Happy to be a new member of the form!

The lease on my 2011 G37s Coupe just ended, and now I am thinking about the 2015 Nismo 370z.

I plan on tracking the car around five times a year and know already that I need an oil cooler and some more serious brake pads + cooling. My concern about the Nismo is that it may look better but perform the same as a sport model Z. Have you guys found that to be the case? Also my G37 felt heavy and understeered unless I trail braked the car A LOT. Same issue with 370z handling?

Also, I am considering a 2005-2006 e46 M3. Don't really want to deal with a used car, but that machine is something I believe I must own at some point.

Thanks in advanced for the input. I have already found a lot of great info on the forum and look forward to getting a lot more.

-Gabriel
