Question what kind of car do you want
I got the Z because it pulled nearly a full 1g in turns, ran about 5 sec 0-60

looked good and I could get the 370w/SP new under $32k.

My decision was all about bang for the buck.

The BMW wasn't in the running.

Your past vehicle choices lead me to guess your next car

will be a Subie or Evo.

Mine might be a vette

I was considering an older M5 but when you look at the upkeep & parts, plus with alot more BMWs out there personalizing your own would take thousands of dollars & years to complete.

And Congrats, i was in the same boat as you 135 or Z, picked the Z, as a friends MOM bought a 135.
This is one of the few times I've ever heard (read?) someone saying they cross-shopped with a 135i like I did. I thought I was crazy or something because the subject never came up on here

It's almost kind of validating to see that someone else considered it. On paper, it's actually one of the closest (relatively) competitors on the market.

The 135i was on my shopping list as well as the new 5.0. We ended up buying my wife a 328i and I just could not see having 2 BMWs, it seemed kinda redundant to me. I just could not get excited about the interior or the sheer number of Mustangs on the road so the 370Z won my heart!
