This is a front redesign render I did of the new Z Proto.

I brought down the headlight scoop design lines toward the front grille. This gives it a more 240z like appearance AND more aggressive as it flows with the design of the front hood into the grille. I think the current design almost looks like a sleepy-eyed "tired" looking car. Where as my new render here looks awake and aggressive. I also added a small "recessed" body colored grille right below the top front lip. And of course "removing" the front bottom lip or simply blacking it out.

This is the front end redesign the car deserves.

If it has 4 wheels, someone will try to put butterfly or scissor doors on it.

And probably those awful tacky eyelashes over the headlights, though I think we are talking about at least two different crowds at this point.

Looks too much like a 370Z and not enough like a Datsun.

The Singer of Zs. It's worth reminiscing of the old Zs given the retro cues.

There is nothing rice about it. 400Z Speedster. Not my thing to own a convertible, but the render looks sharp.

This is the Z I want. The shape and proportions of this are so much better. The elongated and sloped nose makes a world of difference. The silhouette/side profile of this screams Datsun Z

i really think some 10mm black fender extensions would do the look a lot of good!
