It looks so gorgeous and cute at the same time, Japanese people are a genious when it comes to cars :D Industrialization sure does pay off
 
I'm not too big on the shape of the greenhouse and the way it meets with the rest of the body at the rear, but it's looking good other than that.

That's straight up old Z-car badassery. If it works, we shall see when the whole is revealed, bu so far I think it's a good idea. It's a little fat to pull off any 240Z emulation so far...
 
Good news:

Yeah.
 
I like the rear, because it looks good and it looks like they updated the car. But the front looks like an ugly version of the 350Z. Hopefully those headlights (and the fangs) aren't as ugly on the final model.

Just because it has key features from epic cars of years past does not mean that the same look works well on a new car. I'm with HACKr on the way the back looks kinda awkward. That could easily just be the angle though.
 
i like it. in fact i think i like it better than the 350z; i'll be the first and maybe only one to say. but i agree that the spoiler looks silly. i dont "hate" it, but its not an option i'd check. (here's to hoping the spoiler isnt on all models.) and the rear end looks the business! i love it. the front isnt quite as menacing or whatever it is going for but i still like it. the "teeth" arent as dumb as i'd though they would look.

Well I do like the shape of the 370Z, but they need to get rid of that ugly front and reshape that rear window/wheel arches. It just doesn't look right in that picture.... :odd:
 
From the rear view I can see some Datsun Z styling as well, but it's not enough, and so on the whole I think it's pretty damn ugly.
 
Looks more compact than the 350z and also more purposeful. The 350z always looked a little heavy or inflated in my eyes and this appears to be much leaner.
 
If they'd gone for rounder headlights instead of rectangles with spikes at the bottom, it might look better, however, I guess there needs to be some sort of family semblance.
 
Profile looks good!

As a 240Z owner, I like this much better than the 350Z. I'd like to see that C-Pillar with a smoother arc like the 240. It looks like they moved the whole cabin back a bit from the 350z. I like that. They gotta loose those underbite fangs or catfish whiskers. I want mine in chartruse with black BRE stripes.

Not sure on the interior...




That interior = awesome. Not sure about the area around the gear stick, but otherwise it's great. I love the side air-vents.

I don't really like the c-pillar on the exterior, though. The whole flat-back fast-back shape doesn't do anything for me. I think they should've broken up that line a little bit.
 
That profile shot does look really good. But still, I'm kinda on the fence with it. It looks great from some angles, but goofy from others.

The interior isn't bad. It's not a lost cause, at least. The gear lever is a little strange and I don't really like the area around the nav screen, but I would order mine without that so that doesn't matter that much.
 
There is still way too much I don't like about it, especially the interior which looks stupidly bulbous.
 
I still dislike those headlights Nissan is putting on their cars now, but other then that I really see a lot of Z car inspired design in it. I liked the renderings better though.
 
I do like the elongated hood and classic greenhouse from the side. It just doesn't seem to work too well from other angles, and that could easily be something just personal, and maybe it'll look great in final form.

I agree on the headlights. I'm not understanding why they have the little tails. They'd probably look a little better with something more similar to the GT-R instead of trying to show the styling similarities between the cars but still trying to keep the GT-R special, which I think is possibly what they are doing.
