this is the local section though I'm sure not everyone checks the 370z section.

I am happy it's ugly.

+1 not everyone does, thus the reason why it's in the local section.

I'm still not a fan of the 370Z.

The front looks db9'ish, at least from a distance in the video. And the back from the side view looks very porsche'ish. I still prefer the 350z with a kit.

Headlights and taillights looks like boomerangs, the interior is nice but that steering = fail. Overall, not really an improvement over the current Z when factoring in pricing cost. Those 19" wheels looks like they're optional too (since this Z has BBK) but they look awesome as far as stock wheels goes.

Despite the ugly front bumper, headlights & taillights, I actually like it

I dunno, I like it. Cosmetically, there's certainly some things that the current Z has that I prefer, and there's a few things about the 370 that I prefer. All-in-all, I think it's a push. I like it, but not enough to get rid of my current car. But we'll see what the car looks like in person soon enough and what Nismo does with it. I'll reserve final judgement until then.

Believe it or not, I really didn't care much for the 350z concept/pre-release model, and now I'm on my 3rd one (and the current one being a car that I didn't care much for when I first saw photos of it either).

Either way, I think it would be at least 3 years before they fully roll out a new Nismo Z. I'm sure people would try to make an "s-tune" type deal but for them to release a car like your Nismo would take time And if you trade your Nismo Z for a regular 370z I'd be the first to knock you out with a beer bottle!

Yeah, it's almost as bad as trading a 2 seater RWD V6 sports car for a 4 cylinder sedan.

i hate how huge the wheel wells are in all the new cars these days. i mean the 370 makes the stock 19's look small, 18's will look rediculous. you'll need 20's just to fill out the wheel wells. i hate 20's and really dislike 19's. why cant they make cars that look great with 18's on them. give it another couple of years and 24's will start coming standard on civic's...

... end rant

HOLY CRAAAAP

Looks like someone photoshopped and used "smudge or liquify" to design the headlight and taillight surround.

Also, is it me, or does the steering wheel look like it has the diamater of a bus steering wheel ?

Yeah, I'm not a fan of that at all. I was happy to see that it's ugly too.
