Obviously the 370z will be the inferior car, but the fact that it's a decent match on paper at $6k less and not tuned (and over a decade old) doesn't bode well for the 2.0 Supra. And you can get the 370z with a manual.

Just my 2c.
But the only reason it is $6K less is because it IS a 10 year old car. If it had anything more than minor upgrades in the time it has existed the price gap would have been closed by now.

Besides every time you walk up to it you have to look at those horrible horrible door handles.
