Oh... n not to ruffle your feathers, but quit making comparisons from the Genesis to the Z. If you're gonna make an appropriate comparo. Make it with the Q60 coupe or G37.

The Gen will NEVER HANDLE or have the driving dynamics of ANY 2 SEAT sports car let alone the Z. With a 16 hp deficit an automatic Z demolishes auto Gen's. They only compare acceleration in manual transmission.
Steering feel, seating position, seat contouring for serious driving, Rev limiter bouncing, DRM/SRM, AKEBONO, Rays wheels, ALUMINUM suspension and many other internals are far more superior to the gen, that's why they practically give u a nav for free. They know what they lack. Even the brembos on the Gen need more than just pads n RB600.

You forget unlike everyone else here I know the gencoupe inside out. Nobody here cares to give it respect. I do... I like the gen a lot...but...
It's NO 370Z. Not even a little bit. If you think they're close in performance it's cuz you've never pushed both of them.

The Z needs Koni yellow swifts n an alignment n ur good.

Gen needs the high end stance or ark suspension set up just to compete with a Z.

Keep it real mah man
