See IMO the GC is BETTER than the G37 interior. Rides better and tad but quicker too. I don't think Hyundai tried to hard to make it look upscale, I think they nailed it. If anything I don't think nissan tried hard enough with the G interior. I did some serious cross shopping of the two. Again, opinions, we all know what they are like. Lol. Different strokes for different folks.

I keep wanting to jump in here but I will leave it at this. I test drove a Gen Coupe 3.8 then a G37 IPL and bought the IPL. Would I do the same now? Without a second thought.

I was looking to keep it under $35k, so the IPL was out. The fact we are comparing a GC to an IPL says something IMO. Unless the IPL interior was different from the G37 I still give the GC the nod.

I agree. The Genesis is nice but it doesn't have the quality feel of my 08 G37 or my wifes 13 Z Touring. That said, the Genesis is a nice car. I came real close to buying one myself. OP enjoy your car and

Iam on the z forum...lol. I disagree in all areas and I just sold my '13 z. Lol. Each his own. The GC RSPEC and track models are better suited to combat the z in performance, yet noticeably slower, albeit, not by much but it's evident. The model I got is the "luxury" Grand Touring Model. Still fast but it's got the 8 speed auto (like butter) with paddles, which are better than the BMW 335 IMO(drive that too). Again slower than the Track and Rspec but plenty of gitty up.

Im poor, have no taste and need to proclaim how a leser performing car is superior to the 370?

You're a good sport, and I admire your willingness to support your position no matter what. I'll give you one area where the Genesis beats hell out of the Z and the G, and that's the stock exhaust. I put a Nismo exhaust on her car, and it could still stand to be more aggresive. After I do something about my car, I might put Tanabe axle backs on hers. Enjoy your car dude

haha, thanks. Lol, I LOVE the Z, always will. I actually like it better than the GC JUST not for my wants and needs right now. It is a better SPORTS car, hands down. Better build? Maybe. Better value? Arguable, and a no (IMO) when it comes to price vs amenities. More than likely, my wife will prove herself right and when the Z35 comes out, Ill sell this and get the Z.

Add some Berk HFC's and watch what happens to the NISMO exhaust...

(it wakes right up with no drone or rasp)

If it was my car I might do that, she wasn't exactly overjoyed when I put the Nismo exhaust on her Z. LOL I actually bought the exhaust for my G37, but decided I didn't want to deal with making it fit so I put it on her Z.
