Nissan 350Z/Infiniti G35 Coupe

What are their differences, and what are their similarities? Which one would you drive and why?

infiniti, because it's a luxary car.

well the nissan will be sport oriented and the g35 4 door will be luxurious along with the two door which is supposed to be real nice for the g35. id take the g35 coupe bc it looks much nicer than the Z, though i could really care less about luxury.

similariaties: basically everything except interior. infinity hass the nice interior while the Z has the uh you know . . . nissan interior

also the suspension will be a bit more squishy on the infinitis bc its more comfort oriented.

G35 Coupe. I like the looks much better. Interior quality looks and feels about the same to me. The Infiniti has a better warranty and a back seat (kinda cramped for me, a 5'7" dude, but at least it's there for emergencies) which I'd totally exchange for the 7 bhp advantage in the 350Z.

Are there any weight differences between the two?

 

[Dinan55]

Yep, the Nissan weighs 3150 lbs and the G35 (coupe) is 3435 lbs.

-G35C has longer wheelbase
-G35C has softer springs
-350Z has 7 more horsepower
-G35C has a decent trunk and back seats
-350Z is 200-something lbs lighter (depending on how they are configured)

I would (and did) take the G35 Coupe over the 350Z. I took it because of the styling, the luxury, and the increased practicality. I feel the performance sacrifice is worth it if the car is going to be your daily driver (especially since I don't feel like I "sacrificed" anything.
