

I like it with the top up, but the top down doesn't do it for me. Never really fond of convertibles except hardtops like those BMWs.

hey, I never said it was good or bad. It was just an observation. check out the wheels on the first page and youll see what I'm saying
