Question 370z or G37 Coupe? Which Do You Like Best?

Hi Everyone, Just wondering what everyone prefers. Looks, Performance, whatever your reason. Which do you like best and why?

I own a G35 Coupe and i love it, but for the newer models available my vote goes to the 370z for it's aggressive new styling. I like it better than the G37 coupe hands down in every aspect. That's what I would Buy between the two.

You say you like the 370z more in every aspect. But what aspects have you experienced, first hand, from both vehicles?

In the looks category, which is the only one ive experienced first hand from both, I would say the 370z gets my vote. As for drivability and performance... I would say the g37 because I havent driven the 370z.

I have driven both.
370 wins in every aspect. Shorter, lighter, more responsive, better looking IMO.

+1 for the 370Z

IMO, they softened the coupe look WAY too much.

I don't think they softened it too much. I have said this before and will say it again. If they kept the weight down to what the G35 used to be, it would be a 3 series murderer. Even with its weight and everything else it is still a great car. The 370 is just not a fair comparison. The damn car competes with 911s and caymans.

i prefer the 370 as well.. i already have a heavy coupe that could use some excercising/training to lose a few pounds and get stronger.

My vote is mostly just based on looks, I've driven and G37 and really like it ( smooth). I love the G37s interior, Exterior is what I'm not so crazy about since the first day I saw it. No disrespect to the G37 owners, it looks good but the 370 wins out to me. I haven't driven a 370z yet but it looks good inside and out and Im sure it drives as good as it looks. Just my personal Opinion. Just wondering what people think about the two. Even if they haven't driving either.
keep em coming and thanks for the input everyone.
Rock on my fellow Gs

Oh i hear ya on the g37. I LOVED the interior.... FRIGGIN LOVED... it!! But... the exterior just had me going... hmm.... and i kept looking at the 35. Which is why i ended up with a 35 instead of a 37.

But, comparing the 37 to the 370... phew... that 370 just looks beastly in the looks department; i like it quite a bit. And, as ive said numerous times, i just think they tamed the dog gone 37 way too much with its looks. Sure wish they hadnt done that. Also makes me wonder, who on the design team, thought it was a good idea? And then, what CEO or whatever, gave the final thumbs up? None of them could see it?

If I were to buy a 370Z I'd miss the sunroof and the backseat. It's against most laws nowdays to throw your kids in the hatch. (my 280Z) The new 370Z is a very cool look'in ride and it's lighter and faster!
