My contact at NNA let me in on a suprise today NEXT GEN Z! :)
Sooo.. I had an interesting day today. My contact at NNA (Nissan North America) allowed me to have a sneak peak at a working / running design concept for the next 350Z. After a spirited drive on some back roads, I was allowed to take a few snapshots. ... Mind you the car is 'wearing' some coverings to disquise its shape (Think about every spyshot you've ever seen). Its a pretty radical change in the overall shape of the car.. no retro styling. Its def different. As far as my impressions on the drive.. it was great. neutral handling and good power.
I found it strange that the car was wearing nissan and 350z badging. I figured that they would not have that on there.
Here are a few pic's that my buddy will 'allow' me to post.
EDIT: I have more shots.. just need to upload them

That thing was kickin' Mike. Thanks for inviting me up there with you to check it out. I don't know about you, but I think it's starting to take on a little of the skyline GT-R look there on the back end. They did a good job of hiding the panels though, and it was almost impossible to tell what it really looked like. Did you notice much body roll on the drive? That undercarriage was filthy, but MAN did that sucker move.

OK guys you got me... I know .. cats out of the bag.... this is my new beeter... for when I dont feel like driving my Z or G or X5 or porsche or m3 with my brothers, they're twins.
LOL. Well.. I thought this would be a funny way to introduce my 'new' beater 
figured the photoshoppers of the boards would be all over this!
ha! .. oh well.. here are the rest of the shots
as you can see.. I could not resist finding a new home for my old 350z badges
This side has HUBCAPS! yea! ...I'm thinking about getting some spinner hubcaps
as you can see.. the paint is peeling off the hood/roof/trunk
the real motor.. all 1.6 liters of pure lack of power!
the money shot... of course it needs a bra.. would not want to get rock chips!
hehehe... notice the cop car in the background? hehehe
