m4xwellmurd3r Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 Whoa. that looks way better than the 350z. the rear end reminds me of the old 240-280z's now the roofline and that rear quarter window, along with the big flares. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete84 Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 Well, hopefully the redsign succesfully seperates the Z and G37 coupe. The G37 can be the grand tourer, and the Z the sport And I think it is lookin good too, the design seems to be much more tight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m4xwellmurd3r Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 that yellow one actually isn't the real one. That one looks more like a concept rendering that got barfed on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Challenger Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 Yellow one actually looks like the g35 with different badging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OlderThanMe Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 I think Nissan has been doing the right thing with retro-izing the 350Z. First the hood bulge and now the nice quarter windows... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
getoffmyinternet Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 Yes note how the bulge in the hood intersecting with the bumper doesn't make sense. Also, the doorhandles are different. And those awful fangs in the grill. The headlights are totally different. The quarter window is basically upside down. The wheel scoop is added... There's actually very little about these two cars that is the same. I sure hope the gray one is the real one. I did enjoy how barf comes out his nose though.

buZy Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Reguardless of the new design....the weight needs to come back down. This is what was thoughly developed in the original Z. Unfortunatly building a OEM lightweight Z, well those days are over now. Add all the power you want but it will never ever replace the movement response of a lightweight chassis. Period. Someone needs to light up Nissan marketing and tell them take a chance. The 350 and 370 not much change. Just another Tylenol car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jerryb Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 I would seriously consider buying the silver Z in the link..."looks" fast and those headlights seem right.... The "yellow" Z looks fat and ugly....I trust NISSAN doesnt get a brain fart! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

e_racer1999 Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 who replaced the headlights with hockey sticks?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete84 Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 I think the front end bumper / splitter looks alot like the early 240/260 verticle bumpers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m4xwellmurd3r Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 I hope the silver one is the actual model you can see a lot of differences between it and the orange car. the most noticable ones are the longer headlights in the silver, and at how the window beam frame thing of the windscreen (not sure of the actual name is of that beam) look how they joint in the silver compared to the orange. same with angle of the flares, the rear quarter window, and the mirrors. that silver version looks a LOT more like an updated Z car than that crappy orange one haha. comparing the 2, the orange looks like a 350z with mocked up body panels. the silver one looks sleek and agressive. the orange looks like it's retarded inbred cousin.

wingnutthehutt Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 I will reserve judgement until there are more angles as far as the REAL 370 goes. But I have to agree, that "rendering" looks lik absolute garbage. It looks like the bastard child of a Maserati and an Altima. Hope no one here drew it.

Nigel Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Unfortunatly building a OEM lightweight Z, well those days are over now. Add all the power you want but it will never ever replace the movement response of a lightweight chassis. Period. Actually, according to Road & Track, the new 370Z will be 200lbs lighter (3010lbs total) and 6.5" shorter. That a significant jump in the right direction.

cygnusx1 Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 I'll take slightly heavier and pretty over slightly lighter and ugly any day, but that's just my opinion. The silver one is hot, the rest are fugly. I brightened up the leaked photo of the silver one: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The silver one is hot, the rest are fugly. I brightened up the leaked photo of the silver one: The silver car and the one below look like the same car to me. Just different lighting and angle (ok, so there are some minor differences, but overall, they're very close). How about when the choice is heavy and ugly vs light and ugly?
