They recognize the LS1!! 350z are cool but like they say are no match for our ls1's. Better match for the LT1

350z are so cheesy, cheesy like cheetos. I used to like them until I started having firsthand experience with them. Its just like an upscale f-body, rattles, creaks, wears tires out like nobodies business, has all sorts of weird electrical problems, the list goes on. And this is on an 07 with less than 30k miles, I would hate to see how the 03's are doing with 100k on them. My buddies 06 crapped out the motor at 40k and still hasn't been put back together. Its too bad because they're nice looking cars.

Hey I'm interested in the differences you encountered with the G35 & the T/A.

Maintenance differences?
mileage?
I heard the mileage is similar to our f-bodies.

They're both different cars. G35 is more luxurious and the T/A is muscle car.

Interior the G35 wins. The leather and modern feel is great. The T/A is nice also but like a said the G35 is luxurious. One thing I still haven't gotten comfortable with and this is with my previous Camaro SS is that when i adjust my seat I sit alittle more straight then most people. I drive with the gansta lean or face in the steering wheel like a senior citizen. With the T/A and Camaro the hood is so long and tall its hard to see over so I have to sit straighter which makes me feel like I'm sitting like an old man.

Maintenance is about the same.

I can't remember exactly the MPG but they're pretty close. Both had the 6MT. Premium is recommended in the G35 though. I love that I can use regular in the T/A.

Raw Power goes to the LS1. G35 has good linear power. Both handle well but I think the G35 has it stock against stock.

Like I said before they're both different breeds. If you want a nice luxurious car you get the G35.

If you want raw american muscle get the LS1.
