My wife got a new STi last weekend, and I have the 40th Anniversary 370Z. I wouldn't pick an STi over a Z unless I needed the functionality and/or AWD.
I feel much more connected to the road & car when I drive the Z. The interior quality is a full step up in the Z, which adds to the driving experience for me. That said, I think the STi 6-speed shifts nicer.
You can probably tell I care more about the driving experience more than the actual numbers. If the opposite were true, my choice of cars would be different as well.
