Totalled my Z yesterday...what should I consider next?

For $50-55k, I can buy a used Corvette Z06 which will smoke them all!

I have found a 2017 Nismo with 5k miles on it for $31k. Besides the body features, what are the biggest differences between a Nismo and a Sport package? My 2010 Z had the Fast Intentions exhaust, Stillen CAI, and a tune. Would I need those items on a Nismo or do they come standard? Also, the stereo system in my Z was AWFUL...is the Nismo system far superior? What other items are superior? The same dealer has a 2018 Sport Package with 7k miles for $24k.

It'll also be a lot easier and cheaper to get gobs of power out of the B58 and of course the feel of a turbo charged car vs an N/A car is very different.

I'd get a Civic Type R if you can stand the looks.
