Nissan Z Proto
Well,
I must say that I've always liked the 370Z. I even almost got one instead of the Camaro. I always thought the car aged well despite it being over 10 years old. I recently saw the news about the Nissan Z Proto that will be replacing the 370Z... My first thought was "omg this thing is ugly as hell!!" Looks like a cheap Chinese copy of the car. The front end is just all messed up and the headlights, looks crap. The back ends looks like a cheap mustang (double fail!). Don't know what you think but to me, it's like a step backwards. https://www.caranddriver.com/photos/...ealed-gallery/

I still like the early 90s 300Z better than these new ones.

I traded my '12 2SS/RS auto for a '14 370Z sport. I loved the car but for a long legged, long armed 250 lb guy, the interior ergonomics were horrible. Traded it for my current hotrod a year later.

It looks really odd, at least to my eye. I wonder if it'll have both the 300 and 400hp TT-3.0L v6s from the Q60, or just one?

I like the z32 inspired taillights but not the rest of it. Maybe it'll be better in person! |

I like it overall. Good looking car.
It just needs some fog lights or something below the headlights.

I'm not a fan at all, it looks ugly from the front and rear. The side profile is good, but that is it.
Not my cup of tea. What I would really love to see (although not a Nissan) is a modern version of the last gen. RX-7 from Mazda. Now that is a beautiful car and would look great modernized.

I think the Nissan Z Proto needs a little more sculpture to it. The body panels are a little too flat with not that much depth to them. I do like the side profile though because it reminds me of the 1st and 2nd gen Z's.
Unfortunately, I never liked the 3rd gen 300ZX or the 350Z. They looked like sow bugs. The Proto Z brings back that classic long-hood short-rear deck profile that looked so timeless on the early Z's. I just hope they give it the performance to compete with the Camaro and Mustang. |
