Default New Nismo vs Base?

I just recently totaled by 370Z, luckily I have GAP. I'm looking at replacing it with another 370Z. I was thinking about another base+sport with floor mats $30k or else I've got a dealer that just called me and said he just got two silver Nismos in and he can get me one for $38.5k and can't go lower because of their availability as Nismos. I was paying $625/mo for 5 years on my past Z. I have $1000 to put down now. I could possibly get a Nismo for $680 if I stretched it to a 6 year loan..... Which I could fit in my budget but I can't see myself paying 6 years when I get bored with a car after 4yrs or so.

Also, my Z was only 7.9% because I only put $500 down and I'm 24 and don't have much credit. I'd imagine I'd get a better interest rate now which could potentially get the base+sport for just $580/mo or lower.

Also, almost forgot but the $30k base+sport comes with 2yr free maintenance and lifetime powertrain warranty.

What are your ideas? Should I just say screw it and get the Nismo? Or stick with the cheaper base+sport?


OR....(flame suit).... I'm considering 2011 WRX fully loaded for $27k.
