I test drove an Genesis 3.8 with a slushbox and liked it but wasn't going to buy a car without test driving the exact model I wanted(manual). My previous car was a tiburon and I liked it and was gonna stick with the brand but they advertised the crap out of the car on the Superbowl and still almost 2 months later did not have the cars on the lot. IRRITATING!!!! So I went and tried to look at a G35 or G37 but seeing as I wasn't in a $1,000+ suit and only in slacks with a button up shirt I didn't measure up to being helped by any of the Infiniti salesmen at the local dealer so I left. Nissan was on the same auto group lot and went to go look at a 350 as I didn't even know there was a 370. Let me start here as saying the 350 is a nice car but I don't like the front and rear bumpers and would not buy one ever. And sitting right across the door from the 350 was a yellow 370 and it really caught my eye. It looked great(would not buy yellow myself but it looked good) and you could see some of the differences between the 2 models. At the back of the showroom they had a 350 and a 370 parked next to each other so you really could get a good look at the changes that were made. I really liked what I saw and my dad was there and thought it looked good but he was still set on buying himself a Genesis. So I set up an appointment to test drive it. Test drove it and almost immediately forgot about the Genesis. Gave Hyundai like 30 days to get the manual and they never could so I ended up with a 370z base with sport in Pearl White for a great deal(first color choice was PG but none within 100 miles and didn't want to pay for them to truck it) I also was interested in a Camaro RS/SS but from the pictures the outside looked amazing but the interior was less desirable. I don't regret not getting back seats or a summer car even though I now have to get a beater for a few months of the year. I love this car.
