997 Turbo looks tiny compared to the 370z

Forgot to take picture of the rear. But the 370z front is wider than the 997.

Wow. I love the Z's looks but that Porsche really shows up the 370z in the looks dept. Z looks a little off compared to the clean lines of the Porsche. Its funny because when I see a Porsche next to a Ferrari or Lamborghini it looks so plain and ordinary. Price difference I guess [Z - 911]. Z looks like Hulk next to the 911 She Hulk

997 > Z, no doubt. The Z isn't really a "small" car by any means. It's smaller than a lot of cars, sure, but it's still kind of big. It doesn't look "small" when I park it next to my co-worker's new Accord sedan, which is kind of annoying. It's just about the same height!

Ive always been in love with the new 911 turbo's.

I think thats why I was quick to fall in love with the 370z, because the body lines are similar and so it was easy for it to grow on me. (and more affordable! haha)

Granted in your first photo, the Z is parked a few feet closer and you shot it with a camera phone. Wide angle lenses will make closer objects appear larger.

Although the 370Z is a bit shorter than the 350Z, it is still a giant next to the 300ZX. [sigh] I miss the smaller proportions.

The rear is wider on the 911, try avoiding cones or using curbs at the track, you will feel how annoying it is to deal with that.

I'm assuming there were no size changes, between the standard 911 and the 997!
