I ....like it?
I really like the proportions, and headlights don't bother me at all. I could do without the "fangs" in the front, but this looks like a pretty cool car.

So apparently some dude on VWvorex took my photos from here and posted them as his.

The funny thing is that multiple car blogs and online video mags have used the photos and are giving credit to this livingVoice guy and VWvortex instead of me and Acurazine. I've attempted to contact the appropriate people to change that. I didn't watermark them because I'm not about making money on them but proper credit is due IMHO.
Other blogs or online mags that used the pictures (kinda cool actually, except for the wrong source info of course!)

Acurazine simply isn't as popular as VWvortex
I don't see that he claimed the pictures as his own, but I don't know that he edited his post either. I wouldn't blame him, he was more oblivious than anything, it was more of the other site's faults for not knowing, but then again its not like they knew either. You do deserve credit though....
I say you watermark every single picture you take from now on, whether you post it up online or not
LOL I just went back and read my post, then saw the livingvoice guy's info and noticed he's from SJ, CA.... I swear its not me!
btw did I mention that I recently bought a 2007 G35 sedan?

LOL the very first thing I noticed was he is from San Jose! I thought for a second he f ing did take them and claim they were his that damn I Go To Costco but then I saw he was 36 and owns a G35.
I will probably watermark any future photos, not for me making money or anything, just for Acurazine to get the exposure and due it deserves.

it seems that nissan is trying too hard to reshape their headlights. first it was in the new maxima, now the 370z. i think that the L shaped headlights in the G35/G37 and EX35 are was better than this.

dang.
Nissan says next 370Z to compete with Porsche
When Nissan launched the 350Z in '02, it was working hard to reinvent itself and the new Z was clearly its halo car in the U.S. market. Now that that the revival has come and gone, expect the new 370Z to take on a new tack as a harder edged vehicle. In fact, Nissan plans to take on Porsche, the most classic of all sportscar manufacturers, with its newest coupe. Equipped with a larger 335-hp 3.7-liter V6 engine and having gone on a serious diet, possibly shedding as much as 200 lbs, the new Z will definitely have the cojones to keep up with its foes, including the Cayman, and its shorter wheelbase and wider track should conspire to make it quite the handler as well. We'll get our first official look at the new son-of-Godzilla at the LA Auto Show, shorty after which the Nissan 370Z should show up in Japanese dealerships with U.S. delivery at a later date. Hopefully, not too much later.

The interior still looks kind of crappy...mainly the center column/gear shift area.
