I see a little Datsun 280Z in it, myself.

you should like the new one since it has its taillights :)

I like a bunch of things about it, particularly 400hp and a 6spd. Like some others, I do worry that the age of the platform will be a liability.

A rwd, smallish, manual, 6-cyl coupe... I should like it, but somehow the design is not drawing me in. Is it the awful, huge rectangular grille? Is the color or the two-tone? I'm not sure.

It looks like they were going for the bargain basement midpoint between an Aston, the Supra, and the Z4.

I had no idea this was coming out ... I think it is pretty cool but Nissan's interior's lately seem very bland ...

Torch has a nice piece on it. He even proposes a "fix" for the front:

That .. is not an improvement.

Obviously the new car was meant to capture as much of the original S30 as possible.

The Z32 300ZX is one of my favorite designs of all time, but I generally love the design of a lot of the early 90's Japanese "supercars"

A couple of interesting things I've noticed over the past few days--first, ppl mad about the square grille have never really looked at a 240Z:

Second, I'd forgotten all about the Nissan MID4 (both generations), and how genuinely good looking the second gen car was.

It needs a little more rubber especially on the rear, but it's a really slick design. Better than the (later) NSX, or at least its equal.
