Several reasons.

-I am moving soon, and less note is more.
-I love the 370Z's interior.
-The 370Z handles very well, and 505hp and very tall gears lead to very illegal activity.
-Where I am moving, corners will be much more prevalent than straights. Both cars will be on nearly equal terms in such an environment, but the cost is NOT equal, nor are the interiors.
-I like change. I plan on driving a 370Z until the C7 corvette comes out, has been refined for 2-3 years, and then trading back into a 'vette.
-I learned that no matter how much power you have, you get used to it and it all feels the same.
-My experience at spring mountain taught me that I don't have the skill for it to matter. Myself and other students were falling behind the Camaro SS driving instructors in our ZR1's. Epic skill-fail. So basically, a driver like me, is going to have the same fun in the twisties in a 370Z as in a 'vette, whether you want to man up and admit it or not, I think at LEAST 85-90% of the owners of these kinds of vehicles fall in that class, as well (based on all the students and how they fared similarly).
-Did I mention that I love the 370Z's interior?
