If this body kit comes into existence, I'll re-consider my thoughts on picking a Z34.5 up.

Looks like a Fast and Furious C7. Ill pass.

I gotta say, when I really look at the diffuser in this picture, with this light, and this close up, I am not fond of this rear diffuser. How it flares back from the side, then goes up and over the exhaust pipes. I'm not sure how I've not noticed it until now. Perhaps its just this lighting or angle in this picture, but as it is here is really looks bad, IMO.

And when we saw it on the white a few days ago with the splash guards. Ugh. Puke city.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...093cb0b219.jpg

This thing is less than a 370 in every way except HP and an available 9 spat.

Looks wise its 3 steps backwards from a 370. Its almost ugly to me. The design goal was obviously a 5 car mix up but it fails. It looks like a 370Z with a new bottom, and not a good one. The black roof thing is a cover up to hide the 370 same top. It's trying to take the old 370 and make it Jag and Aston Martin, but completely fails. Or at least 90% fail.

I'm glad Nissan tried. But they need to get their stuff in order. This effort is embarrassing to me. I predict this car will be a big huge sales flop.

Nissan needs a new design and project management team. Their recent offerings suck.

So, you keep expressing how much you dislike the new Z.

I rarely say this on the 370Z forums, because I am here to learn about the little brother of my Infiniti and not share my opinion of the 370Z, but, I gotta say the 370Z looks like total crap to me. Just garbage in comparison to a Z32, TBH.
When the 350Z came out I was so mad about Ghosn's obvious French influence on Nissans, and the 370Z was just the worst manifestation of that. Lobster claw tail/headlights, bulbous, stupid fangs, awkward proportions and stupid looking door handles.

I don't mean to sound like a jerk to people who like the 370Z, but to me, the new Z is a million times better looking than the 370Z. I just gotta counterpoint your criticisms of the new Z. No disrespect!

I get it. But you see I never loved a Z until I saw the 370Z. For me its a front engine poor man's Porsche. I love it. You must not like Porsches.

I figure it's better to voice my dislike for the new Z here rather than on the new forum. No point and let them have their fun.

As for the rear end, I'm sorry, but the new rear looks weird and its boring. The new spoiler sucks compared to the 370. The 300ZX *** was ugly as hell to me in 1990s so imitating it is beyond me, and this new diffuser is horrible.

The front? This new front is better? Are you kidding? I can see arguments against both, but wow this new square box thing takes the cake.

Let the discussions continue....

Per a Nissan dealer today:

An update for everyone. This morning Nissan sent out emails to us saying reservations for the Ariya are currently in motion. This is a big deal due to the new Z being the next car to be rolled out by Nissan. As it currently stands, this isn't conformed but we should expect Z reservations to begin some time after January 3rd.

Yeah, I'm not a big fan of the video itself either nor the condition the car was in.

Unless I'm mistaken, this is the first time the New Z's Launch Control has been filmed in action.

Yeah I agree. The whole "let's go open up a car that's not ours" is either stupid or staged.

The launch though, the 9AT option doesn't seem to be a bad deal.

Video aside, I meant that Bonzo seems to feel the need to explain in detail exactly why he hates the new Z about every other day. I mean, hey Bonzo, we get it, you don't like it. :icon14:

Sorry, I'll shut up for now.

I'll reserve my final opinions when I see it in person.

Maybe it'll grow on you.

When the new Tundra came out, many like myself were "disappointed" in it. Now I want to buy one!

Maybe. Time will tell. I'd like to like it.
