Why do people think G35 is a class higher than 350z?
so many people think g35... not even g35c is a class higher than 350z..
people think that just because it has infiniti badge, it's more expensive and better car..
Few days ago, I was telling a friend I was debating what to get between g35c and 350z, and she goes, but g35 is too expensive! and trust me, it's not the first time I've heard that.. :P

if you think about it along the lines of the bigger picture though, the z is more expensive than the g. I mean you're paying for LESS seats, which to me, means you have the luxury of buying a car thats more impractical. Plus some of us have another car (i don't, but i kinda wish i did), which makes the z a weekend car and thus an expensive toy, where as everyone i know with a g uses it as a their daily drive.
With that in mind, i guess i've always thought that the z and g are about the same. It just depends on what you wanted when you spent the money.

another way to argue it is that you will never get a new G for $25k of any kind, whereas you could get a base Z for that after negotiating.
i dont think that any of this reflects badly on the Z. its great value for the $ and takes out many things that some people dont want/need from the G (which, for some enthusiests, means that you really get more)

It seemed like it was more smooth plastic. At least the 350Z seemed to have some texture to it for me.
Put a 350Z and a G35 next to each other. Based just on total hieght of the G35 alone you'll probably get a 350Z. The 350Z is like 2" lower stock. It adds to the overall good looks of the 350Z.

I like em both.
Price wasn't an issue, I could have gotten the G for cheaper then what I got my Z for.
The G is designed and marketed as a more sophisticated version of the Z. Its interior, love it or hate it, has more bells and whistles then the Z. The ride is a little more cushy. It has a back seat (kinda). It can be had with a sun roof. It carries the Infiniti badge.
As far as an argument as to which one is better? That's subjective.
