RhinoG is infamous around these parts
370z

What do people think about the new 370Z? I'm thinking of getting one in spring.

The exterior killed it for me. I don't like the new look.

I have to agree with Francesco. I thought the new look would grow on me, but I haven't budged lol.

What do you think about the G37?

I think it looks good in the metal. I have driven a couple of them already. One completely base model... and one that had the Touring and Sport packages but without Nav. I had a chance to use the SynchroRev transmission, and it truly is unbelievable. It just works so well! I liked the way the car felt, though the seating position feels interesting and you can now see the hood in the windshield instead of it dropping away like in the 350Z. It doesn't feel much faster though. Could be because the engine is smoother and the speedo has different positioning of the numbers. Would I recommend it? Absolutely. I actually prefered the steering feel over that in the Gallardo. Go figure.

I think it's a pretty sharp rendition of the old cars. I think with some tasteful mods you'd have a real winner on your hands.

The exterior still needs to grow on me but the interior is a huge improvement over 350Z.

I think the g37 looks good, but when I actually sat in one and went for a test drive I didn't like it.

I think the 370z is going to be like the 06 STI. Ugly at first, then grows on people. They have some companies that will make some nice aftermarket body work for the Z, but in stock form its not appealing.

I dunno, I kinda like the headlights. I guess they're a love it or hate it thing.

I like the new 370z.
The arrowhead headlights and taillights are actually something I like.
Plus, when you see this thing, it helps.

Not sure I like the headlights and tailights yet. I think I like the 350 better, but the 370 engine rocks.

I like it more than the original. New interior is nice, I like the headlights/taillights, and it sounds good too!

Definitely, I didn't like it when it first came out, but I am starting to. Really wierd car in that way. Usually, I either like a car or don't, this one is different, it is almost like you have to be in the mood for it.
