I actually like the vampire's fang look. The headlight design is cool as well. A nice refresh for the Z IMHO

It's a total redesign. Which I think is good, they're trying new things which is better than being boring and building on the same thing over and over.

From the photo the new 370Z seems a bit more refined than the 350Z. That means I can’t tell my story anymore that was more appropriate for my old 2004 G35 coupe and the Z:

There was once a party given for all new cars. The 350Z came in like a cheerleader shouting, “Hey everybody, look at me!” A short time later a G35 coupe came in quietly through a side door. In a few minutes everyone turned around and said, “Who IS that?”

3100 lbs and 350 hp? Should be a rocket.

Wonder if it'll get the 7 speed auto.

How the GT-R is now the price/performance king in the upper class, the new 370Z might do the same thing in the lower class.

200lbs lighter, more power AND a better interior?

Nearly 6 years in, what cars are faster than the Z in every way and carry lower MSRP (base vs base)?

Which of those cars were out in the first 4 years the Z was out? (up to 2006)

It seems you missed what I was trying to say. What I am saying is the new 370Z might kill cars costing more, maybe twice as much, Cayman S, Vette, Z4 M, etc, similar to how the GT-R is killing anything costing as much and twice as much.. Also straight line speed is not everything.

When you Nissan guys come in here, don't be so knee-jerk. Its like yall LOOK for an argument.
