someone mentioned a used vette. i think thats a great idea.

i've driven an s2000 and it was a freaking blast. haven't driven a 350z so i can't really compare.

im kinda pro-american so i'd probably go with a mustang (i.e. a used 03/04 cobra that i can mod the hell out of)

You are supposed to. You don't drive a Ferrari or a Honda like a pushrod V8. You make it sing. 6k launch and keep it above 6k FTW.

You will never get F1 and atmo only engines. Sorry. Oh, at that atmo engine is 1.2hp/l.

hp/l arguement doesn't ring true for much at all.
Especially when you type it wrong. 120hp/l. And it does ring true. That is how a 2.0l can keep up with a 3.5l V6.

Buy a mustang GT or M3, or used Vette

The Mustang GT weighs more than the 350Z. So does the M3, by a fraction.

The difference between the Z and teh M3 varies by which version of Z you have, with a couple of Z's being a couple of Kg heavier. It's so small there is no need to compare, not to mention the Z is short ~60hp and the M3 has an 8k redline (That's just for you ;) )

I'd get a G35 (used or maybe get a 2006 model when the 2007s are coming in).

S2000... love that little ah heck.
