Nah, gotta fit golfbags.

2022 Nissan Z Coupe

This car reminds me of when American car companies first discovered they could do retro styling, before they either abandoned it(GM) or figured out to make it work (mustang, dodge).

It just looks off to me. I much prefer the Z32 styling, but even the Z31 and Z33 look much better to me.

NY Auto Show canceled (damn Delta variant).

Wonder if this car's debut will remain the same day?
