Oh wow, that looks much better and more like a Skyline GT-R than the previous one, which to me looked like nothing more than a glorified Z with a body kit.

That color looks fantastic! Looks like a better version of our now defunct LeMans blue, which I always liked. Thing is, dark blue just doesn't go well with the carbon gray accents. Considering they really can't do anything about the body accents, there's no helping it, but I think the car would look ten times better with silver wheels instead of gunmetal ones.
My pop's Z06 is Daytona Sunset Orange, which is much darker than my Atomic Orange. I've got competition gray wheels, because mine is a bright, obnoxious color. He's got polished silver wheels because competition gray wouldn't look good with the darker orange.
This GT-R doesn't look as brilliant as it could... Of course, the GT-R isn't necessarily a very good looking car, anyway. Cool, yes. Good looking is a stretch. None of Nissan's new cars are good looking, IMO. The Z included.

That's a pretty brilliant shade of blue... It reflects really nicely. I'll keep my body style opinions to myself.

yeah, that still is a pre-produce model cause I don't think it will have that much gray on the front...but idk.
yeah six, is your color a pearl? pearls always look so nice.
yeah six I might be partial, but the only Nissan's I don't like style or usability, is the versa, sentra, and like all the trucks and SUV's. cause the trucks are still the same as they where when the new model came out in 05-06.

Come now, you must admit the 350Z looks eleven times better than the 370Z. The latter is a greusomely mutated variant of the former. I was watching my brother play the demo version of the new Need for Speed game the other night. It's called "Hot Pursuit" and it's supposed to be a throwback to the originals. It isn't. It's still incredibly unrealistic, with a focus on points via collisions. It's over-glamorous demolition derby. Anyways, there's a voice that tells you about each car. The 370Z's description was: "Bla bla bla, front engine rear wheel drive is the way a sports car should be (which I agree with), bla bla bla... And now, it's got boomerang tail lights." HUGE emphasis on the boomerang tail lights, like it's the new Z's most wonderful feature. Seriously, I gagged. There's nothing good about boomerang tail lights! The 350Z's "blade" style tails were much better, as were the headlights which didn't look like the eyes of a retarded alien. I will drool if Nissan's next Z is reminiscent of the Z32, with a flat a** and long, rectangular tail lights. I know I sound like a broken record, but the Z32 is pure SEX! It's one of the best looking cars ever made. Jeremy Clarkson refers to it as a "pornographer's car." Nissan's design has gone waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay in an entirely different direction. The same direction that Mazda's gone. Make cars look as weird as you can, and maybe people will think it's cool.

Such is the reason why I'm so excited over Lotus's new face. They've got the right idea, IMO.

Not gonna lie....
I like the 370.... It may look like a hedgehog, but it grew on me
It shy's away from the traditional sleek aero look for a more bulky muscular look
I think it looks more aggressive and imposing compared to the 350's calmer, sleek look
Also, that blue is the most beautiful thing since copperhead

yeah, like I was getting at I see, touch, and drive Nissan's all day long. so I like them all other the rusted out old 93 quest vans...>.> rotted brakes lines ******** for the most part at the dealer I don't see cars older then 2002. I have only once seen a white 1998 240sx that a dude came in for service...but it was a auto.
yeah, all I can say the 370z is different, was said it took style cues from the 240z...but all I see from that is the shape of the rear side window.

All Z's take style cues from the 240 (they all loosely have the same profile silhouette) ... but it's like the 370 went and got botox IMHO (my opinions shouldn't matter in this case... it's all subjective... to each his own).

All but one. The Z32 didn't take styling cues from any of the previous Zs. It was a renaizzance. And it was good. smile
