And I would not settle for the BRZ...

haha sorry! Yeah, I have no "intention" of modding it so I think I would be better off with the sports package, though the base is more affordable for me.

The Z lacks a little in driver feel but over all performance and especially straight line performance is a whole different level. Nissan just lowered the MSRP on '14's by 3K mostly to compete with the BRZ. For low 30's you can get a '14 base Z with the sport package. You get a lot more car for you $$$ with the Z. A limited BRZ is close to 30K and it needs a $5K Vortech and then it still wouldn't have the balls of a stock Z. Good luck with your choice. I struggled with the same choice in September last year and choose the Z. I'm glad I did.

I agree with you, I test drove both cars and fell in love with the Z. Although the BRZ is nice, only thing is the power. Felt like a dog. But both cars have their pro's and cons which is what I'm looking into right now. Also, I think the Z is at the end of its cycle so I'm not sure when the new model will be coming out.
