Default Similarities between GT-R and 370Z

Hey,

I used to own a 1992 300zx and loved it.

I was hoping you all can help settle a debate which started when a friend was recently talking about the GT-R and I asked "Does it look anything like the new 370Z?" "No, its completely different," he said. I thought I had seen the GT-R at some point but then thought I must be mistaken. I asked if there are any similarities and he said its 100% different.

After looking up some pictures, I thought the GT-R looks like a 370Z on steroids. The hood and headlights are similar. The overall shape of the car is similar. The tail, however, is very different. Overall, I think they are at least somewhat similar.

My friend said that they are not even 1% similar... and also that if I said the GT-R somewhat resembles the front of an Eclipse, he would agree.

If we are comparing sports cars, if I was to list cars that are 100% different versus the GT-R and from each other, I would say 911, Corvette, Audi R8. These are all 100% different, but I dont think the GT-R is 100% different than the 370Z.

What do you think?
