I like it, lots of hate for new cars as usual, but it will sell and that is all that matters

it has a lot more of the original 240Z look to it and that's a good thing. but one thing concerns me.

"Meanwhile, Nissan officials say they still are interested in a more entry-level, small, front-wheel-drive sports car for the brand, but not immediately. The automaker does not want to take the spotlight away from the launch of the new Z and is dealing with a full portfolio right now"

So that means they are shelving both the New Small FWD sports car and a RWD sports car? I am waiting a return of the "pulsar" badge. perhaps a shortened 2 door Spec-v wearing the NX2500 name?

new cars always look weird when you first see them. dont worry, it'll grow on you.

I love the rear quarter section, so sexy.

the rear end is not bad, a little rounded off. tails are a little too max. but Nissan seems to be making all their new cars fit the "line-up"

front bumper/hood is not bad

front quarter is where it gets iffy. just awkward looking, but it'll grow.
