I went and looked at one last night. It has the same nose as the slr, which I must say is awesome. The rest of the car I don't know. I had a bit of temporary insanity and was considering trading my NSX for the 350.The car had a 7 speed auto trans(salesman said it was an industry first) and there is a 3 month waiting list at sticker price! Never thought of myself in a MB But this was tempting, but doesn't command he attention that a NSX does.
