I will have to check it out at the Auto Show to really decide if I like it or not. But I think its pretty good looking.

Can you get pics of center console (stereo, etc...)

I expected it to look more different than the 350Z, still looks great though. And love the seats, cloth inserts make for excellent ass grip through corners.

i don't have a pic of all of it together, but here's what i do have:

the gauges above the center console (if you don't get the nav, you get a nice leather covered storage bin)

just below the bin

and the doors have the same leather/non slip cloth mix.

I think it looks better than the 350z, and its nice seeing less plastic in the interior. Where did you take these pics at Nismo_fan?

Side profile will definately look sick since it resembles old school Z's now. As for the front and rear lights :barf:

Lower red light on the rear = rear fog??

Seeing as he's in Calgary, its at one of the Nissan dealerships and, u can rule out Sunridge Nissan as one of the guesses....but wow u guys got those quick....we dont get the Cube/370z til Mayish

nope it's a rear fog. I've driven it, it's a lot quieter then the 350. Shifting is a lot smoother as well. Other then that, the drive is quit similar.

Overall, I think the car looks pretty hot on the outside. Hard to tell much about the interior, but it's got promise. I'm not sure about the Maxima-esque headlights and taillights, but maybe those will grow on me. That's getting a bit picky though - the overall appearance looks good.

well that is neat. from my googling apparantly, it is all wired up, but has no bulb, and would need a different control stock in order to operate it as the function is not there on the usdm stock.

don't quote me on this, but i believe the ones we have are functional. I haven't tried it yet though. I will have to check it out tomorrow.

The roofline looks really strange from certain angles and the interior looks too busy with no cohesiveness and you can see the same old cheap Nissan hard plastic by the gauge pods on the dash. For example the new MS3 interior looks much better. Maybe it will look better in person.

All I've got to say is RIP 350Z

Looks kind of cheap on the inside.... but the exterior rear doesn't look too bad. Should be a fun car.

Why all the hate on their interiors, I don't think their that bad. :dunno:

I've been in plenty of cars in similar price ranges that are of the same feel.

Those fenders look huge (looks great!), I like the overall car just also not so big on the headlight and tailight 'extensions'.

I don't like Nissan/Infiniti interiors.

i'm not a fan of those L shaped lights. Also, from the pictures, the seats look horrible...

nismo_fan
03-03-2009, 07:33 PM
ok, first....the pics are from stadium nissan.

second, the interior is way nicer imo than the 350.

third, the seats are so comfy, and they keep you in place.

ummmm any other questions?

ps. the rear light in the middle is functional. it is a "fog" light.

That seems so weird still, why have them not functional on the us vehicles, but functional on the canadian vehicles, good feature none the less to scare off people riding your tail.

I haaatttted this car when pics were first released but now I totally dig it. I love the rear window, it's super retro. The brakes and seats look like junk on this model but probably because it's a base. They look so nice done up properly.

Those done up ones posted though do look quite good, and the gt is probably much nicer inside than the base, but a few mods here and there, like TE-37's and you are set.

^ I sat in the Cube at the Edmonton car show and was dissapointed. The Kia Soul that was there was way better imo even though niether is the type of vehicle I would buy.

As for the 370Z, I think it looked better in person than when I say it first online. The head and tail lights don't bother me in person like they do in pictures. Interior is way better then the old ones. Although if you don't have the nav, the 'storage' compartments seems rather useless. It is too shallow and high. I have no idea what you would keep in there.

My only complaint still is the front bumper. You don't notice the fangs as much in person but they are still stupid looking imo.

Beautiful car.. much nicer than the 350Z. The side profile looks retro and at the same time looks like a BMW, especially the fenders make it look like a Z4 with the flame surfacing.

Great job.

worked the vechicles and violins last night (pre car show) the 370 is there in silver, pretty nice, can't really say much cause the 2010 GTR is right beside it haha now thats a car. As for the cube and soul, well the cube is just butt ugly.. there in puke green looks like something Borat would drive, and the soul is just the upgrade of it...

The Corral has some nice cars, lambos.. ferraris, masseratis, 2 spykers, bentleys some other cars.
