I can tell u guys this! That front bumper doesnt look no way near the bug killer of our cars! Its way more flowing in design. Now the bugs will go thru the gigantic mouth and into our radiators and intercoolers!!

I think its pretty good for a first effort in updating the present model. The front looks UGLY and those lights need to be toned down. The lights go way too deep into the body panels, especially the front. I just cannot get over the silly shark mouth, looks so stupid on this car.

I went to my local dealership a week ago to check out a GT-R they had there and asked them about how much the 370Z would be, he said that they hear it is suppose to be only a couple grand more than the current Z base model. He will give me info as soon as he gets it though. And yes, the GT-R was bigger than I expected it to be. I wish I could've taken it for a test drive

The front end of the 370 looks like a whale shark

Car is absolutely amazing . I think the background and camera angle has a lot to do with many people not liking the car. This car officially out dates the 350Z, that's for sure.

Judging from everybody's responses a big decision factor will be the price;

if they can manage to keep the 370z within reasonable price range somewhere in the <35k range for GT then it will be a seller for sure.

What sold me were the paddle shifters/ shorter/lighter/more powerful
Slap some aftermarket suspension on her and we are golden, seriously with bolts on will give some of the more expensive cars a run for their money

I think it looks good for the most part. I think it will look better in person..certain cars do that..for instance the maxima looks alot better in person..the new EVO i think looks terrible in pics..especially from the side profile..looks like a box..but the few i've seen in person..i'm like wow..it looks good. i think the Z will be the same way..i mean we saw the test mule and the videos of it driving around and people liked it..was camoued up just a little but the overall shape is the exact same.I think when you see it driving around it will grow on you.i think this car looks best in black cause it hides the sharp lines and makes it look more flowing.i think that's why people liked the german mule the best.Black will be the top seller i'm guessing 4 this model just because of that.main gripe is i wish they either went with a more rounded look overall like the current Z or a sharper look overall..not a mix of the 2 for instance the front is pointy and the roof has gtr pointy edges but the rear is still round..wish they made the rear more edgy like the rest of the car..I think they made the flat part on the fenders a little to big..was fine on the z33 but a little too pronounced on this one.But i think it will look hot with a drop and 20's..a drop and nice wide wheels will make this car look sick...you all will see. overall I think it is a good update that people will grow to like. #1.more hp with it being lighter. 2. sick interior..3. true dual exhaust.. 4. 7-speed auto with paddles for auto fans

well, this car will look sooo much different in person.
just take a 135i for instance. it doesnt look AMAZING on paper or the internet, but today on my way to school i saw a black one with a Chick driving it and the stance of the things along with the fender flares made it look AMAZING, totally different from the 2D version, same thing with the GTR, same thing with the Z34. the pictures just dont do it justice.

from behind it'll look like a widebody kit in real life. from the side it'll look very small and ready to go at a moments notice and from the front in your rearview mirrior you'll just want to get outta the way

I want to like it, but I cant. It always looks ugly to me.

It sure does....but it seems a bit lower and wider than what we've seen in the photos, and it has a serious drop. It's more like a "concept" version of the real thing....a bit of distorted reality......but maybe that's way it will appear when you see the car in person.
