While not in the same financial situation as you, I went with the Z over the Exige S because I would be devastated if I wrecked it at the track, and I can hoard money and wait for some nice investments or pick up that second home somewhere. Heck, my wife is from the Bahamas; maybe I will build a house there to vacation at in the summer.

Do something like that; once established there, hook up the GT3!
