Nissan 370Z Forum  

Does anyone else find the Z not very photogenic?

I agree with you. Looks much better in person than photo. Most members' photos are photoshopped or altered by some fancy phone app/lens.

Lenses dont alter anything but actually capture a good picture

I kinda agree with you. The Z34's belt line is too high so it looks like stodgy. Either lower it or get nicer wheels. And you got to take pictures of it at certain angles. But "look" at it this way, some girls aren't that photogenic but are hot in person, and other girls are vice versa. Of course the ideal ones are the ones who are both photogenic and hot in person.

Off the top of my head, the cars I find photogenic are: FD3S, NSX, 991, Lambo Huracan. They're both photogenic and hot in person.

This is just me ok. The art and science of photography is clearly missed and there are just too many who miss the point of good photography. In some aspect, a photographer failed to evoke an emotion or show the real deal when someone looks at a photograph and says it is much better in person. LOL on the "lenses alter" comment.

You have enough brake caliper clearance for 16" rotors.

There are certain angles that she's not very flattering from, but they're few and far between.

Unless you're looking at mine. ******* dirty whore. Hasn't bathed in over a month.

And she's got a couple of dents. Jerks.

You think the Z is unphotogentic? Try getting a good pic of the meat magnet, I mean gtr.
