i would say that it all depends on a few things.
if its going to be a daily i would reconend against the z06 even though it is my hands down fav out of the ones you chose. i think that for the street they really do have too much power, and unless you have more self control than any sub 25 year old that i have ever met, there will be too many chances to do something dumb and die.
it you are going to go the m3 route i would go with an older version. you could get an 07 m3 with low miles, all the needed luxery of the 08+ and mod it to be much faster and still save a lot of money over the 08+ m3. if money is no issue get the 08+ and just mod that as fast as you feel you need it.
the CS while it is a very nice car, i just can't stand them, and think that they are ugly. that said they are amazing. if you want a simular expirience to the s2k but much more refined and faster, this is the car for you. plus as a DD they are much safer, no huge hammer under the hood to bite your head off, plus i believe that it is the most neutral handaling car on your list, plus porsche makes magical cars.
other car that i would consider: 996 911 turbo can be had with low miles right in around and below your asumed price range if you look hard enough. out of all the cars i have driven, to me it is the perfect combination of luxery, sport, handling, power, and stability in bad weather. the 997 would obviously be an upgrade but are going to be more pricey untill the 998 or whatever comes out.
an older modle gt3 or early current gt3, both are going to be faster than the CS, and in my opinion look much better. and they follow that less is so much more formula.
if you live where it only rains 4 days a year and have a back up car for when it does, an atom would be so much fun...
any viper in the last 10-15 years would be fun. this follows the same line as the z06 but can be had for less... giant hammer under the hood, over steer in any gear, just push the loud pedal... and really good to kill yourself in.
GT-R basically a 911 turbo with a jap twist, and a front engine layout... lots of fun, and would get you as much attention as any of these cars would...
in the end it comes down to what you want and need, and no one knows you better than you, so drive them all and goes with the one that makes you smile the most that you could also live with...
