What about a genesis? The 3.8 has more HP than the Z (it has more weight though), but they are a bit cheaper. And the 2.0T is ever cheaper.

OP is looking to downgrade to a sub-20k car - not upgrade. Econ (not the OP) was talking about upgrading to the cayman.

now, back to our regularly scheduled program.. :tup:

I can still afford it but I feel like I would rather have more money to spend on other stuff.


I really can't decide what I would downgrade to so I was hoping to get some ideas. I want something sub 20k but it still has to be fast. The only cars I can think of are an STI or Evo. What else is out there?

Try re-financing. If that won't do it for you, buy a used E46 M3, maybe.

This. You might even be able to score a C5 Z06 for low 20's with a bit of mileage. If you can get over the rubbermade interior, it'll be a lot faster than the Z, cheaper insurance (corvette is one of the cheapest sportscars to insure) and look good on the outside as well. I would probably have ended up with this if my brother hadn't gone out and bought a C6 the year before I got the Z.
