Advice: Infiniti G35 or Nissan 350Z
 
Looking at purchasing a one of the following: Infiniti G35 or Nissan 350Z. Let me know Pro and Cons....

thanks

Timpo 01-02-2011 11:18 AM

G for sure...

better interior
4 seats
more upscale

the con for Z33 might be...um, it may go a bit faster and handle better?

Timpo 01-02-2011 11:19 AM

ok the speed is about the same

'04 G35 Coupe with CAI, 6 speed vs '04 350z with K&N filter, and full Borla exhaust and headers, also a 6 speed. 2nd and 1st gear rolls.

350Z for sure,

unless you need the 2 extra "seats" in the back, but honestly who uses a G coupe for the back seats.

If it's going to be his primary vehicle, those 2 extra seats make a WORLD of a difference

A 2 seater isn't as simple as it sounds... you need to go pick up two girls waiting for you, you're already screwed from the get go

if your asian: 350z
if your persian: G35



but srs, 6-speed 350z looks like a nicer all around sports car.

boostfever 01-02-2011 12:53 PM

^haha.

they're 2 different cars. it depends what you're looking for in the car. G35 is definitely more luxury with softer suspension and ride, 350z is the opposite.

personally i'd go with 350.

BlackZRoadster 01-02-2011 01:27 PM

im asian and i drive a 350z lol, but the typical asian stereotype should be driving a bmw

PJ 01-02-2011 02:08 PM

I'm an asian in a G35! lol

I was stuck between these 2 as well. But like ENDLESS stated above, the 2 extra seats make a world of difference. Even though you're probably not gonna use them 90% of the time, sometimes you just need that bit of extra space to carry stuff, or what if with some strange twist of fate, you need to pick up 3 hotties? ;)

I tested both and went with the G. I just like the luxury of the Infiniti. I don't have crazy mod plans, and hell, you're not gonna win any races with a G or a Z anyway. So it really comes down to what you're looking for - more to the luxury side or more to the sport side. My G is fun to drive, but if backseats weren't a huge concern for me, and I was looking for a raw fun sportscar, I would take the Z in a heartbeat.

cheapskate 01-02-2011 03:21 PM

350Z definitely!

Much more fun to drive! Screw the extra seats, I drive a coupe and I never use my back seats (I also like to use the lack of rear space in my coupe as an excuse to not give ppl rides :D)

And I don't think the G offers any more luxury than the Z other than a bit more interior space. Both have leather interior, both have similar quality stereo systems, both have optional nav, etc.

hirevtuner 01-02-2011 03:25 PM

go with the G, u and 3 other chicks

Jegz 01-02-2011 03:31 PM

G is g'ed up.

Nightwalker 01-02-2011 04:32 PM

I vote G!

They're almost the same car, but the G isn't so boy racer, has back seats and looks nicer imho. A tiny step up from the 350z.

greendb7 01-02-2011 05:04 PM

I'd personally go with the Z33
I think it looks nicer and is sportier, but then again I'm young and I'd mod it anyway and I think it looks nicer modded

Nicotine 01-02-2011 05:05 PM

those extra seats will save ur ass. G35

MindBomber 01-02-2011 05:14 PM

If its going to be your daily driver I vote G, a two seater is nothing but headaches if you don't have another option. Despite my vote, I personally prefer the 350z; its lighter, faster, better handling, but those are all things you can upgrade if your into modding.

PJ 01-02-2011 05:22 PM

You can still daily drive a Z if you really want to, I just found the G more spacious and comfy.

bigzz786786 01-02-2011 05:29 PM

i don't understand why you cant decide between a g35 or a 350z?

they are 2 totally different cars, the only common ground is the 3.5 vq motor, that's it

go with which one better suites your needs, either way, both are nice stock and modified

i personally own a g35 coupe (black on black 06 5at), im also looking to sell if your interested, pm me

oldsnail 01-02-2011 05:34 PM

there should be a poll for this.

it all comes down to luxury vs performance

Funny how you don't know much about your own car, they are very similar in many ways other than the motor, the chassis for instance.

rJZx 01-02-2011 05:49 PM

IMO, id go with the g35 hands down.

you think the average person is gonna compare chasis? no, they will compare ride quality, engine/exhaust tone, looks, and luxury


its pretty obvious what to choose over when it ultimately comes down to a g35 coupe and a 350z, 4 seats or 2 seats

seriously, its not rocket science, either way i would go with an 06+ nicer features on both

jpark 01-02-2011 06:53 PM

imo i would go for the g35

yes its slightly slower than the z33 but honestly this 'slowness' that people say compared to the 350z really doesnt mean anything.. in the end its still a quick car

my friend has a 370z and having no back seats become really 'annoying' after a while.

but g35 coupes are everywhere.. 350z are bit more rare than the g coupes at least

G THURTYY FIIIVEEE!
