WOW they killed it, sorry just trash now. Like some regular modded up Z, nothing more. Front grill is hideous, uggh. Auto tragic seriously in a nismo? (I get it boosts sales) Just not as mean and aggressive anymore and doesn't stand out from the pack any longer like the current Nismo does.

So, that's a NO GO for me.

I love the updated look. It's purely subjective as I'm a sucker for red trim.

However, the lack of any real improvement of the engine, simply confirms that major leaps in improvements to the Z simply isn't part of Nissan's business model.

Was really hoping they would give the Z the same treatment as the Nismo GTR. But this looks like they're just getting rid of inventory to pave the way for the Z35.

It does, doesn't it. Hatch swap I guess.

It's just like the 2013 refresh, I didn't really like it at first. Then guys started doing a few things to them and the look grew on me now I think they're hot.
