I think whoever made that used the F type as the base for the their photochop.

yeah the mirrors, fenders, hood and roof are carried over. They do have a similar fastback roofline and a rocker/lower character line so it's probably easier to massage everything to match the concept.

Genuinely surprised Nissan dropped that teaser for a 400Z. I was pretty sure Z was dead. Much as I’d love to see a new Z (world needs more affordable sports coupes) there is still time for Nissan to delay/cancel it, or go bust.

Nissan doesn’t have a problem selling cars. They had a problem balancing production with demand. They have some of the most popular vehicles in terms of sales volume, so they can be profitable if they can get back to a balance. Developing the Z won’t break them.

I like it better than the Supra styling. Looks promising depending on the prices and specs.

I chuckled when I saw the 300ZX rear lights, but then again, so many are doing light bars that maybe revisiting the older designs would work for them

Post 175 is the only render I almost like. Please don't let it look like a Fiat or a Renault..

I like the no-straight-lines rendering #174 much better than 175.

Not sure why so many of these renders seem to be based on the F Type? The 400Z is likely heavily based on the existing 370Z platform, and the overall profile is very similar. Makes more sense to start from the 370Z and then incorporate the elements from the teaser video, instead of picking an entirely different and rounder car to create an image from.
