You could probably find a brand new 11 for dirt cheap too. Good luck either way.

I don't know, I'd say anyone using a Neil deGrasse Tysson meme is worth their salt.

My biggest gripe with how the 350 looked was the dumb light strips in the bumpers. Just looks silly imo. I was really psyched that the 370 dropped them and went out and bought it!

BeksNice, no worries on what 09-12 owners think. They do have beautiful cars and they really love them. So if they feel theirs are so much nicer than our future 13's, I'm not going to disagree with them, it is a matter of personal taste.

As for saying hate or ugly, definitely not words I would choose in describing someone else's car, but if that's their vocabulary, it is what it is.

I've posted a few more 13 pics in Genereal Discussions, 2013 Prices, You Guessed It thread.

Nissan didn't take out the fangs, it's only been redesigned. It's still there if you look closely.




That's good that you like the fangs. Maybe you should've written a letter to Nissan protesting the minor change. I'm quite certain the 2009-12 bumper would fit on the 2013 body.


The 350Z was in production for 6 model years (2003-08). I believe from 2006-08, Nissan changed a few things including the wheels, front bumper, tail lights, and hood. I suppose the reason they did this was to keep the 350Z looking fresh while buying time until the 370Z's production release. So one would imagine something similar w/ the 370Z; the 2009-12 all have a similar look, then they refreshed a few things for the 2013 minor change model. Nissan just wants to keep the 370Z looking fresh until they can release whatever sucessor they have in the works.

2003 Nissan 350Z



2007 Nissan 350Z




These things happen..

Another example:


1995-96 Nissan 240SX aka zenki S14



1997-98 Nissan 240SX aka kouki S14
