It's actually rear fog light. It won't make into the US spec production along with the headlight washers.

Here are some interior pictures

They are speculating 338 HP and 270 ft/lbs of tq. Car weight was initially rumored around 3134 lbs but recent document reveals the actual weight of 3240ish.

338 HP
270 ft/lbs of tq
4" shorter than the current 350z and
3240 ish lbs of weight.

what you guys think? yay or nay?

Send a message via AIM to Mr. Wyndham
same torque as the LLT...
and it lost a whole 80 pounds...seems to me losing weight is harder than some make it seem...

Anyways, this thing will anhilate the V6 Camaro, and the SS will anhilate this thing.

I have no idea about the HP. 338 is around what I heard too. But I hope the torque is more...

HoLy MoThEr of angled rear windows batman. that thing is like almost flat. hell it looks like its on a 30degree angle. it seems almost impossible to see any thing from their.

i actully like this car. i might be the only one but the head and tail lights look good they give an agressive look to it. still the last modle 350z were the nicest , but this one has the balls in the family.

Exactly why I'll be getting a 07 or 08 350Z next year. Next to the 280Z it's one of the most beautiful Z's made... As ugly as I personally think the 370Z is, it's going to be competition for the Camaro SS, IF Nissan gave it a nice healthy upgrade in power... And i'm willing to bet that they did.

If the 350Z can pretty much match the performance of a current gen Mustang GT with 306hp & 268 ft/lbs of torque coming out of the VQ... It's going to be running with the SS if it gets a 30-50hp increase and maybe a 30+ increase in ft/lbs of torque...
