2013 nissan 370z debuts with minor changes ugly wheels

We just got our first look at the 2013 Nissan 370Z, set to be unveiled at the Chicago Auto Show on Wednesday. The changes are brief but good god, what did they do to those wheels?

Nissan lists the 2013 changes as

Refreshed front fascia with vertical LED daytime running lights
Revised 19-inch aluminum-alloy wheels (Sport Package equipped models)
New 18-inch wheels for 370Z Coupe
Red-finished brake calipers (Sport Package equipped models)
Dark-finish fuel gauge trim
Euro-tuned shock absorbers (Sport Package equipped models)
And two new exterior colours – Magma Red and Midnight Blue

Hopefully the car is just as good to drive as the previous Z cars, but if I ever bought one, I’d have a nice shipment from TireRack waiting at home, and a buyer lined up for those tacky ninja-star-esque 18s.

Put the wheels on the QX. They will totally fit the styling, then.

I own a 2010 370z convertible with the sport package and the wheels are awesome. These are ugly as sin. Car still looks nice though. However, I'm a rag top car guy, so the coupe doesn't do it for me.

Gabby Petito Buick was cool when my granddaddy had one.

Jkross22 Their origami design looks ridiculous, but not nearly as bad as moronic ideas like proprietary screws, w-i-i-i-i-de screens and subscription services for heated seats. BMW went from being an aspirational brand a turd in the punch bowl. This brand has made the best case for cars they haven't made in 15+ years. Their cars looked, sounded and drove better then.
