Where im torn is the there is something great about being able to step into a 1 and preform just as well as a Z and still be practical, have back seats, have a much more quality interior and such a smooth and stiff ride. The engine on the 1 is just so smooth and the truth is I can spend about 1200$ and be at about 400whp! You can not get a Z to make that much HP for 1200$. Im just so in love with the Z history and how its such an attractive car, its really a true sports car!
