Explain these numbers: Carrera S vs 370Z

With the cost of a Porsche it better perform better. Just buy the best car you can afford and enjoy it, so what if the Porsche is faster. If you owned the Porsche would you be happy if the 370z performed just as well and your money was wasted? Besides, look at all the money you're saving on maintenance and repairs by not owning the Porsche.

If what the Porsche does very well is what you want, then set your sights on owning a Porsche and work towards that goal.

There are also many recent vintage, low mileage, well cared for , Factory Certified used Carrera's available. The price would still be higher than a new Z, but you would be saving a substantial amount of green over a new Porsche. I think that would bring anybody a lot of satisfaction. You'll just have to accept the fact that you're not going to get filet mignon for the price of sirloin.

I own an 09' Infiniti G37S Coupe with man trans, which I love, but my goal is to own a used, but recent Carrera S in the not too distant future.

I test drove an 07' Carrera, not the S, and there is a difference even though my G has some mods.
