Would be a good race. They seem to trap about the same speed (~100 mph) and very low 14's just as the G35.

In my opinion, ugly little cars, but has a similar power-to-weight ratio as the G35, and has impressive amounts of torque (~280 TQ).

I give the potential to the G35, but its so close its still a drivers race.

Like Trey said, go to the track and find out

I think they are cool. My GF has a standard Mazda3 5D and it is a fun little car.

My neighbor has a MazdaSpeed3 and tried to race me (and lost, bad...) but that is not the same as N/A G.

I think he means the MazdaSpeed 3. They are pretty quick though. I think they were in Car & Driver last month or the one before

I am looking to get another car right now. It is either going to be one of those or a used G35 coupe (I also ordered a G37 yesterday too, although I can always back out of that at any time)

My wife drives the 07 G we have. I was thinking I might be able to get a great deal on a used coupe when the 08 G coupe comes out (hopefully less than 20K).

The reason I ordered (put a deposit down) on a 08 G coupe is basically because it was only 500 bucks. If I decide that I don't want it (most likely the case) I can just get my deposit back (and let another fellow G35Driver member swoop in and take it with no wait)
