OP - I bought a used 350z in high school and loved it. It wasn't terribly expensive, had plenty of power, and was a joy to drive. Having graduated college I now drive a 370z and can say without a doubt, the 370z is the better car. If you buy a 350 you'd likely regret it every time you see a 370z. The sport brakes are phenomenal, the car is better balanced, weighs about the same as the 350z (but sports better safety equipment), and gets slightly better gas mileage.

If you consider yourself a responsible and disciplined driver, there should be no reason not to get this car but I'd suggest buying used to save some cash. No need for the Nismo unless you really love the look of it. Performance wise its no different; slap an exhaust on a stock one and you'll be making more power than the nismo with a better sound.

Just because a car is fast doesn't mean its dangerous. A shitty car can go fast too... it just takes longer and doesn't brake as quickly.
