"I don't know anything about car design, but isn't the tires kind of close to the fenders? Looks like there is no shock at all."
"240 z was a fun car.
You do need a little more room in the wheel wells.
Maybe a little lift in the rear to make it a little more aggressive."
and
"Very nice, you should send this car design to ford or something."

I think our modern day z33 Rays wheels would be more fitting (no pun intended).

honestly though, cool concept, awesome skill. but the headlights make it look like something just jumped out of the bushes and scared it, and it has some serious overbite

For a modern z I think the guy needs to incorporate what Nissan is doing in their modern headlights. It's hawt though but I would have liked to see something that wasn't so 1972ish. Looks more like the Datsun attempt of Elenor. Not to replicate Elinor but just an update of an older car. It's really nice though.

we need nissan to build something like this
Awesome dude keep up the good work

sick. That is all. If headlights were updated it would deffinatly make the car look waaaaay more modern. Would that mean it would probably uglier? Yesh.

definitely looks more like a z than the z33 does.

Fix the front bumper, and then get rid of the side vents. You have yourself a winner!

keep everything, update the lights, slam it back down to where it was in the first pic, add fender mirrors and an I6, that would be the soul of the Z car embodied.
i would find a way to buy one.

That is seriously sick!
I have a pic of the new 350z concept i got from a high level source about a month ago that combines the old Z styling with the current 350z styling. It pretty sick as well. Makes you wonder why they took so long.

06-16-2008, 03:49 AM
WTF are you guys talking about?
This would look stupid with the current nissan style headlights. Go look at a 350 on google right now. It would totally kill the whole nostalgic feel of this car.
Awesome concept as it is. :bow:

If only nissan would listen to us, they are coming out with shit designs lately that are just getting bulkier and uglier!

06-16-2008, 06:02 AM
I love it, except for a few small things.
I've never really been a fan of the rear window slotted shade thing, or center exhausts, and the headlamps could use some work.
It's just exterior stuff, so I could always change that though (Were the car real).
I'd buy it :)

omg that shit is sick man!!!!!!! I WANT IT!!!!!!!!!
that thing needs a beast engine like a in-line 6 or something!!

You are not the demographic for it (new 350Z concept). The 50ish/ 60ish YO man is. :-/

That dude is the MAN! Holy effin Christ is that this hot!
Too bad nothing like this will ever happen.
It would be super hot if Nissan had a 370z, and then instead of a new SX they did a retro Z like this.

start a writein campaign (can anyone say browncoats?) and get them to turn it into a "major motion..." automobile? :-P
Anyway, baddass. Deffinitely beats the 350z, esspecially in the reat (sorry, 350z has an ugly has rear end, someone should have been shot :( )
And thats not overbite, thats SharkNose!!!
Would have added to the rear bumper alittle around the "mud flap" area to make a smoother transition to the side skirts. I know thats not retro, but why remember the past when we can improve it?

wow when i read retro z i was thinking nissan was gonna go overboard, but it has the same lines as a z but a more modern look... i like it

That is pretty damn sweet I must say. 20 yrs cycle is long overdue. I would buy that w/o a doubt. his guy has really great skill.

btw, does anyone know of rims similar to those in the model? I mean, especially, the sunken mesh-like design; i know that mesh spokes exist.

I LOLed pretty hard at the Ford comment.
Is anyone else seeing a little Ferrari 612 Scaglietti in the sides? Bah who cares...It's gorgeous!

would be sweet too bad unrealistic.. no front crash bumper
and that front looks like it would create too much front end drag
but the guy has skills

06-16-2008, 02:36 PM
WOW!
That is beautiful.
What a gift to us older cats it would be.
Fender mirrors and a call to Watanabe for some one-off 19/20"s.
Oh and definitely a DATSUN badge.

Holy fuck, this thing is fucking awesome. I would TOTALLY buy this
Biggest selling point to me:
KEEP IT UNDER 3000 POUNDS!!!!!!!
YES U NISSAN
SHIFT_*grind*
06-16-2008, 07:37 PM
Echoing everyone and saying it's the hottest thing ever, ever, ever ever ever. Hotter than anything Nissan's done in the last ~25 years. Fuck me.

06-16-2008, 07:45 PM
While it is dope and whatnot. It would never fall into current federal crash safety standards. With that said, someone should at least contact Nissan Design in La Jolla with this, just to show them whats going on.
P.S. If they came out with anything near close to it, I would buy it in a heartbeat.
