Well, the upcoming 2010 370Z has apparently been revealed via these photos. I like it much more than the current iteration, but like the concept I posted earlier, I also prefer this 3rd party rendering, by GRID.

yeah, Nissan really needs to go retro with the Z, just like everyone else is going retro right now.

The 370z looks like the same 350z with shitty maxima lights.

I really like the retro concept in red. The old Datsun 280s are way cool and definitely a unique car. I think a retro-styled Z would be successful if only because of the retro craze that's going on with the 'murrican cars right now.

The "grid Z" in Goodspeed's post looks pretty good in my opinion.

The whats the difference between the "2010 Z" and the ones they've been making for the past 8 years? Seriously, it looks like somebody took a current model, rammed it into a wall at 10 mph, and said "done".

uhh maybe because it's kinda like a tricked out original z? i don't understand what's concept or earth shattering about it. it doesn't look to share anything with the current iteration, and i doubt nissan would think about going a completely new direction w/ it. not hating on your for liking it... i do too... hating on goodspeed posting a pipe dream in here.

I hate to be completely vain and tool-ish, but this is shot from my apartment door and I think my own car fits the "hot-and-bothered" category. Well, at least for a Miata enthusiast...

tool.

And the "Grid Z" reminds me of a Crossfire in a lot of ways.

I think it looks a lot like the Z4 coupe, just with a few different angles.

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth

agree. The rear splitter seems crossfireish though.

Turbo meth and nitrous?!?!? Holy shit....

I can't fathom the money you must have to be ok with the risks involved with running that many power adders on a Porsche!

I love those rims though!

Also putting a huge nitrous bottle in the front of your car is probably not the smartest idea for safety's sake.... haha

When your annual salary has two commas in it, I don't think you really care.
