Did anyone cross shop used cars as well?

With a Z, you're paying to maintain a 35k car, and the aftermarket support pricing is in line with that.

With a GTR for example, even if you can buy one for 35k, you're going to be paying to maintain a 80k car, and the aftermarket support pricing is in line with that as well.

There's much more to consider cost-wise than the OTD price.
What he said.
If I was between a similarly priced Z and a Cayman, I'd choose the Z for the lower long-term cost of ownership.
