Would be cool if suspension was still the same; I’d like to see if they still have plenty of legroom

It's... ok. I'm not prepared to say I hate it yet, until I see what they do with the final design, and seeing it in person may change my opinion. I wasn't a huge fan of either the 350z or the 370z initially, but they grew on me and now I think the 370 has gorgeous lines.

The interior upgrades seemed nice. But I'm sticking with the 370z for quite a while - and like Madwi, it'd still be nice to get my hands on a 300zx tt!

I hated the 350z. The 370z model was OK until I saw a Nismo version. When I saw that I had to have a Nismo 370z. I will wait for the new Nismo version. Even back in the day when the 1990 300zx came out. It was OK. When I saw the twin turbo version, I loved it.
I will keep my current 370z Nismo for a long long long time.

Really?? The 350Z, esp. the 07/08, is what made me convert to Nissan from Honda (and I've had my fair share of Honda vehicles).

Funny story: As soon as I bought my '07 Z, I thought I had the best car in the world. And then the next day, they unveiled the 370Z, and I looked at my 350Z and said "you suck".

Really. I thought the departure from the shape of the z32 was pretty extreme, and the z32 was what I really wanted at the time. But the appearance grew on me. I loved my z33, still love my z34.

Morning all, sitting through OSHA training... riveting stuff

Next up, Management Review and training a new person. The fun just never ends! How're things here?

I would rather take an ice pick to the side of the head instead of sitting through OSHA training.

If I went that route, my wife would complain; she married me for my beauty, not my personality, and lord knows both of those things are in short supply!

I tend to dislike Management Review... under the old regime, it was a lot of 'rahrah' and thin on 'where do we go from here'.

I did find out yesterday from the CEO, that my co-worker & I have major input (and the final say) on our new device's form factor and features, to include who will manufacture it.

Depends on the level of management buy-in. At my last company, the meeting was just for show. Here, it's not perfect, but it does (gradually) drive change.

It sounds like you're getting a lot more influence! That's great news!

I had a stress test done in 2014. That was good. Thinking about doing another one.
