My thoughts exactly

I like 'em both, actually... but the lateral light output on the slim lights would probably suck.

The OEM reminds me of gut hook knives.

or (awful chop but you get the idea)

I would cut out the body work tab over the light rather than making the light slimmer.

- Mike - 11-11-2008

maybe we can round off the top of the light as well to hearken back to the retro round lights a little bit more?

- Kaan - 11-11-2008

someone fill in that damn little rear window! Wink i like the chop on the lights btw

- Steve85 - 11-11-2008

Overall Ilike it...even better with the first chop.

I'd love it if not for the catfish front fascia.

I think that's actually my favorite part. Interesting there are so many different takes on the same car.

- Dave - 11-11-2008

I really dig Scotty's chop with the larger headlight.

The catfish front bumper could use a little work, but I'm sure the aftermarket will pump out some good options in that area.

- mrbaggio - 11-11-2008

looks like a sting rays mouth in the front

- Feersty - 11-11-2008

For some reason it is taking the light design cues from the Maxima, which isn't that bad, but does take some getting used to.

- Jake - 11-11-2008

I like both chops better than the real 370. Either way, I think it looks better than the 350 (sorry Adam Z). This design reminds me of the 240/280 which, IMO, are hawt cars.

Really not liking the head/tail lights much though.

i love the color, but i am still unsure about the stance. there are just some aspects that look goofy that i can't put my finger on.

- mrbaggio - 11-19-2008

the lights look better from the front

- CaptainHenreh - 12-02-2008

I'm sure a few of you have seen this, but:

The side profile is great.

And I love center mounted tachs:

- Mike - 12-02-2008

i think they're on to something with the new side profile, but they're not quite there yet. maybe still a little too bulbous on the ends?

- Steve85 - 12-02-2008

Love the side profile.

It strikes me as bringing some of the past forward as opposed to the Mustang trying to redesign the past.

Does the hood look longer to anyone else? More overhang in the front? (not in a bad way).

3200 lbs and dubble wishbone front suspension - not bad at all

- Ryan T - 01-02-2009

Went and drove one today. I wasn't crazy about the dash setup, the seat sat so low and the gauges were placed so high that it made looking at the road sorta hard. I'm not especially tall or short (6') but if you were in the 5'7" range or so it'd be downright hard to see out of the car. Seat was comfortable and all the power options were within easy reach and the shifter was in a good position, hand pretty much fell right to it. Transmission felt a little jello-ey but the clutch felt great. Steering didn't feel much different than the 350Z, strong in normal driving but lacking a little if you pushed it. Power was good for what I got to use of it, car only had 13 miles on it so I didnt' rag on it. Handling felt really good, very solid, very smooth and seemed very easy to control. Car never felt unpredictable and didn't feel like it was prone to excessive under or oversteer. Brakes were solid for what driving I did, didn't really push them though. Sticker on the one I drove was rigth at $35,000. Dunno if I'd pay that for it, but it was a pretty sweet driving car, too bad it's sorta ugly.
