If you're comparing the G37S coupe to the IS350 coupe - no doubt the IS350 would lose, but only by a little.
It's 200 pounds heavier, 25 less hp, higher center of gravity (due to hardtop convert) and it's 4,000 dollars more than the G37S coupe, and 8,000 more than the standard G37.
But the IS350 does look "newer" and it is a convertible (with a tiny trunk though), just not a fan of the back end.
It's all about what you want though. Throaty engine with a more driver's feel type car with the G37S or luxury interior with slightly more numb steering and quieter engine.
If you don't mind paying the for the lexus, trading a little less performance for more luxury and show, than get the lexus. To non-car enthusiasts, the lexus will definitely look much more appealing and draw a larger crowd with the lexus name and hard top vert.
If you plan on modding the car, get the G37. There's a much larger vendor support for the G37 than the IS350, and you got the added support from the my350z forums because the 370z shares the same engine.
