no need to puff up the Z. It's an old platform, it shouldn't hurt your feelings that it has flaws in is current form on the dealership lot compared to new cars
have you seen any of the new supra? there's alot of modern engineering, GOOD engineering that went into it, plus the platform has built-in upgradeability, much moreso than the Z
the smallest example? The fender vents on the supra are blocked off in current form - but they're THERE. Its design to be opened up, its placed in a location to function, and future performance versions will feature them. or you can just remove the blockage
on the Z? i have to hack up the fender to install the Finite Element fender vents.
its little things like that you don't really "think about when you say "60k supra" versus "45k nismo"

You seem to think I’m a Z fanboi. While I love my USED Z I’m far from a fanboi. You keep comparing used to new when it suits you.
How’s this, you have $70,000 to blow on a new car. You can buy a Supra (maybe) or you can buy a Z and put $35,000 into it.
I guarantee you the Z will smoke that BMW in every way, including looks.
Personally, I buy a C8 and spend the left over $10,000 on beer and women. But that’s me. YMMV.
