still looks too much like the 350Z or the 'skyline' 350GT IMHO

hmm.. maybe has promise.. but it's all a bit 'Bungle' (read: Bangle) on the sides of the car.. bit of a mess of dodgy concave and convex shapes...


edit: also, it is,as you said, too obviously based around a 350Z floorpan.

So what if its based on the 350 floor plan, i think they've done enough to make it into a unique model. I really like it yes

Looks muscular and aggresive. Looks particularly good from the rear, which has a touch of the Corvette Z06 about it.

Looks like a step above 350Z... Love it! I was worried it was going to be a bit 'tame' in the looks department. Looking forward to the new supra !

I just wanted to see these pics next to each other to see if I can make out whether the fron bumper will actually look like that or not

edit: Its not far off actually. Should be quite a good looking beast IMO when its released

And for a comparison of the rear

It'll be interesting to see EVO put this in a group test- what would it go up against though- a £100k 997TT or a £55k Cayman, Z06, Monaro...

Video of the car at the 'Ring.

The presence of the 997TT in the vid speaks volumes....

Price hasn't been set yet but generally thought to be in the £60-80k region yikes

I like it, it's very similar to the concept. The mirrors look better big imo.
