I'm a long time fan of the Z car and had been waiting for the release of this as my next car prior to buying the S.

As soon as I saw the concept car, I just could not talk myself into living with that look. Specs on the other hand sound fun.. Glad I got the S, makes me not miss my old Z's.

The lines don't flow from the windshield over the roof and down the back. Kind of looks like the roof was cut to sharp in the back. Will be interesting to see how it performs.

LUREN,

What do you have for specs? I know they vary according to who reports on the car and when. I do know that the car will MSRP in the $30K range.

I have been receiving teaser mailing from Nissan on this car for about a year. A few weeks ago, I got a deck of cards with "New Z" pictures on the back. The dash and seats are awesome.

I love my S, and will always own one, but this car will be worth a closer look. I plan to check it out.

BTW, what model Z cars did your drive? My personal favorite is the 260Z. In my opinion, Nissan hit the handling/performance mark with that model!
