I rented a G37 while my Z was getting its oil cooler. The G37 has a much more refined ride and is very quiet. However, it isn't as responive as the Z and the extra weight makes it significantly slower off the line. I felt that I lost "road feel" in the G and the steering didn't seem as responsive.

Other than the obvious appearance and passenger capacity, the biggest difference to me is the more disconnected feeling with the road.

G was about 10K more then what I payed for my car. And like others said the Z is much better looking, with that said I really wanted a G37 Sedan 6spd but once again I was looking at $40K+ VS the 34 I payed for my Z.

The Z is just so cute and seats are so fuzzy and cuddly. It feels like the interior wraps around you like a nice cozy blanket.

The G37 is ok too.. but it's not as warm and fuzzy :/

when i get old, like 45, i'm gonna get a g coupe and paint it yellow :happydance:

I looked at a G37 coupe when shopping for cars and chose the 370X for the following reasons:

1. I was coming from a 2 seat sports car and thought I might want a back seat but after seeing how useless the back seat was in the G I figured I would never ask someone to try to sit back there.
2. Weight! The G is damn heavy!
3. I actually preferred the interior design of the Z over the G.
4. Styling, I kept noticing G coupes on the road and it would always take way to long to determine if it was an Altima coupe or an Infinity.
5. The closest Infinity dealer is an hour and a half away from me and Nissan is 15 minutes away.

So I take it most guys answering this thread is in their 20s or early 30s ???

Im 27 and have a Z, good call.

I actually test drove a g37s and probably wouldve bought it as well. It was definitely as fast as the 350z I had at the time and handled great. I loved the interior and it had navigation, so that was a plus. It also had a major scratch/gouge(sp?) in the door which I did not like and the dealer wanted nothing to do with fixing it, so I passed. Found a leftover 370z and got a good deal.

Previous to this, I did like that Z's were lighter and felt more responsive to G's. Its not to say that I wont own a G in the future though.

I'm 21. Honestly, if they were the same price, I might have ended up with the G37 coupe since it's more practical as a DD.

They are practically the same price now.

I was looking at cars back in January, for used 09 370Z or 09 G37 coupe both 7AT. The G37's were around like $32k for one in good condition and I got my Z for $26k. That was a significant difference for me and one of the reasons my parents even let me get the Z over the G. :icon17:

indeed, i'm 30. to young to drive a buick just yet

HAHA I turn 45 in August ..and Buick had some mean cars ...lol

I went from a G to a Z. I have multiple cars so room isn't an issue for me. I don't need a bunch of tech in my car. My G had all this tech and it was going to waste because I didn't use it. The sport package on the Z is way more serious, wheel-wise. Cornering is what really turned me on to the Z. Lane change performance is near identical acceleration is similar. The only things the G had over the Z is.
1. It was more stable over 130mph
2. The exhaust had more of a true sports car sound than the Z. The. Z sounds whimpy by comparison.

Anyone who says the G isn't a real sports car hasn't driven one to the limit. Its a sick handling car. Especially for its size weight and convenience. But the Z still trumps it in handling. You just can't beat the short wheelbase for cornering performance. Either car is a good choice. I just prefer the Z, all factors considered.

I love the tech stuff in the G. I wanted something sporty enough while being comfortable. I don't think the fiance would have liked sitting in the Z.

I'm 27 and very happy with it. I really like the Z, but the G was a better fit for what I was looking for.

Kids and there parents buyin them z's
