Sure, it sticks out. As an over-priced, unobtainable car. ha. Seriously, I could get a few STI's before I could get one of those. And I would be doing better by getting an STI in the first place.

Nissan is a hit or miss kind of company. Most of the time they build nothing special, and then all of a sudden they build something like the GT-R

The GT-R is really nothing special. I'm sorry, but creating a car complete with "bye bye transmission" and "void warranty" buttons really doesn't impress me. What would impress me would be if you could use all the car's factory equipment and drive the car to its potential without voiding the warranty. Or drive the car onto a track and not void the warranty just by being there. Or if the transmission wasn't almost $20,000 outside of warranty. Or if it didn't look like they stopped putting thought into the looks of the car after the rear windows. Or if it came with a third pedal.

Semi old thread is a semi dead section, but the 370z IMO is very nice. I never cared for the 350's, but I've seen a few 370z's w/sport package+pearl white paint, wow.

I don't care for the GTR's, way too big and they don't "look" great to me.

I've been debating whether or not my next car will be a PW 370z

lol had to find pics of every angle. Like some others, never been a fan of Nissan. Seen a couple 300zx's that were nice, and the new maxima's look good. Never cared too much for white paint or nissans, but they go well together

Nissan makes ugly cars, and their family cars are unreliable as poooop.

Nike, my mom's 97 Pathfinder has only been in the shop twice since she got it for free from a friend in 2000. Once for a new radiator, and once for a new LCA. It has yet to fail to start...and you say that Nissan's family cars are unreliable ^_^

I like SOME Nissans. i can't like them all, since they build everything from a Stanza to the Skyline

I have driven a 370Z and I was not impressed. I didnt like the clutch feel (spring loaded flywheel I was told), but that could always be changed. The rear windsheild/rear view mirror seems as if you are looking out of a 5"x5" window, the blind spots are terrible, and the little corner windows are pointless as you cannot see out of them when backing out of a spot.

Probably more, but I'll take my Civic over the 370Z. I like being able to feel every little thing in a car. Now, it may be because the Z I drove is 11 year newer than my car and 100% stock, however, I just wasn't a fan.

To each their own. I have a die hard Nissan fan as a friend, however, he has mentioned that he would like to get a Civic to DD if he had the extra money. I would never say the same about Nissan. I would just get another Honda (probably a Civic) if I had the extra $$$ for a DD.
