Default Question for Z owners...

Would you pay $100 more per month to have a G35coupe? Discuss, as that is a situation I'm in...

[B]Definitely not! The G35 coup lacks the style!

No. Most 350Z owners could have had the G35c, but decided they wanted a sports car. With that being said, I would not let another $100 stand in the way of me having the car I truly wanted. So if you want a luxary car instead of a sports car and can afford the extra $100 then get the G35c.

I agree with King Tut. IF the Z was $100 more per month than the G35C, I would have still gotten the Z. It's up to you. Just get what you really want and don't let $100 a month stand in the way unless it really is a big obstacle for you financially.

Default “$100 more per month” is a bit misleading.

The difference between a 48 month loan and a 60 month loan may be $100, but the car will still cost the same. Interest rates also effect payments.

Compare the G35 to the 350Z. Decide which you want. Shop for price not payments.

Not having a convertible G35 made the difference for me. Have to have a drop top.

Not likely...People here got the Z because they preferred it over the G and vice versa...

No, I looked at both, interior is nicer on G however I didn't want back seat. The exterior of the Z looks 10x better IMO. G also felt too big, I like the feel of the Z, much more like a sports car. Z all the way.

Interior comfort and the ability to carry passengers: get the G.

Performance edge: get the Z.


Personally, I'd pey $100 bucks more per month to get the Z, if that were the question instead.

I like them both. If I HAD to have a back seat I would go for the G35. Fortunately my kids are almost grown and I got what I really wanted.......the Z.

Taxi that G around...get your buddies to pitch in for gas.

100 dollars will pay off somehow.

I agree with everyone on here, definitely make your decision based on what you really want and what will make you happy vs. sweating $100 per month. If you really have to have back seats (kids, etc), then perhaps your decision is kinda being made for you. If not, then just get what you want, they're both great cars in their own right.

I was actually gonna buy the G35C when a customer came in and traded in a 350Z...I took that Z out for that weekend, and a few days later, I went to a Nissan dealership and picked one up....

The only Skyline I would have gone for instead of the Z is the GT-R.
