and the rendered speculation...

I like it. It's kind of like a cute girl who was a bit on the chubby side, but finally is starting to make good on her new year's resolution.

British roadster proportions...only bloated.

I like it.
2. 1995 Saturn SL2 5-speed, 126,500 miles. 5,000 miles in two and a half months. That works out to 24,000 miles per year if I can keep up the pace.

I don't care about all that shit.  I'll be going to college to get an education at a cost to my parents.  I'm not going to fool around.

I like it, a lot actually. 

Now if only they made a hardtop in this fashion...

Looks like the Z4 in a way. I dig it

WAY WAY better than the current 350Z drop top.

Depending on price, that could be a good deal.

that speculation looks much better then the coupe

Raza

It looks like it was broken right behind the door.  It seems to take every bad feature of the Solstice and every bad feature of the 370 and stick it all together.  I'd much rather have the current roadster if it actually looks like this.

Pray to the sweet feathery gods that it doesn't have a folding hardtop.

No, won't work for me too.
But I probably won't like it anyway.

Proof they just mirrored the front to the back to save on design costs.




Honestly it looks like one of those locomotives that can drive both ways.

Ugh, they made the 370 look even worse.

Behind the door looks like crap.

I just can't get over the door handles on the Z. I couldn't stand them on the 350 and they still kill it for me on the 370. Something so small can just ruin it for me. Kind of like a hot girl with an awful voice.

I could and would if I had one. Just think how much better it would look if they had done something like the FD RX-7 did. Or at the very least not put massive silver handles that look out of place on the side.

Sex-say sex-say.  Much better than the 350Z.  Actually, between the coupe and roadster of both versions, the 370Z convertible is hands down the best looking.

It's shaping up as a possible post college car.  The protege5 will still be around as a winter car and people/shit mover.  And of course, a decent used F150 (probably last generation) will be added too.

I'm with Raza.  The rear end is positively awful.  The 350Z was a much better looking droptop (comparatively).

After you wake up with the sun at 6am on someone's floor, coughing up cigarette butts and tasting like warm beer, you may well change your opinion on this matter.

That picture literally made me cringe. The lines don't make any sense to me.

That was exactly my first thought.

It looks like the rear belongs to a different car.

Bad analogy, girls aren't suppose to be talking to begin with.  Plus, voice won't matter when they're mouths are full.

+1, but it would pretty difficult to make the current drop top worse.

Tave

I like the current 350Z 'vert. It has really simple lines that give you the illusion of a smaller car. I think it looks taut and sexy.
