Default Why doesn't the G35C have the problems of the Z?

It seems to me that there are way more problems with the Z than with the G35.

The only problem(s) that I can find is the grease on the window and the paint chips easily. Otherwise the G has not had the issues of the Z.

Tires are fine, no tranny problems, doesn't rattle, etc.

I wonder why? These cars do share the same chassis. Are they built on the same line?

Any thoughts???

the 4 door and the coupe are totally different platforms so they wont or shouldnt have the same problems

the g35 COUPE and the Z are basically the same platform.

Incorrect.

All 3 are based on the FM platform.
If fact, I think the G35 coupe and sedan have more in common with each other than they do with the Z.

The wheel base of the coupe and sedan are IDENTICAL, both longer than the Z.
