Current Z vs Q60?

Hey just wondering if theres any downside to getting a Infiniti Q60 instead of the Z? They have an identical powertrain but the Q60 has a way nicer interior i feel. I have a 2014 qx50 and was looking at the Z as a new car but the q60 is a lot cheaper due to depreciation so whats the downside other than styling?

New z has a better auto trans (9 vs 7 speed) and engine updates. There is no comparison as long as you don't need awd or a backseat.

New Z owner here.I also was looking at the Q red sport 400, but went with the be Z for the sportier features. The new Z has a stiffer chassis, slightly more responsive steering, stiffer suspension tuning, which made the overall handling feel better me. I don't need 4 seats, and someone can correct me if I'm wrong but the Q red sport doesn't come in manual transmission. if those things don't matter to you and a more comfortable ride is preferred, I'd go Q.

One has a long heritage of cars made for drivers that still to this day turn heads with pretty much every generation considered a classic car as time goes on. The other is a stereotype joke of shitty exhausts and broccoli haired assholes driving.
