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.

view-source:2013 Nissan 370Z Coupe | Vehicle Specs | Nissan USA

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.

Dude, not to sound like a complete jerk or anything, but what part of my post didn't you understand to completely miss the fact that I am purposely comparing the A/T versions of both vehicles? Allow me to say it again "I purchased a 2013 Touring Z A/T fully loaded, I tested the 2013 3.8 Track (which as you pointed out comes fully loaded by default)." So, don't you think the 300lbs difference that I am referring to would be on the two cars I tested? Why would I post anything about being able to feel the difference on two versions of two cars that I didn't even test???? Also, what part of "Both taken directly from manufacturer websites" didn't you understand? In case clarification is necessary, this means NISSANUSA.com and HYUNDAIUSA.com, so the numbers I posted, now TWICE, are directly from those websites. I believe, YOU need to go revisit those sites and carefully read my post next time.

Lastly, thanks! I am thoroughly pleased with my purchased and have loved every mile that I have put on this car so far.
