Like all the new Hondas, they did great on everything except the front end. But yes, like all the new Hondas, the car is better in every way other than that!

Haha, aesthetically, this car seems to appeal to some but not necessarily to others. There's no doubting that it's worlds beyond the older Z models in terms of craftsmanship, maneuverability and responsive handling though...

Looks like a Tiburon. In other words, I don't like it.

Nice! You probably saw them around the time the rally was in your area - did you make it out?

I agree; it's really cool to be able to check out the cars before they hit the market...I can even say I was one of the first girls to ever sit in a 370Z, haha! (well, at least I think that's cool ) If you have any pics of the car, you should upload them to followthenissanz.com

The next one is January 4th, 2009 at Lollicup: 106 S. Semoran Blvd., Winter Park, FL 32792 from 2pm-6pm so head out if you can :)

Basically be prepared to see the headlight changes with Nissan. They are going from a triangle styles headlight to the new "boomerang" style first introduced by the new Maxima.

If you wanna see what the SynchroRev Match Manual Transmission is all about, check out this video: http://community.followthenissanz.co...064/60840.html - interviews with Nissan’s Product Planning team and a few of the first enthusiasts to drive the vehicle and try out SynchroRev ;)

I love the windows on the side. Kinda adds a twist of old school going back to the early z cars with a modern look.

I didn't know that GT Spec was here on the Island. Looks like they're around the corner from where Unorthodox Racing used to be. Actually, come to think of it Unorthodox still owe me a favor. Too bad all they really make is pulleys and I have an automatic.
