'01 and '02 M's have more power. Curb weight of 3217 lbs for the 350Z (minor facelift coming for '06, btw). 3131 lbs for the M Roadster... according to Edmunds.com the coupe weighs the same... probably not accurate.

According to BMW's M series brochure from 2002 both the coupe and roadster weigh 3131 lbs, unladen. Who'da thunk it?

I've driven friends' 350z (automatic) and G35 (manual) on a few occasions.
Maybe the gearing for those cars are weird or something, but both cars felt *significantly* slower than my 02 ///M. The accelleration from either a stop or slow roll in both of the 3.5's felt.... disappointing.

The 350Z and G35 (along with most recent "sports" cars) are geared for fewer shifts between 0-60 (and quicker time). Mostly a marketing ploy to get favorable reviews which fuel sales.

There is no comparison to an S54 M coupe.
It will eat 350z's all day in a straight line.
A Z car will make you feel like this
An M car make you fell like this
and when you think back to the z car you'll be like this
