The 370Z is a good value, but that 3.7 VQ is past its prime and has gotten pretty coarse. I actually preferred the earlier 3.5 I had in my G35 coupe even though it was a little slower. I assume the Stingray is going to be hard to find at sticker price for a while. I respect the hell out of them, but Vettes really aren't my thing anyway. Plus first year of a brand new model ... little scary. From the rest of the list I like the M3. Personally, I'd be looking at a Cayman S or TTRS. I've driven the Cayman a couple times and loved it. I could even live with the base model with little complaint. Never had the pleasure of driving the TTRS, but my goodness I love the sound of that turbo five. If you're looking for something that will be a good long-term investment, you could try to get your hands on a Boss 302. And then there is the Supra rumored to be under joint development by Toyota and BMW. Ohhhhhhh yeaaaaaahhhhhhhh!
