I'm sorry but that doesn't look right IMHO. That paint accentuates certain lines WAY to much. Yuck, I love the way the 240 looks but they fell short on the 370. Could have really looked good too, what a shame.

I think they completed their goal very well. Hope to see this at ZDAYZ in person. I am a big fan of what they have done and all the racing lineage.

9/10 on this board likely don't even know why this is special, or what "BRE" is. I assume this pic was taken recently at the Road Atlanta BRE event?

Didn't someone just post a thread with a photo-shoped 370z with the martini theme? Bet he'll love this

Loved the original, and love the tribute, but they should have removed the headlights and cleaned up the paint lines in front.

Looks like a regular Nismo Z with a silly color scheme.
