Good luck with the part-out. I have a 2011 4Runner as a daily driver and it has been great (except for the gas mileage). Getting a crappy 18.3 mpg, but that's still better than my s/c'd Z. No regrets about the 4Runner, it's been great.

Wheels and lugs are now spoken for. Still have Coilovers, Camber arms/toebolts, and Exhaust available.

I think I will eventually get a 4runner. I love the e46 M3 and was thinking of getting one. My friend has one and kind of test drove it today.
But there are are couple of things I really loved about the Z that the M does not have that I am used to. Steering feel and torque. The Z's steering is much more mechanical feeling, I knew exactly what the tires were doing. Its probably the most important thing to me. The torque wasn't as great in the M3 and I didn't expect it to be a torquey engine anyway. But, that engine loves to rev and it feels great on the top end! haha. I also was looking at used e90 m3's...but I dont know if I would like to spend so much money on a car. I'll just save my money for the day I can get a Porsche 997.2 GT3/RS or a 996 GT3!

Funny how the milage thing seems to fall to the wayside once you start test driving stuff. My vote, if you still looking for a sippy car, is for the 250+ Hp Focus. No point having the FRS, BRZ or Honda Civic Si taking you off the line.
