However, regarding the weights, I decided to check again and imagine what I found:

2013 Gen Coupe 3.8 Track A/T - 3483-3613
2013 370z Touring A/t - 3314

Both taken directly from manufacturer websites.

Hyundai has two models that comparing to our sport that can be easily used. The R-spec @ 3433 which is 130lbs heavier than our manual sport. Or the track auto which is 3483 without nav.
The 3613lbs you're giving is the hyundai gensis coupe 3.8 grand touring auto to full spec.

Excuse me for being off by 1 LB.

Oh and if you check my sig you will notice that I purchased the A/T so, no excuses good sir.

Lastly, I do agree with you on one thing, the engineering, tuning and transmission in the Z is better. Guess that's why I'm here now...
You seriously need to go to NISSANUSA.com and check a 2013
You must be on a rogue 2009-2011 website because the new 2013 Z touring weighs 3353lbs in manual. That new fascia lights and such weigh the car down more, along with the 12 oil cooler. the weight you gave was for an 09-11 touring manual, no nav. Us base model guys with sport see 3269 manual and 3280 auto.
Recheck your stats.

The weight you gave for the genesis coupe 3.8 is a touring/auto/nav.
The R-spec manual is 3430 the track manual without nav is 50lbs heavier @ 3480lbs

GLAD YOUR A NEW Z BUYER THOUGH. Welcome to the club.
