To each his or her own in this case. IMO it looks so, so. I would not buy one but would not feel bad driving it in the same respect.

Love it. The interior is freakin' sweet. This may be the one car to sway me away from the camaro.

Did you guys read about that Rev-Matching Manual??

It eliminates the need for heel-toe shifts on the track

worlds first

Yes . 332 HP and world's first rev matching 6 speed gear box confirmed. It'll be very interesting using that transmission. The transmission rev matches to perfect RPM every time you down shift.

More info: http://www.the370z.com/nissan-370z-p...1-11-08-a.html

These pictures were taken right outside the 370Z plant Check them out



Yesterday two pictures from a Japanese blog






You can see the "Highly Speculated" blue in the picture. It does looks like Corvette "Jetstream Blue"

I love this car. I was hoping it would be assembled in North America. :flag2:

It will be assembled in Opamma, Japan.

If it drives anything like the 350Z, hopefully better, you bet your ass it will!

I just hope there are some newer 08 350Z's out there in like 4-6 months that I can jump on...

Thats what you get when you park a GTR and a porshe in the same garage, looks great, the headlights are iffy, but the tail is very VERY nice, imagine what that car can look like with a veilside bodykit

Did you really? How did you like it? I'm curious to know just cause I'm planning on getting one around spring. If you have, and if you can time shoot me a PM with your impressions of it, I'd really appreciate it. And any tips with owning it. Thanks!
