Damn it looks really good.......Inside out.....close to perfect

!

Couch · 10-29-2008, 09:11 AM

I'm still bothered by the headlights and taillights. I do like the interior though.

BMWJZ4 · 10-29-2008, 09:16 AM

don't like the roofline

Crimson92 · 10-29-2008, 10:44 AM

like i said in the other thread, perfect except heads and tails

Scorpion · 10-29-2008, 10:51 AM

Head lights don't seem tha bad to me lol. Like the interior though. But I like the 350z better though

LI E90 · 10-29-2008, 11:11 AM

interior is worlds better than the 350Z and dare I say the E9x!

love the roof line harks back to the 240 of the early 70's

going to be a nice package

What's that 'Starship Enterprise' thing going on in the centre of the dash. There's enough buttons there to launch a nuclear strike. Also why have a round guage with a digital clock in the centre, put a proper clock there. Other wise I like the overall look of the thing, though it's still no looker like the Audi TT is.

josephr25 · 10-29-2008, 11:49 AM

The interior is way better than the current one. However, it looks like the dash plastic has migrated to the doors. The current one's dash had cheap plastic, and the doors' were significantly better-looking and softer.

The navigation looks out of place for this kind of car. But I've liked Nissan's navigation in general.

I'm not sold on the styling. I wasn't even sold on the old styling when I got mine (which makes it easier for me to enjoy my current car). I don't like Nissan's design direction, which takes "powerful" looks over streamlined looks.

What I like:

- Front bumper
- Headlights
- Wide arches
- Interior!

What I dont like:

- Shorter dimensions i.e short rear
- the gradient of the roofline is much more steep than the smooth 350z roofline
- area surrounding rear license plate looks droopy

Overall, I like it but it loses the smooth look the 350z had for a more aggressive look. I think it'll look better in real-life. I hope it performs! That'll make the shorter look a little more acceptable.

Here's some pics from upcoming Need For Speed game:

Speedtrap · 10-29-2008, 12:30 PM

I love the interior - delightfully cosy

!Xoible · 10-29-2008, 12:34 PM

HUGE steering wheel looks ridiculous, a thicker smaller one will be a good mod.

also, the ebrake handle is still from old Z

nissan loves to throw in cheap shits here and there. otherwise i guess it'll not be a nissan

I'd agree with you on everything, except I don't really mind the roofline. For some reason I like how it ties it with the GTR. I'd also change the front bumper a little, like I'd black out the fangs and middle section. I don't like how they look. I'd also black out the rear diffuser.

hks786 · 10-29-2008, 02:55 PM

+1 ^^^

I dunno what was up earlier but now this thing looks so much better than when I first looked at pics!!

MJC///M3 · 10-29-2008, 03:18 PM

Deda · 10-29-2008, 05:53 PM

I can't stand those door handles. My friend is the only person I know to get rid of them; he had them sanded and painted to match. Looked soooo much better.

Spec 1 · 10-29-2008, 07:02 PM

I'm surprised many of you don't like the roofline. That's probably my favorite part - it reminds me of the original Datsun Z's.

It's cuz most of the kids here weren't even born when the Datsun Z's were hot. LOL. I guess I'm showing my age a bit too.
