Getting a new car, looking for some opinions

hey guys, i'm going to be buying a new car in a few months and i'm starting to do some shopping, heres a list of what i'm looking at, i know its not chevy, but i've already got my camaro in the making and now i'm looking for something really sporty and brand new so i know nobody has beat on it, voice your opinions, thanks guys.

My opinion is the 350z. Its a really nice sporty call. and if you get the convert. it doubles as a classy car as well

I'd go with the WRX just because it's all around sporty and has awesome off road capabilities.

not really a huge fan of any of them, but im in and around all of then. aside from the jeep all day. im not too impressed with any of them. I suppose the WRX is a good car, but i would say the jeep just cause its americanish..

The Fairlady Z, WRX is a close second.

Let me say that I don't like the 2008 WRX. The Fairlady 350Z is more of a track car and actually weighs more and is slower (in a straight line at least) then the standard 350Z. Also remember that the Jeep gets pretty terrible gas mileage (12 city, 15 highway) but it is quite fast.

Well.. i didnt vote, but i'll throw in my opinions..
I pretty much always prefer domestic over anything else..  so i would probably consider the Jeep.
But, the 350z is decently quick.. never been in one but i have been in the G35 and from what i hear they're basically the same thing.  So if you really want a car i would say either the 350x or the G35, but if not maybe the Jeep.  If your looking for more sporty, i would probably say the 350z but if you want something kinda sporty and classy, i would go with the G35.

Personally, for just a sporty DD or something, I'd probably go with the 350Z, or if you don't mind shelling out the extra cash, the G35 coupe. My uncle has a 6sp 350Z convertible and it's pretty quick, and it's extremely quiet inside (esp. for a vert), and it even seemed to ride prety damn smooth too. If you don't mind shelling out that extra cash for gas, I think the SRT-8 Jeep would be pretty sick too, haha. But I don't know, my votes going for the 350Z.

ok, well on here it looks like the 350z took the polls, i'm going today to look at all of those cars, i basically narrowed it down to the 350z or the g35, minus the fact that the g35 is like 10k more, i think the 350z convert will be the winner, i'll let you guys know what i think of it.

ya, but the G35 is 250lbs heavier, and is tuned more for a comfortable ride than all out performance

i just think the g35 looks nicer the 350z is missing something to it but i didnt know that the g35 is 10k more

ok, yes i'm quoting myself, if you've got a problem with that, deal with it.

looked up some info on the G35, it actually runs off the Skyline platform in Japan.  the 350Z is on the Fairlady Z platform, same motor as the G35, but they are on two completely different platforms.  the Skyline platform was made stronger than the Z's, hence the heavier weight.  it had to be able to withstand the power from the new GTR's TT V6.

thats exacly right, and about me posting that the g35 is 10k more, i was over-exagerating a little, but i think you guys all get my point baout the g35 being a little more than the z, but yesterday, i went and test drove the 6 speed version of the g35 and i had so much fun, its going to be a real tough decision to decide between the g35 and the z, i got a quote on a g35 with 12k miles for 31k, not to bad, black on black and it drove extremley nice, its going to be tough.
