Good point, good point. So yeah, I guess this must be a different exhaust.

Basically, it looks like they deleted the 'sharks teeth' and those tiny little 'dimples' next to them and just squared off the entire opening. The entire thing is also pushed forward and downward due to the longer nose.

Hmm...that grille opening doesn't actually look much/any larger than the normal 370 with that front-on shot, as it shows that in towards the back part, it's actually closed off more than it looks from a distance. I'm guessing that this new fascia won't have any significant impact on cooling then.

Those are some great shots. I agree this would look fantastic with a black two-tone.

Wow, I'm loving this car. The PS with the two one is nice, but I like the whole thing body color myself.

Oh and the rear has hints of other bodykits, but the first thing that struck my mind was the do-luck rear for the 350Z.

This car is sweet, if I would take it over a cayman S or a M3 though, not so sure.

Oh value wise, it's definitely hard to argue against the 370z, non-nismo editions included.

However, '08 M3 coupes might be in the low 50K range pretty soon. Don't really follow the market on used caymans.

I'm predicting that the first few sets sold will garner a good amount of money, then the value will plummet. OEM rims simply don't hold their value.

How long do think it will be before they start selling the body kit, wheels, etc. ?? or are these going to be exclusive to the factory car?
