One of the best tweaks to the roadster was making it not look ugly with the top up. It used to have that great line from the nose and then it dropped right at the 'rear window' area. Now they have pulled the edge back so it fades much smoother into the trunk area. Not nearly as abrupt. Good note, though! Thanks for commenting. HOPEFULLY the GT-R is soon to come....that will be epic. Thanks again! That's a great question, CobaltInfinity. One of the best tweaks to the roadster was making it not look ugly with the top up.

So the NISMO looks like a Porsche and the droptop looks like a Z4 roadster when the top is down, but what does it look like with the top up? The soft cloth 350Z looks like a VW Beetle with the top up, which was vomit-inducing...at best. Did Nissan fix that little issue with the 370Z droptop? When do you get behind the wheel of a GT-R? Bradley, once again I am extremely jealous.
