Yeah I don't know if I need to slap myself, but the headlights are starting to look less ugly to me. I'm also thinkin a new aftermarket front bumper is a MUST HAVE for anyone that buys it haha.

You don't think you'll ever be able to afford a max 40k car?

Don't know what to make of it yet. Those headlights still haven't grown on me although I will admit that they look a lot better than the ones on the new Maxima.

that refined headlight shape is certainly an improvement, but the indentation is still dumb looking. love the rear fenders. beltline seems to be a bit lower than the z33, but can't be certain from that pic.

It does, doesn't it. I think it might be the side windows that may be giving that impression. I do hope it is a little lower though.

Also, I wouldn't call the Z window design necessarily retro. It just took some cues from the timeless Z styling.

Ok, so it looks more like a 240z but what about the weight? Piggy needs to go on a diet if it really wants to be a contemporary S30.

The test mule that was spied months and months ago was smaller all around. So hopefully we can expect the 370 will be lighter.

The "new maxima" headlights are godawful, the 3.7L is a nice upgrade.

hmm lightweight and more horses? im thinking a 13 flat quarter mile would be appropriate! its about time they stepped up the performance of the Z. i always thought of it as too much of a cruiser rather than a sports car. just .02
