I like the G35 rear end and the 350Z front end.

i was gonna say the same thing!



it occured to me why the z is so ugly back there, its because it doesnt look like a car, it looks like a washing machine, or some other household appliance

g35 is nicer looking, nicer feeling, faster, and handles better



ive driven both a lot (500-1000 miles each) and that is the conclusion i have come to

I wish I was rich so I could do that. I barely have the money to keep the FD on the street.

It is the same frame right? So you could probally switch body parts

The more I see the G35 coupe, the more I love it!

Travisty 01-12-2004 03:07 PM

i say G35.

absolutely beautiful.

mazdaspeed101 01-15-2004 08:15 AM

i say g35 cuz i know the ladies would like that more https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png

Danno 01-16-2004 02:13 PM

Yeah I think the ladies do like the G35 more. My wife hates the rear tail lights on the 350Z.

TheAntiChrice 01-28-2004 03:00 AM

Someone explain to me how the G35 is faster and handles better than the 350? Its the same driveline but the G35 is a few hundred pounds heavier... Nicer looking yes.. but the center console seemed very plasticky to me... 350 > G35 .. Performance First, Looks Second

Sinful7 01-28-2004 09:29 AM

I dunno - I like the 350Z a lot, but I voted for the G35.. I like the baller style and the luxury cajones of that car.

have you driven both?

FikseRxSeven 02-01-2004 11:32 AM

i've never rode or drove a 350z, but i ddi drive and was also a passenger on a g35coupe.... and g35 is just so comfortable and smooth, feels like you're in a sadan rather than a sports car. i like it

Dysfnctnl85 02-01-2004 11:45 AM

G35 all the way. The car is gorgeous. The Z is hideous.



It's only slightly slower than the 350Z, which isn't fast to begin with.



It would be a great sleeper.

it handles better, they say because of the slightly longer wheelbase.



its not faster, maybe not as good looking, but it will hold better

resale value and the dealer expierence will be better then owning a Nissan.

Yessum.. I'm sort of the poor boy that has friends with too much money and dumb parents.. My friend got a dark silver one for Christmas.. 6 Speed.. Mommy and Daddy even had a big bow on it.. drove it.. its got balls but I've driven faster. Other "friend" of mine.. his rich ass dad bought him a 350Z.. I drove it 3 times before he decided to lose control at 136 mph and plowed into a tree, effectively killing a nice piece of shade.. damn near killed by best friends little sister in the process.. we don't like him much anymore.. he'll be getting an assbeating shortly. my boy Kurt in Trophy Club just got back from OKC.. his parents bought him a newer model 3000GT VR4.. he's 17.. his first car.. too much money and not enough common sense...

FrestyleFC3S 02-01-2004 05:05 PM

well g35 350z and vr4 are all slow heavy cars

TheAntiChrice 02-01-2004 09:06 PM

Well compared to the 2800lb FD or just as light FC (don't know curb weight)... I would figure as much... Still love that 560 horse Supra I drove when I was 16...

MazdaMike 02-01-2004 10:28 PM

um g35 all the way, nice grumble handles decent (u can tell its a fat ass though) but looks.... COME ON the looks of the g35! its so god damn sexy. suspension rb26 and ur in!
