So long 370...

Very close. It was down to the wire for me between the Gen 3.8 coupe or the 370Z. It would be a drivers race, stock for stock.

Aftermarket, I would say the Gen is easier to mod and cheaper to mod. They have many tune options available, also the canned ones work well too.

370 stock is 0-60 4.7 and 1/4 mile 13.3 (from what I have read)
2013+ Genesis 3.8 0-60 is 4.8 and 1/4mile 13.5 (from what I have read)

*And yes the hyundai resale value was a determining factor in not buying one for me. Plus, its a Hyundai....

this was exactly the reasoning for me too and bought the 370. After ten months I got tired of it and kept thinking back to that 3.8 interior.

I like the 13 updated interior of Gen coupe but I guess it is personal preference but interior still seems cheaper than Z. Just closing the door, Z is more sturdy.

I still like them though. Plus your right that 3.8 sounds boss.

IMO, which is about as valuable as a wooden nickel, even the most optioned Z seemed a cheaper interior. The interior was the second most important for choosing this car. Keeping my budget in low 30's, I felt this car was the best fit for me. Again, IMO, a much better interior, all the tech you can want, all supple tan leather and most importantly the ride. It just so comfortable. Granted, not as fast a the Z but its still got some guts to it.

I dunno, i know my Z felt solid like you said but this thing is a tank. It definitely has that "thud" closing the door, nothing cheap feel about it.
