370z hate?

Styling is subjective. RWD two seater sports coupe with 330+ hp under 30k is a steal. The car is so much more refined than the 350 and is a much better performance car out of the box. Just compare the boring DE engine (which I owned) to the sophisticated high revving HR with VVEL all for basically the same price? Not to mention the HIDS, cruise, etc you now get standard.

I have learned not to rabble on forums about styling. I originally hated the styling of the 350 and now feel it was one of the most beautiful designs in a very long time.

Just as I loathed the boomerang lights they have grown on me and I appreciate them now.

Nissan came out with an amazing design in the 350, I think some were expecting something as revolutionary this time around. What they did was take the design and make it more aggressive.

I wish they would return to the low slung wedge design of the 300ZX with modern touches, but I am not going to bitch about an amazing car.

Car bigots exist on every forum. As a true car junky I have an appreciation for many brands and models but that's just me. We have our share of haters here too, both owners and wannabees..

On this, the new frontal pedestrian impact rules make any return to the "Wedge" pretty much impossible. Notice how many new cars have a more vertical front profile? No more flinging those jaywalkers over your roof...

Safety has taken much of the balls out extremity of racing and now the sexy wedge.. Oh well always used NSX's and Z's to be had!
