I finaly got to test drive the Z and G35 back to back...

ill save you the cheap article...

G35 IS CRAZY!!!

i drove both and after driving them for 10miles each...i feel that the G35 is a better choice for me in the way the car feels and acts...no offence to any Z drive but i also think the G35 looks nicer...

i think the tranny in the G and Z are the same...feel the same that is...but the G's handle's a tab better...

with that said and done ... i'm waiting on delivery of my G35 coupe July 11th

 

the G has more bodyroll, youll notice that if you do some ahrd driving near a Z

 

i didnt notice much in both...then again i didnt have a chance to test them hard.

i def liked the ride of the G more than the Z... the Z is nice but not like the G. I think i like the long wheel base more than short...I took a exit from the highway with the Z and G at the same speed about 60 and the G seemed much more stable and felt like it should more...and in the Z the rear is feeling wierd...

body roll is a small problem to fix...

some JIC FLA-2 and sways from either nismo or cusco (only 2 makers of sways for out G)

 

Congrats on your upcoming new vehicle. You really cannot lose with either choice. I think the 350Z looks meaner and more aggressive. G35 coupe looks more elegant. Handling is supposed to be very similar with a slight edge to the 350Z. You will have many more options for aftermarket upgrades with the 350Z. I assume you are getting the Caribbean Blue? For 2004 the G35 Coupe will be available with Twilight Blue as an optional color. The 350Z also has a new color option, liquid aluminum.

 

thx...

i'm actually getting my G35c in Black the sig is just an awesome pic.

There is lots of aftermarket support with the Z...which can be used for the G aswell because the engine. But one thing tells me there is gona just as much support for the G as the Z is when the japanese drivers drive the G they love it! so i think this understanding will help create more support.

Also if u look at the 2003 autosalon there were many Z's in there and not 1 G35 coupe(with the expt. of the nismo)...because the Z was released much earlier so all the aftermarket tuners concentraited on the Z because they knew they could work things up for the show. But now that the G is out and the 2004 autosalon is in a good distance away i think tuners will develop tons of stuff...also when top secret says they have parts and euro parts coming for a car...usually everyone else is doing the same but just none of them are saying anything...i know for a fact that we will see tons of support for the car...because there is not 1 reason the G should not have the tuner support as the Z has.

and when there is enough support the ne hyper rev mag will come out with the G35 =) or skyline in japan...

i recently saw a r33 in NJ ...last night ....and my jaw dropped....how could they stop the production....

 

cause they wanted to make the R34
