The european cars are going to be a bit more expensive (I'm guessing in the 100 - 120k range). The Lingenfelter isn't to far off though. You could probably get a TT Z06 for the same price as a R34, if not cheaper. It still doesn't have ATTESA-PRO though ... yummy~~

Now if you get one of the older skylines. No contest. They're so much cheaper that with the same amount of money they'll blow all those cars out of the water.

Now as to preference ... some people will ALWAYS like the Corvette, Porsche, etc better. Nothing you can do about that.

out of those two... evo. But put STi on the list and I'd take that instead.

Why 4 doors you ask? Easy... how much you wanna bet that the evo8 won't be considered a sports car? I know my car isn't. And that means wonderfully low insurance rates 2-door anything always gets farked on insurance... doesn't even have to be a sports car.

I heard somewhere that there'll be a Nismo turbo or twin-turbo (I forget which) kit available for the 350Z some time this year. I'm guessing 400+ rwhp range.

Greddy has one built already. Don't know if it's for sale yet though.

I say STI. I love the 350, but if you are looking for the best deal I think the STI will be it.

Ummm...that's a tough choice...to me, the 350Z has a way more cool factor, but I'm not too sure of the performance aspects of either...let me look around for some info on both and I'll vote later.
