sad thing happened last week. i totalled my Z. i've only had it for 17 months and now its gone. time for a new car but i can't decide which car to get. i loved the Z, except for tranny grinding and tire feathering. should i get another Z or try something new, like a g35 coupe? i would appreciate some suggestions. i need to get a car soon.

 

the only thing i can suggest is for you to take a g35 for an extensive test drive. only you can decide which one is better for you.

i took the z coupe, z roadster, and g35 coupe for test drives. while my head said the g35 was the most practical, my heart said the z roadster. my heart won out. is the z roadster the best car? maybe not for everyone, but it is for me.


heavy stuff, huh?

 

haha, true. i guess iam gonna have to test drive the g35 coupe. iam still leaning toward the Z but who knows.

 

The ride on a coupe is alot different, you will feel alot less of the road. Other than that I personally don't think there's much difference, though I do hate the Foot E-Break on the coupe.

 

Both are really nice cars. The biggest advantage of the G are two rear seats. It also has a much more supple ride...which costs a bit in the handling department. Looks are subjective...and equipment is pretty similar if you compare a touring Z vs G35c.

I know the 05 g35 coupe with the sport package has 295Hp now insted of the 280 like on the 03 & 04

Dose the Z get a bump HP as well this year ?

 

I would say the Z!
I think most of the problems should be fixed by now, especially if you are getting an '05

 

Well it all depends on what you are looking for. I mean you already know how the Z drives and feel. If you want more lux feeling or the backseat then go with G35. If you want the really sport car feel go with the Z then.

 

thanks for all the suggestions!

 

can't be wrong with G/Z
