Best bet, buy a Fisker Karma and you will never have to worry about anybody having them.

Having owned both:
The G35 interior, even as aged (sorry, we all know its true) as it is, still beats the 1st gen GenCoupe's interior. Within four months (granted those four months were NOTHING but track days/canyon runs) the steering wheel was worn out where my hands were most commonly placed. however, the GenCoupe has bluetooth standard, the sound system is awesome, the seats hug you somewhat nicely.
Exterior-wise, the GenCoupe has a more modern look. The G35 (specially the coupe) body has not aged too well.
Performance-wise. I upped the boost on the GenCoupe, deleted the secondary cats, and did an airbox mod, and it felt amazing. The G35 may have more ponies out of the box , and honestly it feels faster out of the hole, but the GenCoupe took turns A LOT better to me than the g35. Sound wise stock for stock the G wins, but modded the GenCoupe eats the g35 alive. They are both heavier than i'd like them to be IMO.
Drivetrain: GenCoupes are known to have ehhh trannies. Redlining second would always have a slight notch going into third. The G35 is smooth.
Warranty: I bought my GenCoupe i'd say 60% because of that. 100k warranty,? Yes please. With the G35s, well you only need to read the forums to see what the common issues are.
Edit: I put 20,000 miles in my Gencoupe, all track/canyon within 8 months, and not once had a single issue.
Overall: I'm going to say GenCoupe. Not trying to start anything here lol, just giving my opinion and feedback on both cars.
