1.) how well does it handle?
2.) In performance wise, does it have a chance against the z?
3.) Coupe Or Sedan? I love both =]
4.) most important. Does girls dig it? haha most of my friends have the S2000, and it get alot of attention from people on the street. doesn't matter what age group.

1) I have a stock 03 sedan with the aero package (17 inch rims and sport suspension). Unfortunately, in my part of the world most of the roads are straight for as far as the eye can see so the car never gets pushed near it's handling limits. I've never driven a Z but I've read from various sources that Gs can out handle Zs though I've got nothing to base that statement on and am not sure of how different the 07 z is from previous years.
2) 2007 Z's have the new engine which I think is the same as in the new Sedan. The weight is very close between all 3 cars. The 2007 G sedan and Z should be faster than the 2007 coupe (coupe has the older but still excellent engine).
3) 2007 sedan vs 2007 coupe. On paper the sedan should be better all around as it is a redesign based on the new platform with the new engine. That being said, the 2007 coupe is based on the older proven platform and engine... the bugs should be worked out by now.
4) Yeah, it's a magnet until they see the dork behind the wheel
My advice would be to test all three.

1. The G (coupe or sedan) handles very well stock, drop it on some tein basics and hotchkis sways and it'll feel like its on rails.
2. Stock for stock, the Z against G coupe, the Z takes it because it is fairly lighter. The Gsedan would give the Z a better run because it's lighter than the coupe by about 100 lbs.
3. SEDAN!!! but i'm biased. I love my sedan, and especially when you mod it, you dont see too many modded Gsedans on the road.
4. Yes the girls love it. My girl happens to love the backseat more than anything. But i have people from all ages giving me thumbs up and props for my car.
New or used the G is a great/solid car that will last you long if you keep it up.

How come they didn't do this with the 07 G coupe?

I have both the G35 coupe and sedan. I love both, but the styling of the coupe is dearer to my heart and the coupe is the one that I have an ambitious build project planned for (besides the fact that the sedan is the wife's daily driver ).
Like the others said, the sedan obviously has a more usable and practical backseat area, if that's a priority for you. The coupe has the same wheelbase and rear leg room, but a lot less headroom.
As far as the handling, it's great, and you would be amazed with the difference just putting a set of aftermarket sway bars (I've got Cusco) makes to an otherwise stock suspension/wheel/tire setup.
As far as the 350Z, I prefer the styling of the G coupe. I shopped and test drove both cars before buying my first G coupe in 2004. I think it's so much sleeker and sexier than the Z. The Z looks stubby to me. I think the G's styling outweighs any minor/slight performance advantage the Z has. Another consideration is that Infiniti has a superior warranty to Nissan (4 years/60,000 miles & 6 years/70,000 miles versus 3 years/36,000 miles & 5 years/60,000 miles).
I hope this helps. Good luck with your decision!

Here's a picture that might help sway your decision to go with 4 doors
comparative "ROOM" space between the coupe and sedan is no comparison, i can barely fit in the back of my friends coupe and i'm only 5'10" 170. I can comfortably sit in the back of my sedan and stretch my legs out. With the front seats all the way forward.... there's PLENTY of room back there
