Don't get me wrong, I love my Z. But if I just wanted the fasted thing I can afford I would have looked elsewhere.
Also if he truly plans to track I'm not sure how effective tt setup is for the z. heat can quickly become an issue so then your fighting cooling and that adds more cost. Maybe not an issue for the z but a few BMW groups guys I know went FI on the e90 and later removed it as their lap times really weren't any better since the heat kept having to pull timing, etc etc and eventually the actual power difference wasn't noticeable after lap 4-5.
