I was excited to see how much it is all over Gran Turismo 5... The instruction booklet has two pictures of it, and the Dealership icon ( out of the 1,000s of cars in the game ) is the front end and headlight of our 370z .....

Thats some cool stuff imo

Im fine with it being in the movie... the 370z is still way under apreciated though... MANY think its a disguised 350z

Look on the bright side maybe more people will buy Z's and then we can get more companies looking into making aftermarket parts.

I do not think the Z will be ruined by this movie.
Mainly because the price keeps it above your typical 'ricer' price range and not enough used cars are on the market (cheap enough) yet for them to pick up.

Face it buddy... the Z is pure rice. Especially with the catfish grille and the bloated butt...
So is the evo. The top evo hits 40k to so don't have elitist illusions about price keeping you out the rice stigma. The gt-r is 90k of extra long grain rice but its still a hot car.. I love the z design but I'm not gonna trick my brain into thinking its not a ricey car. I just don't care what domestic car lovers think about my import choices.

Fast and furious story lines suck, but the cars are the stars and the award will go to the hott riced out Z. FTW
