It's very tempting. Especially as the Z turns 5 years old in 2 months.

I have, but it'll be a toy I probably end up keeping for a long time. I've looked around at all the new stuff out there and right now, an old car to restore/build is just more appealing to me and how I'd rather spend my money. New cars are nice and flashy for a few years, then it gets boring and is forgotten, especially once a new gen comes out. I want something that is classic. Think 240z/510. I think the newest I'll go is an MKIV Supra. Yeah it won't be the fastest or have the tech gadgets, but that's ok with me.

My first car was a base model '98 Mitsubishi 3000GT. I've always had dreams of picking up a VR-4 and building it into a rocket, but even if I could find something that wasn't molested I still don't think I could bring myself to buy a 16+ year old car and not blow it up in frustration.

Also keep in mind the VR-4 had 4 wheel drive, and 4-wheel steering, which is a beeyoch to keep aligned and functioning.
Second... the REGULAR 3000 GT weighs 3800. The VR-4 with all wheel drive is prolly more. IMHO... start with a more nimble platform. 2c
