If a car is light it's because it's small, made for small people, lacks extra space (2 seaters, 4 seaters with tiny back seats, tiny trunks, etc) and/or it is slow (going fast takes heavier duty components, particularly when you want to avoid warranty repairs and thus costs down). I can't think of a single car lighter than the Camaro with it's performance capabilities speed/passenger/cargo/mpg(and from early indications handling) that isn't around twice the price (or more), and these few lighter much more expensive cars most likely still manage get worse mpg's despite their slight weight advantage.
As for the 370Z, it seems like an ok car if it's what someone wants, but it's going to be a step below the Camaro in speed and utility, with a likely step up in handling. Both seem like strong values, speed vs handling is personal taste but the 370 won't be slow and the Camaro won't handle bad so there's no real losing in this choice unless the extra utility of the Camaro matters to you (back seats and and larger trunk).
