The new Z, different strokes for different folks, and I just can't bring myself to liking it, even a bit. It seems like Nissan was in a rush to bring a new product to the table to keep up with competition and just half-@$$ed the whole thing.



I will give Carlos credit on reviving the GTR.
For me:

Supra = overstyled kit car looking with a ripped off BMW underbelly and inside.

Z = understyled boring fat retro with a ripped off Nissan underbelly and inside.

Unfortunately, both cars got here that way because of money woes. So they are what they are. Better than nothing for sure, but far from what could have been if economic times were different. It is what it is.

I'll stick with my 370Z.
