The first thing my coworker said when he saw these photos of the 370Z is that it looks way more expensive than the 350Z. I think they says a lot. It just looks more refined and upmarket. I like the 370Z because it looks so aggressive from the factory. No add on really needed.

lol..pretty funny how people are calling the 370z ugly as it still retains the current shape of the 350z..and would say that they are calling their car ugly as well...these haters most probable that they will end up buying the 370z. As for the rear end of the 370z it looks 100 times better because the rear signals are intergrated into the tail lights..in my opnion the 350z rear is ugly as I can't stand signals at the bottom of the bumper. There was never an aftermarket product to get rid of those nasty rear signals.

Ahh. This is much better. Hopefully Nissan will change the 2010 or 2011 models to get rid of the wings. (Sorry guys, I'm extremely new to photoshop.)

Some cars look WAY better in real life and I think the 370Z will be one of those cars. The 370Z definitely has a more aggressive presence stance than the stock 350Z (which arguably looks bland in many pictures).

I'm not sure what I think about the A-pillar placement in the 370Z - it almost looks like the hood is a little bit too long. I think because it's a shorter car than the 350Z it doesn't look quite as balanced, but the rest of the car looks great! Those wheel flares are huge and I think the 370Z is going to have much more of a Porsche look from the rear. The wheel offsets may just be the angle of picture being taken - if not, then that's something that should be corrected because the wheels need to appear as though they fill up all that space!

Oh, and for those of you that aren't sure about the headlights and tailights, go check out a new Maxima and see how detailed the lights are - then (if you can) see how awesome they look at night!

Dont know if this has been asked. But do the holes on the inner side of the headlights have led lighting in them like the audi's? If not, then I see cincity filling those holes with leds in no time...

I think the reason the front looks long in some photos it the effect of the perspective taken in the photos.

I said that before. I bet you anything the headlights and tail lights on the 370Z look downright mean at night. At first I did not like them now I like them a lot.

Damn.... someone beat me to it...

This is probably the only change I would make to the car... and maybe Bat can make these overlays as soon as the car comes out so we can see...

It was done earlier. I actually like the boomerang lights much more than what is in the photoshop. Didn't like them at first, now I do. Adds a lot of character.

that first pic was close-up with a wide angle lens. It's distorted. The others appear to be farther away and/or a different lens and do not look as distorted.

It would have been nice to see a straight-on profile shot in production paint.

OK, you guys. The haters. I am having a difficult time understanding your logic. The 370Z is such a ugly car what does that make the 350Z? See any similarities? And then you guys go on and say it looks like the Crossfire. What does the 370Z look more like? The 350Z or the Crossfire? What on Earth are you guys smoking.

I think the only similarity between 370z and the crossfire is that the roofline of the car has a flush line into the ***. I personally like the 350z better the way that it dips down and then levels out towards the end of the hatch.

That line back to the *** and the distorted lights are the only thing I don't like. Everything else is pure sex.

Not bad at all. Until I see her on the road dressed up I can truly make a decision on how I feel.

The car is not a 350Z yet it closely resembles a 350Z, so what the hell is it?

The car has lines that bring back the 240Z when viewed at certain angles but it's not a 240Z, so what the hell is it?

The car looks pretty good from some angles but fat from the side and rear and like a catfish when viewed head on, so what the hell is it?

These are not derogatory statements; they are intended to demonstrate the visual confusion some (actually many) experience when looking at the 370. I think that's the source of a lot of the disappointment in how the car has turned out. I think a lot of people wanted a car that clearly stood on its own (and not simply by looking weird).

This is not about the performance and weight benefits of the 370 over the 350. You can have them on a bare chassis with nothing but a rollbar to protect you. This is about how the 370 looks to a lot of people who were anticipating something brand new...not sorta kinda new.
