I would have said Z first but I am going to say house first
Right now I wish I had a home with a driveway/garage to tuck my Z in at night I own a condo right now which is great and I have underground indoor parking, but can't have tools near by, decorate, etc so thats why I say home and hopefully within 6-12 months you can get the Z to go with it.

House.
Consider the house as an investment (most likely will increase value over time). The Z will only depreciate in value over time. Car is a luxury, a toy. House (home) is a necessity. |

A logical answer is house.
However, you are still young. Enjoy what you love. If Z is what you want, go for it. You have plenty of time to make more money for anything else. I made too many "logical" decisions when young which I regret now. If I were you, I'd spend $ on fun stuffs. |

House....up 110K in Value in 18 months..370Z.....surely not up in value... Cars unless they are basic DD's are Luxuries...Homes are part of an Investment strategy...Stocks, Real estate and other assets...But Cars are mostly fo the Fun and adrenaline...

The responsible choice is the house of course. These days though, nothing is guaranteed, including the value of the house you intend to buy.
I think the better questions is where you see yourself in 10 years? If you plan to get married/already married, plan to have kids, have a stable financial standings, etc..etc.. this may be the only time you really have an option to drive a Z or any 2 seater sports car. Yes, it's going to depreciate, but it's always going to be worth something. You can always sell it when you're ready for a house or possibly buy a used Z to lessen the lost from depreciation. Whatever you decide, choose what makes you happy.

House first, 390z/490z/590z/690z (who gives a crap z) later. Good luck with your decision friend.
