I don't mind the car as a whole, but what's with the giant wart-like door handles. They look like flaps made to slow the car down.
I'm not a fan of the painted rear diffuser either. The Z has always looked like it's had a large rear to start with, and this just adds mass to the look.
Not a fan of the "teeth" in the front, either.
So I guess, style-wise, I like the profile and overall shape, just not a fan of some of the detail elements they've used.

I agree with you. the headlights, taillights, door handles look bad but I like the bumpers and spoiler.

Yup, I think that's what everyone is saying...the car has a nice profile, but the headlights, tail lights, door handles, and other little things ruin it. Not to mention the rear looks like a Chrysler Crossfire. What was Nissan thinking?

I like it! Maybe a bit bias also. LOL 3.7l 332hp (underrated I'm sure) RWD and lost 4" in length, 400lbs and widen 2". It will prove itself on the road course for sure!!!

I don't like the profile shot. Looks like it's too tall over the passenger compartment and definately in the back. Like the hp numbers though. When is nissan going to turbo this car from the factory already? Kinda like Mazda not offering a turbo RX-8.

Why turbo it when it's making 330hp N/A? Also if they turbo it, it would be in the GTR class of HP and cost less. Nissan would lose GTR sales.

Looks too much like the 350Z....but I guess they meant to do that? Anyways, not bad. Probably going to be too expensive.

Don't know how $30k is expensive for a RWD 3.7l Sports coupe.

I heard base prices might be close to $40k than $30k...

So after looking at the 370Z for sure that the little things on the exterior make it blah..... The rear tail lights are ok with the teeth.... But those teeth on the front headlights gotta go..... Makes it look like the car is going in reverse...... The bumpers need changing..... Thank god for body kits...... The rear is very eclipse like.... Huge and Ugly.... TOOO much junk in the trunk......
I did a little chop... cut the door handels a little bit, Changed the headlight and the front bumper.... Thoughts?

MUCH better. My money is on Nissan redesigning these little bits. Perhaps the headlights will look more like the GT-R.
