You do know a French guy is running Nissan? Well, I have a picture of a car
that just might have been the inspiration for the new 350Z!
Ahem, the 1997 Peugeot 806! Check out my picture:

It's got a few similar design elements. But probably not likely they copied
the design! Still, I could go for that open teak deck on the Z (not!).
I have a few Z pics that my daughters' friend gave to me, he was part of the
press contingent at the Detroit Autoshow early in the year:
