-used Evos and STIs
Those were the biggies, although I never realistically considered the Evo/STI option. For me, I would have loved an M5 but I could not afford upkeep even though I had found cars that already had the trouble areas fixed such as the weak clutch and VANOS. GTOs were really nice but in the end, I felt the Z had more character, styling, and was more driver focused which I liked and continue to enjoy today.

Yea you were looking along my line too, I considered a 1 owner 2001 M5 a 2006 Vette with a Z51 pkg. and I was looking for a G8 with a GPX pkg. but they only made about 1300 so prices were high, I settled on the Z for similar reasons. Now if it only had a turbo or V8.
