In Reply To	the 300ZX was a result of evolution, the 350Z was half-assed (n/m) posted by LJZTT on November 27, 2010 at 09:06 PM
Message	the 350Z (and 370Z) fit better than the Z32. The Z32 is the shortest, has the most drastically changed roof line, most angled windshield, etc etc etc. That doesn't stop the Z32 from being stunningly beautiful, I'm just saying that I don't think it has as much to do with evolution as you're suggesting. (And before anyone goes thinking that I desire a 350Z, I don't... I just understand that it was a step back in the direction of what the Z car was supposed to be. I still yearn for my next Z32.) "When you say this, will you be surprised if your arguments seem to move about instead of staying put? And will you accuse me of being Daedalus who makes them move, though you are yourself much more skillful than Daedalus and make them go around in a circle? Or do you not realize that our argument has moved around and come again to the same place? [...] Or do you not remember?" - Socrates
