I checked in the first gen gen coupe when I was shopping for the Z. I wasn't a fan of the styling and the interior felt very cheap to me. It just didn't feel nice or made me happy to be in it. The second one could be better, but the looks alone kill it for me. I know looks don't affect performance but it's an important part to buying a car. Looking at the Z still makes me smile which more expensive cars like the G and M don't make me do and that has intangible value to it. So the Gen may be a better value, but if it doesn't make me smile, then it's not worth it. I'd rather spend more and be happy then spend less but still a lot and then be dissatisfied. That being said, that's just me. If the Gen makes you smile and happy, then it's all good and a great deal.

I was editing my post as you wrote yours about the styling, and totally agree!!

2nd gen interior is sweet, I think I have pics in my profile, check it out, its not bad for a $30K coupe.

The top of the line one doesn't look bad. Generally the ones with no nav look aweful in that area.
