G35 hands down from me....its the obvious choice and no need to even ask
G sedan was rated as one of the safest. Coupe was not but the 350Z was rated one of the deadliest. I would say the G coupe splits the difference. IMO the spectrum is due to the types of drivers the car tends to attract. G coupe insurance isn't going to be cheap but some people on this forum seem to think paying 3k per year is reasonable.

Buying a G to modify is hardly a great idea. If you get a new one, voiding the warranty is stupid. If you're doing stereo, you're making the car a target when it was far lower profile than any Honda/Acuras. Brembos were only available on the early ones and short of expensive pads its all bling factor. Aftermarkets are much nicer. To be honest the flaw behind modding is also the case w/ the Accord but the additional cost of the G makes it much more expensive.

It comes down to what you want. If you have a big 5 figure modding budget on top of buying the car, then why not get the G. If its a car that you can sell at 200k for a decent amount of money and leave stock, the Accord is a safer bet. If you're actually concerned about gas mileage...the G may not be for you. I don't get much above 23 w/ premium on my sedan which is a bit lighter than the coupe. Even doing a big roadtrip it barely creeps above 24.
