The whole point is, if I'm going manual for about the same price, I may as well pick up a car with more power that I've loved since I was younger (Z's were always my thing). The looks and idea of the FR-S/BRZ sold me on it in the first place.

It was my first RWD car, so the lower power was probably a good idea. But now it's time to step up a little bit. In my defense, the payment is also a factor. I'll actually have a down payment on the 370z, unlike buying the BRZ with only $1800 down and still having a near $500/month payment. My target is ~350/month and I'll put down whatever it takes to get that on a Sport 2010+ Z.
