I think they're 2800ish lbs with a 2.8L DOHC 12 valve.
Retrolicious.
On a serious note, I think the G35 you mentioned is the most modern thing that qualifies. Join the herd?
I can't honestly suggest an SC430, though it's sorta a G35 competitor. Too ugly and not a driver's car.

The MkIII Supra is already older than me LOL. I think if I were to do it again I'd get a NA MkII MR2, having a roof over the head, actual luggage space, and a couple grand to spare is well worth the slightly crappier performance. It's not like the interior of the Spyder is any better.
But after being that guy with the useless 2 seater for so long, I am feeling guilty
The G35 looks like a giant fat pig (the E46 actually weighs more, but it looks more svelte), but the biggest problem is the VQ exhaust note. Everyone knows a Nissan V6 powered car just rolled by when you have one of those, and the sound is awful. I guess some mufflers would fix that, but there are no "///M" badges or "Carrera" badges on it to tell people that once upon a time it was a glorious high end car, and let's be honest that's kind of the point of driving a gas guzzling 2+2 boat around.
