growing on me but am i the only one who thinks 332hp is fu*king weak? bump the power up at least 350 or offer a touring tt model with some low boost and make it 370hp i do think that it will be like the g37 very nice in the pictures but amazing in person i hope its not like the g in the aspect of speed the g37 has more hp and more weight and slower than the g35, not cool at all

I'm with you here on the hardtop convert.

By the way, does anyone know if there are any rear bumper and/or diffuser kits for the 350Z that looks like what the 370Z have? I really like the idea of wrapping the exausts like what they did with the 370Z.

Won't be fun to install an aftermarket front strut brace either.

It looks good but I'm going to wait another 3 yrs. Maybe they'll change design on that headlights.

The more pictures I see, the more I wonder what the design team was thinking. It looks like they had a set of goals and realized along the way that some of the changes they wanted would not exactly work as planned or had unexpected consequences, so they compromised. The result is a half-baked mongrel.

The interior of the back looks ridiculous and extremely cheap compared to the more finished appearance up front. But I shouldn't be surprised as the exterior has the same confused character. Look at if from one angle and car looks pretty good. Look at if from another and it looks dorky as hell.

This is my main gripe with the car. It's not clean. It's not consistent. It goes in several directions at once.

Glad they have professional designers working for Nissan and not some from this forum. Who knows what the car would have come out like if they did.

I hear you but given what Nissan delivered...it makes you wonder just how "professional" they actually are.

It's never the designers or the engineers.. For better or worse, IMO It's always the marketing folks who step in and put (force) their mark on things.

side view is good...
front and back can be fix with an aftermarket body kit
headlights can be fix with overlays and blacking it out
tailights will do...

car would look sick in black after all said and done
