Oh, further, I do miss the intimacy of the Z, the small 2 seat feeling of that closed cockpit. I've owned A LOT Z's the 370 was my 2nd favorite behind the 300. The 240 was fun but slow in reality. 350 was great, had the Touring 6 speed, nav, but it handled like my now 3.8 without the power. Plus, the interior, really? In 2007 when I got it it was just then tolerable for $34k. I drove a few 370's with auto, nav, top of line, it was CLOSE to the 3.8 I bought but still didn't give me everything I really wanted and it was like 8 grand more. THe ONLY THING I miss on my 3.8 vs my Z is the HID lights. Yes, for $1000 more I could have gotten the "Ultimate" 3.8 that has the HIDS, but the ONLY trim you can get that in black leather. Blah!! The interior in the 3.8 GT POPS with the tan.

Edit: the Z is WAY sexier than the 3.8 by a huge margin. I almost didn't buy the Genesis, it's kinda ugly. But the interior is far superior. I almost didn't buy it but considering I drive the car and don't sit there looking at it...lol
