g35c handling...opinions wanted

I am in a delema. The battered to death case of g35c vs 350z. My question is, how good a handler can the g35c be made into? I know it handles well from the factory but once you start putting on sway bars, coilovers, strut bars, ect., how good of a handling sports car can the g35c be?

Can a g35c with all the suspension upgrades be a worthy competitor to say a c5 or m3 or zcar? Can the G have the dynamic feel of a throughbreed sports car?

I love the looks and ammenities of the G but crave the sports car road feel and dynamics. Just trying to have my cake and eat it too!

All feedback welcomed and appreciated

thanks

Re: g35c handling...opinions wanted

Comparing a stock 350z to the G35c, the G35c has better numbers on the skid pad and slalom. However, the weight of the G35c makes it less nimble than the 350z (the understeer). Once you put on some sways, this will help a bit. Add some other suspension upgrades, and I'm sure it can keep up with most anything out there.

112" wheel base is the making of a good handling car. Twicking the suspension is part of the game that's what makes it fun.
