Get the house.

If you like your Z, just stick with it. You will be much more satisfied with an asset that will increase in value (a house) and a car that is much more "engaging" to drive (that's also cheaper) than an expensive car that keeps depreciating and a large payment each month.

In addition, the costs of maintaining a GT-R are very high. Tires are $500/each and they're ultra soft compound so you'll burn through them quickly. The same goes for the brakes; even the cheapest, good quality aftermarket pads are $350 just for the front pads. These costs don't count the special engine oil that the car requires, which is not cheap and the $700 trans oil changes.
