Anyways G37 didn't impress enough to make it an option.
And I saw a total of 6 M3's in my daily commute (3 in parking garage) which made me feel like the mustang compared to the 370z
So yeah IS-F wins out of the group
Now one of the370z's vendors needs to make a quality forced induction kit for it

Within your price range, I like Mercedes-Benz E class. V8 torque is so nice.

Of course, Toyota's reliability is top. Their Yamaha-tuned 5.0 liter is sweet, too.

Don't think Chevrolet makes a great quality product.

Yeah the BMW M3 E92 is a no brainer. To say it's nothing special / not much more than the 335i is just ridiculous as mentioned. Not that the 335i is bad but the M3 is DEFIANTLY a different animal. There's a good reason for why it wins pretty much every creditable comparison test against cars in its segment.

C63 doesn't seem to be getting much love here, but I'd go for one in a heartbeat. It's quicker than all but the CTS-V and has hands down, the best sounding engine of the pack. No aftermarket exhaust needed unless you want even more.

Because being able to "purchase" and "afford" are two totally different things. The GT-R is no less expensive to maintain than the typical 250K super car. You got another thing coming if you think a GT-R is going to cost you the same or anywhere near the amount of a typical 55-65K car.

This is of course taking into account the GT-R is driven the way it was designed for and not just pussy footing around town all the time. But yeah that's the answer plus some people buy cars more on how they feel behind the wheel vs. it's test track numbers. There's obviously so much more to a good sports car mere numbers could ever convey.

Kid I know with the ISF daily drives it, no track time, told me that its common amongst ISF drivers to need to replace brakes and rotors every 15-20k, just sayin. They may have resolved that issue with newer models, I would have taken the CTSV out of the candidates.
