While most automotive media scramble to gather the latest spy shots or renderings of the forthcoming 2009 Nissan 370Z, Japanese car magazine “Best Car” went a step ahead, actually a few steps ahead and created a 1:1 scale replica of the model based on the current 350Z.

Built by Mad House in Shizuoka prefecture, Japan, the guys at Mad House naturally employed the leaked teaser shots of the model as a base for the replica’s appearance which was made using fiberglass, especially the front and rear of the car. Some of you may be guessing how they created the headlights from scratch. Well, they utilised the most common and basic technique of all, custom-made stickers. Bet you didn’t think of that huh?

it'll look like a z34 but wouldn't all the measurements be off?

Thats awsome. Not more the concept as I feel for how awsome the dudes who did this are. Kudos to those dudes, more like work of ART.
