I think all the press is for two reasons:
1) The new look is a knockout!
This novelty is going to wear off when there are tons of 370z's out there. It will be a big star for '09, and then fade back to just the true believers. They were VERY smart to hold back the convertible. Now once the 370Z gets too common, out comes the convertible. If it is well done (nice to look at), it will generate another six months of buzz, and another round of comparos. It will again be called the best bang for the buck among MB SLK 55AMG's, Boxsters, etc.
2) Bang for the buck is huge!
Once they start depreciating this will be even bigger. Add in tuning options and this will be a hot rodders wet dream.
