The great thing about a box standard 370Z is that it will run reliably to 200k miles with a few oil changes. You can't do that with a F430, cost of ownership for 100k miles will be as much as the purchase price. If you mod the 370Z engine to more than +15% and start drag stripping it, your reliability and life will degrade rapidly, along with the entire drivetrain.
