The G35 doesn't imply a body code. G35 implies the engine being used. Unless they use a different engine on the G35, I don't see it changing. (kind of like the 300ZX's, even though they kept the same name for two generations, the cars were very different)

Thanks for the pics TAZ.

I changed my mind on the Z, looks like on the front it is smiling or sticking its tounge out from the front. I just may go for the G35 or new Supra in 07.

Chrome accents are little much, but I do like that they added leather to the door panel and steering wheel controls. The center console would be an easy conversion. I would swith it with the 04 console and the *****. That front needs to be kept like 04.

LOOK AT IT THOUGH, LOOKS LIKE IT IS SMILING OR STICKING ITS TOUNGE OUT!
(reminds of the old neons--they did look like they said HI! )

Nice to finally see some pics. Can't wait to see it in person, hopefully soon.

The headlights will take some getting use to. The LED's are ok. The interior is egh different but not really anything I would say is better of worse looking than now. I actually don't like a few things about the current interior and this new one is not swaying me either way.

As long as the current '03-'05 V3 rear wing and The Axis Hiro's still fit on it, I don't care about all of these minor changes:-P

Better still be availalbe in red or at least silver.

I'm guessing prices will be about the same as the 05's?

It does look like a bug from the front now. Looks like your looking at an insect in a way. They should of went with something aggressive (IMO).

Its funny that the 350Z is the best thing they have did for a long time. You would think they would make changes the best they could considering how popular its became, and how the 350Z has help so much to put Nissan USA back onto the map. Oh well it's not that bad, but not good either (IMO). It seems like they just took a step backwards, when they could of easily went forward. Im also disapointed they have not changed the front and rear bumpers to a better more aggressive styling (the nismo look) like most car companys do when they have a hot car on their hands.

I like it, I just wish the shut lines were different around the rear(looks a tad busy). I'm not crazy about the chrome on the rims, hopefully there will be other rim designs to choose from....

I think owners with a black 06' Z should black out the lenses for the headlights
