If you don't have a backup or daily driver it might be best to consider. I found a '99 Accord sedan for under $3k, and I've been very happy with it for the past couple of years. It is saving my butt right now since my Z is down waiting on parts.

Before dumping money in the order of magnitude of tens of thousands, research and plan very well in regards to what you want and avoid impulse decisions. In the meantime, keep on saving.

Invest the money, watch it grow, and buy a GTR.

Set $1500 aside for the inevitable CSC failure and throw in a nice clutch and flywheel while you're in there. Put the rest toward the car note if you have one.

Not real fun, but if you still owe on the Z, pay down the loan with it.
