New 370z or used g37?
 

For kicks, I just decided to do a quick Carmax and cars.com search for an Infiniti G37.

It appears the average price for a used Infiniti G37 Journey, with under 10k miles, is about $35,000 and base g37s around $33,000.

I found that interesting because it seems the new 370z Touring, will be about $34,000.

Has any of you considered a used g37 instead of the new 370z? :confused:

And in your opinion, what are the fundamental differences between the two classes?

G37 for the "luxury" feel... The 370Z if you want a "Sports-Car" :)

Gotta ask yourself some questions first,

a. Do you need 4 seats?

b. Do you need a bigger trunk?

c. Would you give up a little bit of luxury for more performance.

If you answer NO to all those questions, then you should def get the 370Z. :driving:

I say go 370z if your not near marriage!
But if your looking for that someone and want to get kids within 5 years.
Go for the G37 more of a daily driver no?
More room, probably more comfortable cause its luxury, but it's gonna cost you weight and speed!
Up to you man, I'm still young so I'll be with the true sports car 370z! :D

Well I am young, but I'm also married with a kid lol. We have a 2nd bigger car (04 Maxima), and I'm not gonna be racing or nothing, just A a few show mods and a few light performance mods. My big thing is, I don't wanna pay out the arse for maintenance and repairs. I know the Nissan 370z would be alot cheaper to maintain than an Infiniti g37, no??

With the base price of $29, 943 this should be a NO brainer. Props = Nissan = :tup: for a great starting price and keeping it below 30K .

The feel should be different between the two. You're talking sub 3300lbs on the 370z and over 3700lbs on the G37, with essentially the same hp output. Personally, I am in it for power/weight, and 1hp/9.72lbs (approx) for the Z is pretty dang good. :tup: So keep that in mind. I absolutely DO NOT need this car to be practical in any way, shape or form, the hatch access is gravy.

S.

Let's just hope that they keep it that way and haven't simply set it there to generate sales before the crazy markups :icon17:
Anyway, do you know if the autos going to cost extra on top of that or if it'll simply be a matter of choice?

I think you will have a choice of the 6sp manual or the 7sp auto for no extra cost. Much like the current Z if i'm not mistaken. But your right they may have set the price sub $30k just to attract buyers, then charge extra for everything. Wasn't side airbags a $600 option in the 350z? Ridiculous.

Im selling my G 6k miles on it pm if ur interested

y are you selling the g37?

i like it but looking for something a little sportier, the G is a heavy car, looking for something i can toss around a little easier and the new z wil do that for me

"Never give up on your dreams!"

Yeah your right. I remember test driving the g37 a few months ago, and even though it had all that horse power, it felt a lil lazy. For a refresher, I test drove a 2008 350z today (brand new, still on lot...dealers are trying HARD to get rid of these) and it was alot more agile, responsive, and easier to chuck around. had a huge blind spot over my left shoulder though...

yeah it feels lazy at low rpms, it takes alot to get it moving but when its up to speed it really goes, personally peformance wise i think the g37 is great highway car it pulls and pulls all the way to speed limiter, the 370z with much less weight should be good at any speed though and thats why i want it

370Z will def be a lot agile than the G37. I love lighter cars. I thank Nissan for keeping the weight of the new Z equal or less than the previous Z.

The g37 seems to be a more luxary car while the z is a drivers car. The reason I am chosing the z is because it will be a better track car and probably cheaper to modify.

If you want to tame the road, get the z but if you want to show the road who is sexy, then get the g. :driving:

Ha. I actually think the 370z and even the G35 looks alot better than the G37. I dunno what it is, but it seems everything was smoothed over and tone down on the G37.

As AK said. depends on your needs.

For me,,, I will get the 370z. Yes I am married. I dont have plans to have a kid for now. If my needs, during time changes, that probably will, because you never know what will happen next, I will consider, imo, a sporty SUV (used for sure), like an FX35 :). But right now, I will definitively go for the 370z.
Always work by your needs and standards. ;)
