I looked at that picture of the ZM and the interior doesn't look all that great for a $57K car
If I had $57K to spend of a car for looks and decent handling, 2 seats, I say a one year old Cayman S.

The interior is minimalistic, but by no means mediocre, it has better fit and finish than the G. This car is meant to be driven fast, real fast, not sitting while sipping your coffee and cruise in traffic.
Frankly, if I wanted a Porsche, I wouldn't settle on a Cayman or a boxster which the Z4M is compared to. There is no substitute for the Turbo. Plus I like the roadster's look so much better than cayman. Speed channel did a special on M cars in September, he said it's the most fun you can have in a BMW, and I agree.

Would like a flashy looking daily driver that is not too hard on the pocket maintenance-wise. I like atheletic cars with decent performance, but never-the-less livable and not daily punishment.
Which would be the better choice? Do all G35cs feather their tires badly?

Speaking of feathering, I have over 21,000 miles on the stock Michelin Pilot Sports and there is barely any feathering at all, and I'm lowered on Tein H-Tech for 350Z springs with no other mods done to the suspension yet. I guess this problem is hit or miss, and seems to be more an issue for 350Z's than G's.
It hurts my eyes when I see a Z4- FUGLY! I hate that diagonal slash between the front wheel and the door- WTF????

I have an '07 Z4 Coupe
I sold my '04 Infiniti Coupe for an 06 BMW Z4 Coupe (3.0si). I have to say that I am completely satisfied with the Z. This car is fantasic in terms of its acceleration and handling. It's a driver's car. My G felt a bit pedestrian compared to this car. The G is still a top car on my list and I still recommend them to folks. I simply like to feel the road and the Z does it for me. I've had mine for 6 months now and I've never looked back. The fit and finish is superb and the cabin is minimalist, but it was designed that way to allow the driver to focus on driving.
You should all be proud to drive G35s. This is the best value out there for a coupe. I wish you all the best!
