Default 370Z vs G37S coupe

i know this topic has been beaten to death, but i'm not talking about performance differences here. with a fully loaded 370Z comes in at the similar price as a similar equipped G37S coupe, for those of you cross shopped the two, what made you choose the Z? let's say number of seats isn't the deciding factor here.

i'm thinking the same way. imo, by offering the sedan version, it actually dilutes the G37 nameplate a bit.

Post-concept G37coupe was a ID mistake.

If I was 10 years older, the G would have appealed to me, but fortunately im 25 and still have to have my speed fix daily.

For me though, it was a combination of finding the Z sexier and more rare. Also, it was the one car in my price range that made me feel like I wasn't compromising.

At 55 I simply laugh at this thread. Where did they get the money at 25? From a bank loan officer?

This car was made for guys like me. I own it, not the bank.
