To me, there really isn't as big of a gab between the Z and the G in this area as there used to be. |
I had a 2004 G35 Coupe 6MT, then a 2008 G37 Coupe 6MT, and just got a 2009 370Z Touring Sport 6MT.
The 2004 G35 was my favorite (in it's time) but looks so dated now. If there were more revisions to the G37, I may have leased another... but didn't want the same EXACT thing again... so ended up BUYING the Z (2009 leftover). It really depends what you want. When I got my 2004 G35, I considered the 350Z... but liked the exterior of the G35 much better and thought the interior of the 350Z was pretty bad. Really, I wasn't a big fan of the 350Z in general. I got my G37 shortly before the 370Z was released... and have always said I wanted the 370Z next. The exterior of the 370Z is the best of all I've had. The interior, while it's MUCH better than the 350Z IMO.. doesn't compare to the G37 interior, which was a PERFECT mix of sport and luxury. I miss the nice seats in the G, and am not a huge fan of some of the details of the 370Z... one being the shade of orange used... (the purple and white in the G was AWESOME) and also, the huge orange ring around the tach is annoying... I'm sure I just need to get more used to the interior. Anyway... I'm going on and on... obviously, the 370Z is more for strictly sport and driving... whereas the G37 covers a lot of that, but dives a little more into the luxury and having more space (seats, etc). I do miss having a moonroof and I did really get used to having a backup camera (which will be on the 2011 370Zs). Like someone else said, the audio quality is MUCH better in the G and the exhaust sounds better, as well. I am very happy with my 370Z so far. I need to tint the windows. I may put spacers on too. I might not change the suspension at all. I used Tein S Tech springs on the G35, Tein H Tech on my G37 and also 15mm spacers on the G37... which I may put on the Z. I'm hoping I don't want to lower the Z. We'll see... |
About a month ago, I was in a similar dilemma. I narrowed it down to several cars, and the fact of having a backseat and AWD spec was making the G37 a favorable choice. However, I stuck to my guns because I really liked the body lines of the 370Z specifically and done the cross-breed sedan sports car already; i.e. 330i and WRX.
Just my own personal biased feelings..everytime I see a G37 up close nowadays, I pat myself on making the right choice for me. I really dislike the appearance compared to the Z. If I needed a DD with backseats and had a family, the G would probably win-out; but I am sure I would've talked myself into a 335x, if that was the case. :p |
the 370z is winning on a 370z forum no way !

There is no comparison to the 370z and the G37. i have driven both cars and for a daily driver you can't beat the G37. If you want a race car get the 370z.

I bought my 03 G35 C 6MT because I liked the interior, exterior, and the back seat better than the 350Z. I don't need a back seat anymore and I like the exterior of the 370Z a lot more than the G37 C. I'm also partial to 2 seat sports cars when they fit into my lifestyle. I still would have gotten the 03 G35 over the 350Z had a two seat car been practical at the time. I'm mixed on the interior as I like both of them in different ways...

if you want a fun car get the 370Z. if you want both, then you get both. :icon17: |
btw, if you have infants forget the 2-doors. they might seem fine with infant carriers but wait till a rainy day and when you're rushed to get somewhere. 2 doors are a pita.
btw, my older kid rode shotgun in my Z the other day. :p he loved it. |
I have to agree both would be great! As a former G owner I was just giving my opinion on both. I do agree family/DD is more in G territory than Z but that shouldn't be a surprise to anyone.

Btw I likes your avatar. Hahaha :tup: |
Everyday I see guys and girls in G37's eye humping my 370Z with pure envy and lust! This is a no-brainer, the Z is sooo much better than any "sporty" coupe out there.
:driving: |
i agree with the looks you get with driving the Z. I even had people coming out to look at my car. Now that I'm driving a G37 I get no more looks. I am happy with the G37 for different reasons.

"S" stand for sport package:tiphat:

i have a Z because i'm not old enough to get a G :stirthepot:

370Z for me..Owned a 2006 G35 Coupe and loved it..it looked a lot better than the 350Z at the time..Didnt care for the 350Z...but the new looks of the G37 just doesn't do it for me...Looks too "girly" in my opinion..the G35 design was a lot nicer IMO.
The back seats of the G37 doesn't really count for much...If your 6'0" or plus like me you can forget about fitting adults or kids past 5yrs old in the back..First off you won't be comfortable having to move ur seat up to squish someone back there and second if you're driving kids around, the G is not really a safe option compared to a sedan or SUV...The actual hatch space in the Z makes for ample room compared to the trunk space of the G37 coupe which is slightly smaller to accomodate the small rear seats. Whether getting a Z or G..these cars are made for fun spirited driving every now and again...its what seperates these type of cars from other vehicles...I love the raw feeling the Z and its nterior provides...its how a sports car should look and feel...Even the Ferrari 599 GTO is raw with racing seats Harness seatbelts and no radio/stereo...and thats a 3digit car....if you want comfort then a sports car is not for you...just my ::twocents: |
G37 looks boring. It's a crappy sport/luxury car compared to the BMW's and others in its price-range. Get a 370Z.

If your fine with the lack of 'features' then the Z is the better choice. |
i love my G it turns heads at every corner,,but i have 20" and eibach drop

I owned a G37 Coupe but like the 370Z better. The 370z seems somewhat more special than the G. I actually look forward to driving my Z more than I ever did my G. In my opinion, the 370 wins in the looks department, especially the rear end. The rear end stance seems wider and a lot more sportier than the G.

I had a 2008 G37S coupe, then went to a 550i then to a 370Z.
the G37 was definitely fun, with all the luxury, and it was very easy to live with. However, if you want a sports car, I'd go with the 370Z. I like the Z a whole lot better than the G. futhermore, Infiniti typically has cheaper leather compared to the Germans, my leather was wearing out in 2 years (i was the original owner). the tranny and clutch in the G is kind of similar to the Z, but way too rough to be a luxury sports car. I had tranny mount issues that were solved but it was still not very smooth. so in the end, to me the G was luxurious but lacked the quality of a luxury car and it was too rough for the luxury inside. |

Or were you mistakingly referring to your G as a sports car? |
