ahh... so we kissed and made up???
Why do you two think that a bunch of other Z owners around the country even care about our petty little differences...
enjoy your investments... and be happy...

well, only reason the g35 is better than a Z is because the G35 is rwd (much like most infinitis) and the 350z is fwd (like all other nissan cars).
but the thing about the Z that beats the g35 is that it has true dual exhausts while the g35 only has a single exhaust split into 2 mufflers (rice).
i do admit the g35 has better interior, especially with those factory recaro seats, but the 350z has an overall better design even though the material is cheaper. the 350z interior looks really good. a bit minimalistic, but thats how i like it.
i only wish nissan would come out with a rwd Z, or heck even an awd Z. i'd gladly pay more for anything other than fwd...

This has to be sarcasm or someone just joking around.
isn't it funny how when somone post something as outlandish as that... that we all assume he is kidding...
now wouldn't it be funny if he wasn't and truly didn't know...
hard to prove...now all he has to do is come back and say that he WAS kidding...

are you guys dumb? the 350z is FWD!!! like the maxima, like the altima, like the sentra!!! NISSAN does NOT make rwd vehicles!
only their luxury division Infiniti makes rwd vehicles...
its just like Nissan Murano (FWD) and the INfiniti FX35/45 (RWD).
nissan is cheaper so it makes FWD while Infiniti being luxury and more expensive gets the (RWD)
why do you think the G35 costs more than a 350z? You think its because of the stupid leather? or the Recarro seats? NO WAY, its because it has RWD...
don't you guys research your stuff before you make a purchase?
Also, don't even get me started on rwd.... you guys remember the 300zx back in 96? That was the only rwd car Nissan has ever made! Period. Look how it turned out? They discontinued it because Americans don't really like rwd because it isn't as safe in the rain as fwd..
and yes, i do own a 350z. its twin turbocharged too putting 325horses to the wheels. Installed and Tuned at Chevron gas station.

I'm the "Z bashing G35 owner" according to my friend DJ. I just found out about this post from my brother, and I just want to make a few things clear.
1. I never said what DJ said. I love the 350z, I have a model of it in my room, and have wanted the car for 4 years. I bought a g35 b/c I wanted a more luxurious car and back seats.
2. The 350z is faster than the g35. The specs obviously prove this, so why would I say otherwise.
3. All I said to DJ was, if you want a car for performance (which DJ cares much more about), you should get a Z. If you want a car for luxury and speed, get a G35. I think there's no denying a stock Z is faster than a stock G35, and a G35 is much nicer and luxiorious inside than a Z.
4. The day he got the Z, I drove up to his house and told him how happy I was that he got that car that he really wanted, and that our cars are basically brothers. I also have silver, and he has charcoal, which was my preference over silver.
5. Anyone who bashes a Z that owns a G35, or vice versa, is an idiot. The cars are built on the same platform.
DJ, you're an idiot for making this post. This is your 6th car in 6 years, be happy with it and dont come on the board to get reassurance that you made the right decision, and make me look bad at the same time. Thanks.
