does having only 2 seats get in the way of anything

I'm seriously considering buying the 2011 370z and it bothers me that it only has two seats, does this inhibit anything or is it worth it?

It's worth having an excuse to not let people bum rides off of you

Seriously though I have no issue with it.

Just depends on your situation. I live alone, so there's rarely a passenger anyway.

This is more of a question for yourself. Can you handle not fitting bigger things into your car/not dragging around the children. The Z can handle a lot of stuff in certain situations. I fit myself and three other people in my car when my friends needed someone to come get them from the club. If you cannot handle having limited space and still want something sporty check out the Mustang or Evo, I will not mention that god forsaken chevy :/
Me personally I love having only two seats, usually don't have to worry about your car becoming a taxi

Gets in the way of the lameness associated with driving a sedan

If you live by yourself then you will have no worries. If you have a family then it will be a problem. As you already know it's a 2 seater, so don't plan on hauling any furniture's or anything big.

If you don't already have kids or don't want any, it's a great excuse to hold off!

It's actually pretty spacious, well for me at least. The 350z had very limited space with the stabilizer bar in the middle but the 370 has enough room to fit a good amount of junk.

You can fit about a body in the trunk as long as it's not 300lbs+. Typical groceries. No big storage boxes because the trunk won't close.

Of course it inhibits things dude, it's two seats less than most cars.

As for whether it's worth it? That can't be answered for you by people on a forum. It depends on your particular lifestyle.

If it bothers you? Why consider it. Bother is a strong word to even consider a car. Why don't you consider a G37s or IPL coupe?
