First Look: 2009 Nissan 370Z

The rumors have proven to be true. Nissan’s redesigned Z will be called the 370Z. Nissan hasn’t released any specs, but we’d assume it will pack the 3.7-liter V-6 found in the G37. In that car the engine produces 330 horsepower. 

What we can talk about are the 370Z’s looks: immediately striking is the higher roofline and a truncated rear. The proportions look a bit odd, but we’ll have to reserve final opinions until we see it at the L.A. Auto Show in a few weeks. The Z goes on sale in early 2009. More photos below.
