I hate to say it guys...

Would you feel regretful if it were a Porsche 911? because its even smaller than a 370Z. And I haven't heard a single owner complain that the 911 is too

I've got no interest at all in owning a Porsche 911.

No, it's not. It's more difficult to get in and out of, but it has a back seat (useless for humans but it holds stuff) and more shoulder room. Doing shopping is easier in the 911 than the Z, although getting golf clubs in/out of the Z is much easier than putting them in the back seat of the 911 or the passenger seat and having to cover everything in towels to avoid slamming a driver head against the passenger side glass (or having it fall over on you while driving) Visibility in the 911 is also very good for a sports car, better than the Z for sure.

I think the XTerra is a good complement to the Z. Pick up a used one and keep that for hauling stuff. My dad has an '07 4x4 Off Road and I borrow it when I need to take my bicycle somewhere and for other occasional shopping trips. You can hold a lot in an XTerra when the rear seats are folded down, and that's very easy to do with just four pull straps.

The Z is my daily driver. I carry a briefcase and a laptop computer, and look at the Z as something to drive when I have to wear a suit, or play golf, and can't take the motorcycle.

I'm 6'3" and 180 lbs. The car fits me fine. When buying a car: If my head hits the ceiling it is too small for me. 6'3" is a far cry from 6'5" in a sports car though.
Re: Space. Yesterday I stood a boxed rifle in the front using the head rest to hold it in place, and 7 bags of groceries.
