Quick specs.

- VQ37VHR engine rated for 332 hp and 270 lb-ft of torque
- 6 speed manual transmission 7 speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters and both offer down shift rev matching.
- Available 14" brake package
- ~100 lbs lighter than the current 350Z; lower, shorter and wider than current model
- Available 19" RAYS forged wheels wheels with 245/275 width tires.
- 2 silvers, white, yellow, red, blue, black among the exterior colors and black, gray and red-orange interior colors
- Available Nav, push button start, integrated screen, bluetooth, Bose system with music box

Basically, the suspension design, engine, transmission, brakes and center nav screen / controls are all lifted from the G37.  The "SyncroRev" feature for the 6MT is rev matching for downshifts once the clutch and synchros indicate a downshift is occurring.  Its a defeatable feature, but eliminates the need for heel toe maneuvers.  Even though it's the same engine and drivetrain as the G37, it's about 500 lbs lighter so it'll have a marked performance improvement.  Nothing really new here mechanically other than the revmatching feature on the 6MT, but its a better package than the G37 from a sport perspective.  And it's all wrapped up in fancy new packaging.

^ Agreed. Fourth picture gives it a very Porsche like appearance.

I think it looks decent. I'm not as impressed as I was hoping, though! They did a pretty good job at keeping the previous base styling of the car - the design is definitely evolutionary, as it should be - I think.

you obviously haven't taken advantage of the backseats in your car yet

I guess you missed my "intended translation" of taking advantage of the backseat, haha

nothing wrong with being youthful... just ask Antz

haha...

i'd like it to be a little bit MORE black than in your pic... but yeah that looks good.
