One thing you'll love about the Z is it's on road manners.

One thing you'll hate about the Z is that it won't change directions quickly, the power steering will fight you. By quickly I mean like in a slaloom or driving down my driveway at speed (you'll end up in the trees)

I've got both and it's amazing how little the Z gets driven.

I liked the Z, and I had an 03 Track. It was a lemon. Had feathering and suspension issues.

Other than that, it was fun when it was all working.

Torque was fun.

Having owned the S, the Mazdaspeed3 (current), and the Track Z here is how I rate them all:

Power & Torque (least to greatest):
S2k - 350z - Mazdaspeed3

Handling:
Mazdaspeed3 - 350Z - S2k

Comfort:
350Z - S2k - Mazdaspeed3 (Tie between S2k and Mazda)

Fun:
350Z - Mazdaspeed3 - S2k

About the fun, the Mazda is a hard to control to the point it's fun because the car just wants to do it's own thing. It's very wild. 350Z for me was just...eh. Power was nice but nothing crazy. The S for me was the most fun. It wasn't wild unless you were at the limit, and even then it felt like everything was there to help you focus on one thing. Driving closer to the limit, and inching the bar up everytime you go out.

Nice one here:
http://austin.craigslist.org/car/771957830.html

Most folks w/ multiple cars have very different ones to meet dfferent needs (i.e sports car + family sedan, SUV, etc.), not 2 2 seat sports cars w/ limited cargo capacity. But it's a free country, and you have every right to spend your money &/or get into debt as you choose. People questioning your choice (incl. me) are just trying to help raise an issue that might not be so apparent when you're excited and lusting over your next acquisition!
