Sure the 350z is faster due to its weight, but car lenghts, meaning more than 1 car, is due to the drivers.
The 350z should win, but not by that much.
Sooner or later, you kids will find out its not all about speed; the fact that my ride gets noticed everywhere is a good feeling itself
Bottom point: Both are great cars with different styles in different class. Both have similar performance, with the Z having a slight advantage due to its weight.
Im still not sure why people post threads such as this one... we all know what it's gonna come down to.

BTW I hope you didn't get it for the attention...I can pull women without the aid of my car

Attention? I dont need attention. I just wouldnt wanna own a vehicle known only for performance (such as Evo's and STi's); That would give me a "Boy Racer" image, and that wouldnt reflect my personality.
Cars are like shoes; you dont see somewhere who where's Vans and skater shoes with Nike's and "Baller" shoes.

I really wouldnt mind going thread's like these if they werent filled with extreme biasm and disrespect (flame).
I really like both the G and Z, but the Z has a different image and style. If I had the money, I definately wouldnt mind owning both, but I had to go with the one that reflects me the most, and ofcourse appeals to me.

It's all a matter of taste...
Z girl - wild, daring, slightly crazy, looks good from the right angles.
G girl - sohphisticated, smooth, expensive, sensual, classy
Well, on second thought. I think the 1st pic might be more of an Altima coupe girl

i have a G, my friend owns a Z. I really fell in love with the Z but started looking at G's because they look nice too and a lot of times there are more than just 2 of us rolling around so the back seat is nice. I help my friend andrea out a lot with her son christian and there definately needs to be a baby seat for him...so the G is good for that. The infiniti dealership here is WAY more helpful to the customers and my best friend is a master tech at the BMW dealership that is the sister dealership of the Infiniti dealership...so that translated into a sweet *** employee discount deal on the car, then i get his discount on the parts, and i have free labor since he's a qualified Infiniti dealership. Things are looking good in that respect.
I love my G, don't get me wrong. I drive an hour to work every day and like the room in it and the look. It's sexy and still sporty. The Z is smaller and also very sexy. If i was going to build just a fun car for weekends with sick *** power i would get me a Z, which is probably going to be my next car. This dailer driver for a G is very nice and still quick.
Also, through state farm, not only did my insurance go down because of 4 seats, the safety rating on the G35 is higher than the Z because of the standard side impact airbags and some other stuff. Translated from 109$ a month in insurance to 72$ a month in insurance.
I love both cars.

yea thus another point being how rugid the Z is compared to the G. The developers of the cars said it best, describing the Z as a raw performance sports car and the G being the more luxurious sports oriented coupe. Bottom line you cant go wrong with both. If i had them both i would take my G to work and use as my get around fly car. And my Z as my garage project track car.

I chose the Z over the G because I liked the exterior styling of the Z a lot better than the G. Stands out a lot more.
I like the interior of the Z but I also like the G's interior.
Also I like the way the navi is set up in the Z compared to the pop-up navi in the G.
I''ll take a G for daily driving and a Z for the weekends.
Both cars are equal but it all depends on what you want, especially since the price difference isn't a lot.
