But none are unique design's. ford, dodge, chevy none have stepped out the box of the domestic look. Sure a mustang looks different then a Camaro... ect. the 370z is a 4 year old car and people still ask me what kind of car it Is. Look at the NSX, 300zx, Supra, 370z they are all... "to me" unique.

Oh the ford GT is an exception

They ask what kinda of car it is because it's so damn rare! Doesn't hurt that the Z is sexy as hell, but the scarcity of them is really what's driving that.

People never asked about my 350z since there was a million of those things sold, but the 370z was different.

When the new Camaro first came out it was pretty awesome, now... there are WAY too many.

Camaros, Mustangs, Challengers and even Vettes are everywhere especially around here. Taking nothing away from the Z06 as I would take one in a heart beat. But as far as the design team I think they got the C7 near perfect. Sure it pulls from other designs but there isnt much you can do these days to be different. I am not completely sold on the looks of the rear end the jury is still out on that until I see one in person.

The C7 vette will be on the short list when the time comes to upgrade.

Agreed, along with new M3 and Cayman S. Will be looking to possibly swap out the Z in 2016. Give Chevy & BMW a couple of years to get the majority of the bugs out, plus my Z will only be 3 model years old, so I should still have good resale value.

I think the pontiac solstice was a unique design but, crappy suspension and poor ergonomics kept the solstice from being the classic it should've been.

I hsve to agree with all your statements though.
