| Nissan 370z what do you all think of the new Z? http://jalopnik.com/5084319/2009-nis...sign-dissected
i dont think i like it too much.
1. too curvy
2. front looks like a rattle snake
3. headlights look overengineered
the interior looks better...although it cant get much worse than what it was. a friend of mine has the 350z track edition...i like it better than this new one.

#2 | | Cool enough Administrator | Performance wise, the 270z far outshines the 250z.. I would love to drive one. I think they went a bit over the top with the looks, but that is normal as of late. Everybody is pushing it a bit too far. |

| Not a fan of Asian cars, but I like the 370. Performance-wise it should be a great car, and although I'm not crazy about the looks it looks better than a 350z.

| The 370z looks like a lot of performance for about $31,000.
Appearance wise, I'm still a fan of the pricier Infinity G37, but the Nissan is not ugly by any means. Just a bit confused looking and certainly not as unattractive as what Honda has been marketing for the past few years. |

| Ohmygwsh. It's beautiful. The 350z was my favorite, now the 370 is even sicker. Too bad I don't drive for another 4 years.

| I actually think the 370 looks better than the 350. But either way, for that much money, I'd be going European. 31 + all fees and taxes = probably closer to 40. And that means I'm in used Elise territory. Or really nice BMW territory. |

I love/hate the new technology in their gearbox, now a manual can heel toe for you.... and blip the throttle... Well this has made its way to some high end gearboxes and the fact that it has trickled down to a Nissan is quite impressive
