    Tell me, where is the 350Z sedan? I mean, the G35 is nothing but a "wannabe" 350Z (even though they cater to two different markets), so there must be a 350Z sedan, right?

    Lemme guess, you think the Nissan Murano and the Infinti FX35 are the same too?
    Ignorance? Calm down, we're not arguing here.

    I wasn't saying all of that. What I was talking about, or trying to say is that the G and Z both have the same motor/drivetrain but alot of people always compare both, and the Z always wins. No matter if its on the track or street, the 350 is a better car all around IMO. No matter what you say, stock for stock the G will never beat the Z. And a Z has always been a roadster, ever since the first gen Z's came out. Sure they did a 2+2 z32 but that doesn't mean Nissan was going to make the same mistake on the z33.

    So what? ONE MORE TIME: THEY ARE MARKETED TO TWO DIFFERENT MARKETS. The G is heavier, has better interior, looks better, and sacrifices a little performance TO APPEAL TO A HIGHER CLASS MARKET.

    I ask you again: Do you think the Murano and FX are the same too? I mean, they are shaped similiar, and they both have a VQ35.

    all the "looks better stuff" is totally opinion based. some people want that sports car feeling.. which the Z delivers.. and especially on the outside.. i HATE the front of a g35.. but the side/back are sexyyyyy. it's all opinion based. but factually the Z is a better all around vehicle.

    It is better as a performance vehicle. It is not a better "all around" vehicle.

    I have ridden in both. And they're really not that much diffrent. Sure the G has alittle bit more fansier accessories, but this kid isn't looking for all that. He's looking for what will help him get laid and maybe have alittle fun with.

    Your opinion is that the G35 is better, ok. Thats cool, but "IMO" I think the Z is.

    I ask you again: Do you think the Murano and FX are the same too? I mean, they are shaped similiar, and they both have a VQ35.
    Im sure just like the Z and G they have some diffrences. We're heading in another direction, stick to the subject.

    Actually they are two completely different cars. The Murano is built on the Maxima platform and the FX is built on the G sedan platform. The G and The Z (Along with the FX and new EX XUVs) are all built on the "front midship" platform. The point is even though they are on the same platform and share the same engine/drivetrain, they are NOT the same and don't perform the same.

    And if you think a stock 350Z pulls more chicks than a stock G35 Coupe, you are living in your own world where the color of the sky is not blue.

    You're getting pretty old, so I can understand you not being able to read my post, the way they're supposed to be read. How about you put on your glasses so you can read things the way I do! 20/20.
    Where in my post did I say that a 350 could pick up more chicks than a G35? Chris, not sure what you're trying to prove here, but it aint working. Both cars, get the job done. This guy might be wanting more performance than luxury, he's not 30+ so im sure he doesn't have to worry about all those extra little buttons and not being able to pick up chicks.

    Made some changes. :p

    I'm trying to prove that you are wrong and I am doing it. the G is not a "wannabe" 350. They are two different cars that cater to two different markets. And yes, you made a statement about pulling ho's.

    And what does age have to do with anything? That just proves you have nothing to add. Everytime you run out of stuff to say you make an age wisecrack.

    Of course, I expect nothing less from a KID driving a WRX.

    A wannabe Z when it comes to performance.

    And pulling ho's? Even someone with a Honda can do that. When someone goes out looking for girls he shouldn't be trying to look for beat up tunnels... I brought up the age, not cause of you. Didn't think you would take it like that. I respect older people, when they're not trying to act like they're in their mid 20's again.

    And im turning 21 next year, not going to be a kid for long.

    No they aren't that much different but the i like to make this comparison
    The 350 is uglier but faster-comperable to a camaro
    The G35 is sexier but heavier, better interior-comperable to a 04 GTO.
    Camaro's and Gto's argue over that all the time..just like Z's and G's. Same motor..ones faster, ones sexier.
    Get the G35.
