Granted a GTR will hold its value but insurance and other costs for the car can add up plus a modified and turboed 370z will be stock GTR on a roll. (if its done right) On the other hand a dual clutch transmission and all wheel drive is my dream.

my honest suggestion is take $20k as a down payment on a new GT-R. dealerships are selling them for $85K right now. much beter buy than a used one for 65-70K. unless it's a 2013. quickest 0-60 & 1/4 stock.

but i'm right there with you on the decision of 20K for TT and upgraded 7AT vs. other things.
