My buddy just got a Gen Coupe. He seems to like it, but I don't see the car giving him the allure my Z gives me at all. I still get chills driving my car after owning it a year. Something that made me feel kinda bad is when he threw a party the same day he got the car. Friends that were invited over expecting to see his new ride kept pointing mine out saying "Is that it? It's bad ***!" and he would laugh each time and say "No! The Hyundai!"

I see Genesis Coupes around a lot more, so they're fairly common. Not saying the 370z is super rare, but it definitely turns heads enough. I got a nod from a guy in an R8 once, and another time was told by a cop he thought my car was a Porsche (just passing conversation, I wasn't in trouble yet haha).

Maybe I'm being a bit sensationalist about it, but the car is just so damn awesome.

The one thing about the Genesis that appealed to me was the interior. It has a real eye catching style. The 370z interior is pretty bitchin too though.

I mean, you *are* asking in a 370z enthusiast community, so these answers are going to naturally be biased. If you're really that torn then you should test drive both.

The very first reply to your question said it best imo. Nissan has been designing sports cars for almost half a century, Hyundai is *just* emerging from the "budget" car manufacturer.
