Personally, not having the sport features would bother me as much as not having a manual on a Z, but I could care less about the touring features.
So my top two priorities were manual trans and sport model. Color, while important, was a distant 3rd, as I would have been fine with a different color.
The point is, determine what is truly your top 1 or 2 priorities and go with that. Who cares what anyone else thinks (although not wrong to ask for opinions) of your final decision. Good luck on your decision and Monterey blue is a very nice color
