Report & Pics: Nissan 370Z launch in Mumbai + display in various cities

preetam_KORG · 7th March 2010, 11:36

I saw the 370Z at forum too. I have to change my opinion now. Looks good in the flesh as an overall package. But the price tag is way too high IMO.

saw it on display in Forum Mall Bangalore
looks truly delicious

370 Z. Not posting more snaps as Manish has already covered it. Just a few from my side.

The Forum played host to the 370z , it was a crowd puller. Phone and digi cams galore. Here a few shots from my side.

The Nissan 370Z is a good car on Paper, but once you see it in the metal, its dissapointing to say the least. First time to see it, the first thing you notice will be the flared rear wheel arch and the massively disproportionate tyre. Then the red colour stares you in the face! For me the 370Z is a flop product.

Motion seconded brother . It is no doubt good enough with the three hundred and thirty three horses but the flared "look-at-me" wheel arches spoil it all . The front is still good but the rear looks worse than a Dacia Sandero :P

Here are a few pictures I clicked of 370Z.
Excuse the very poor quality. (Night time pics taken from phone)

YC.BALENO.CHD · 21st March 2010, 13:36

wow, looks HOT ! , im off with my camera right now !

SumitBahl · 21st March 2010, 16:27

A friend of mine was at DT mall.
He emailed me the pictures he clicked.
Here are a few better shots:

I don't know why, it feels as though the design aspect of the 370Z grows on you.
At first glance, hated it outright!
At second glance, hated it even more!
When I finally went to take a closer look, when it was on display here in Bangalore, I was absolutely disgusted with the flared rear wheel arch, the uninviting interiors, the absolutely disproportionate design and the headlamps! I started hating it so much that I did not even bother taking pics.
But somehow, I've started getting used to it now.

OT:
Its a very similar feeling to the one, when the santro was launched.
Looked like a frog and came in bright colours.
Everyone thought that it is a sheer waste.
Went on to become one of the most trusted cars in India.

Let us wait and watch what happens with the 370Z.
Will it only be a reminder to the "Z" badge or will it carve out a definite clientele in the niche segment?
Only time will tell.

As for the quality of pictures :

smalhotra_93 · 22nd March 2010, 23:13

Some from my side.

Its hideous

aparth · 22nd March 2010, 23:39

Why do you guys hate it so much?? It doesn't look that bad. Looks better than the Dezire at least

But yes, the 350Z looked way better.

Scorcher · 23rd March 2010, 00:04

Nice snaps, but then again, I'd buy a 350 anyday over the 370. It has much more character to itself. I hate the wanna-be attitude which is oozing from the 370.

OT - @smalhotra - Looks like we belong to the E series club and very much shows in the quality.
