The GTV will be nice, but I'm not gonna be looking for a 4-seat coupe to replace my Z when the time comes. I'll want another 2-seater, maybe even a convertible. And I'm certainly not gonna be in the market for an automatic, which means the only car in this class I'd ever consider would be an M4.
I honestly don't know what could possibly replace a Z for me for what I want. There just aren't many manual 2-seaters out there anymore. I see way too many Corvettes that wouldn't want one. The new 718s have Subaru motors, and I'm not spending $80k+ for a 4 cylinder. And the F-Type V6 manual is no quicker than a stock Z for almost $90k. No thanks. The new Supra, like all Toyotas, will be a joke of car. And its Z4 brother, which I had high hopes for, is now rumored to be automatic only as well.
Alfa should have blessed the 4C with a manual. I might have gotten over the fact that it was only a 4 cylinder with those looks and at just under $60k. As it stands, it's looking like I'm just gonna run my Nismo to the ground lol. The only thing I can think of is maybe an Evora 400 that's been sitting on the lot for a while at a discount.
