The house is a foreclosure with a few unknowns. But its dirt cheap at $126k. Pretty large, 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath that needs a little cosmetic work. Some new flooring and paint and things of that nature.
So, I love cars and have always wanted that serious premier sports car, but realize that at my age, 27, perhaps I should be thinking of the future. But man the present is too fun to think far ahead.
So, what would you do?

A house is the smart answer. You already have a 370Z so it's not like you don't have a nice car, and you don't own a house so get the house.
Maybe later on you can get a used 2009 GT-R for cheap. An $80,000+ GT-R is just not worth it unless you are filthy rich. And if you can get a house for a little more than the car, the house is a much better choice. And like it was pointed out you could sell the house a lot easier without losing a lot of money than a used GT-R. And hopefully make a profit when the housing market bounces back up (lets just hope it does and fast...)
