I just looked at a pic of the new Toyota Supra and I think then made a beautiful thing but ass ugly. Before I saw the pic I was thinking of geting one instead of a 350z, but now i would rather drive a Honda Civic than a new Supra, hell the car is almost as ugly as a Toyota Echo. Here is a pic of the new Supra Ugly car: http://www.ozsupra.qld.org/web/picturesmain/supraimages/mark5/pictures_markv.htm

Which would u rather buy?????

Holy crap!!! I hope they're just making it look so hideous for the spy photographers out there and will come out with a completely different car when they do make it. That thing looks awful. The front looks like a Pontiac Sunfire. And the back is unchanged from the previous model. This can't be the thing that they're going to put out ont he market.

I have a friend who works for Toyota and he said he would have heard about it if Toyota was planning to do it anytime soon. He said that there is talk of a new Sportscar, but no idea of when or what it will look like.

Just to break the news a little the pic looks like the current FTO with bad paint job and a new face. Maybe they got it mixed up !!

Yeah they will clean that up before they release it. That Grille is way to big. The Z looked way better as a concept tho

The first pic looks like a mixture between an Alero and a sunfire, the second set of photos seem more accurate

they should just take the 98' model and start building that again. Why did they stop making them. It was the hottest tuner car

that isn't like that car, that FTO thing you posted is a Nissan Silvia S14mc.

it was a wee-bit expensive

I know it was expensive but couldn't they just make like base models without all the interior luxuries and just a high power engine. They could make NA, Turbo, and TT models.

I saw those pics about 2 years ago or something like that, I think the green one is hideous, the white one looks ok except for the grille and I think it looks a lil too Celica-ish.
Not that the Celica is ugly, it isn't but why make your top of the line sportcar look like your midlevel-sportscoupe?
I'd go with the Z based on it's looks but when it comes to power and bulletproof internals in the engine, you gotta luv what they did to the Supra engine.

They need to make all the Z's TT stock, then the Z would be the true playa it should've been from the start.

I used to like the RSX and still do. I go to clubrsx.com sometimes jus to see what is happening. On veilsideusa.com they have the mirrors displayed and MSRP, but then again that's not a store...

That is pretty much the same MK4 Supra.

that picture might have been a design layout for the 93-98 Supras and not the new1's

I don't think this pic of the new supra is all that bad:
http://www.ozsupra.qld.org/web/picturesmain/supraimages/mark5/images/Mark5_04.jpg
Although, I must agree that some of the others are quite ugly.

I seen a black 350Z for the first time last week - it was quite nice. There's not many around where I live, obviously. Everyone who owns real sports cars around here has vettes.

REAL sports car!? Jesus, man grow up and except the fact the Z is a REAL sports car (it is like 10k less than the vette).

I can't believe how moronic some of the comments in here can get.

To quote myself, I was stating that the 350Z is a real sports car. "Everyone who owns real sports cars around here has vettes.", implying that they do not buy anything else. There are not many 350Zs around where I live - considering I just seen the first one last week, this would be quite an indication of that. In other words, when someone around here buys a 'real sports car', they always choose a vette, not a 350Z, not a Supra, not a Viper - always a Vette.

Does this clear things up? :) I really fail to see what I wrote that indicated anything other than this.

Also, I think the 350Z is $15k less than the vette, whether you compare the top end models of both, or just the base.

Were you agreeing with me?

Sorry about that Jason, I took your post wrong. Also, your second post clarified it a little but still would confuse someone.

That's ok. I can sort of understand how it was taken wrong, especially if read quickly. Let me reword it yet a third time, to remove any possibility of confusion:

When I said "Everyone who owns real sports cars around here has vettes", the 'real sports cars' meant cars of significant value... not a base model mustang, for instance, but sports cars that most people cannot afford, which includes vettes, 350zs, etc.

So, what I meant by "Everyone who owns real sports cars around here has vettes" is "Everyone around here who has enough money to buy a sports car out of range of the average consumer always chooses to buy a Corvette, thus 350Zs are very scarce around here."

;)
