I'm stoked, I'll be driving the Z on the Phx to Hou leg of the rally. We want ALL the classic Datsun owners to show up and show Nissan Corporate how much enthusiast support there is, and to encourage them to get BACK into motorsports!!!
Polish up your Datto and roll out - I promise you it'll be well worth it!

So what do you guys thinks of the new Z? To me it looks a bit better than the 350 (not a fan of the looks of that car - too portly). Seems they took some styling cues from the 240Z rather than the 300ZX.
Headlights and taillights are a bit fussy though.

It's sexy as hell!
300 lbs lighter, plus more power = one fun Z!

I think it has more 240z in it than the Z33 which is good for nostalgia.
But I also think that Chris Bangle was hired to design it because it has some really weird angles...the 3/4/side view looks alot like a Z4 coupe! And those lights, whoa!
I agree with more hp/reportedly less weight it should be quick!

Thankfully, Bangle was not allowed anywhere near it.
The sculpting and shapes really don't translate to photos as well as they work in person.
I'm waiting to see it with some one-off custom-made 20" Watanabes with BRE stripes and Datsun Z badging.

I'd have to see one live as the GT-R pics didn't do the real McCoy justice at all.
Regardless whether you like 'em or not, they'll blend into the scenery like all new cars once they sell enough of them.

You're right, nothing wheels and a better stance can't change!
