2015 370z vs 2015 Hyundai genesis coupe r-spec

The 370Z is more like a modern porsche 944 the only differences would be a beefier over engineered platform at twice the price. Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

it's all the same. really depends on if you care about practicality and how much cash you have to spend. i bought my genesis coupe 3.8 track loaded out with every single option available for 31kOTD back in 2011 (bought a 2012 model). for the price, it couldn't be beat. it was fast, handled superbly and had all the latest tech options. The only thing i wish is that it was a bit more polished. Like I mentioned before, the tranny just didn't feel as crisp.

Pretty much this. However, I have the BK2, 2ND generation (2013+) Faster and more polished than bk1. The bk2 is MORE polished than my '13 Z. Loaded and more tech than the z. Though still not quite as quick or sharp.

Please don't compare a 370z to a porsche. if you've ever driven one, you know, they're porsches and in a league of their own.

you are right though, aesthetically, they do look quite similar.

If you've ever driven a 944 turbo? You'd know the Z is light years ahead of that car in every way.... It's also almost 2 decades older.

The only reason I brought up the porsche 944 is because someone triad to compare the 370 to a cayman and I thought they were way off base, but I stand by my statement of comparison to the 370 being an modern asian 944.

I mainly lurk to keep up with the Z, but man, I'd rather have a Z than a Porsche any day. I had a 280zx with full suspension and built motor and a minty fresh 1985.5 944 with 50k miles on it and all the options. My Z was a miles better car, and still quicker and loads more fun than the Porsche while stock. After the upgrades it blew it away in every regard as far as driving. I sold the 944 for what I had in it in about 6 months. But my old Z is still my favorite car I've ever had. The Z's have personality and character while P cars are slightly "soulless". I look forward to the next Z and hope to be in one if it's any good

While I agree with you about a 280 vs a 944 driving dynamics and fun factor a 911 is COMPLETELY different ball game in EVERY aspect.
