I honestly wish I could afford both! Even if I get rid of my Z for the Supra, I can't get over how much of a great car and platform it is. It will be very deeply missed!

Well I am going for 50%. If I don't get 50% then the Z stays.
Can't be as low as 25%. That is lower than a current market value 2015 stock NA 370Z with double the kms my Z has. My 2015 Z is a full TT build with extensive supporting mods and fully engineered, regency approved, mod plated, has certificate of exemption, passed emissions etc Should definitely be worth more than a stock NA 2015 370Z.

Look I hate to say it, but the new Z front end really destroys it for me. It looks so gutless from the front end. It looks like some sort of scared bug staring at you. I really dislike it. But the side profile and rear end are sick for sure! I just wish the front end was even just a tiny bit more aggressive.
Ontop of that, I really can't see that VR30 platform going anywhere near what the B58 is already smashing. I mean, I would like to be wrong, but I highly doubt it. Where are all the current VR30 guys now? I never hear anyone say that platform is mental and smashing out great performance numbers Iike alot of people are saying the b58 does. I guess I will just have to wait and see, if the VR30 is better on the new Z and be proven wrong.

Yea I would get a c8 too. But remember I am in Australia, the C8 is more than 2x the price of the Supra here with all the governemnt BS luxury taxes added on.
Also, I am not jumping on the evryone has one band wagon, because the Supra is still pretty rare in my neck of the woods. If you think I am on some band wagon, then I would have got a mustang GT? You can see one of them on every 2nd street down here. Plenty of local support for them too, and from what I hear can also make loads of power and good performance numbers. But the mustang GT does nothing for me looks wise. It does not pull me in, in anyway. The supra on the other hand does, obviously you can tell by now.
