Default Swapping out your 350 for another model

Question for the currect Z owners:
Is anyone planning on changing out their current 350 for another model say a convertable or twin turbo when they come out? If you are how are you planing on doing it? Are you going to trade your current Z in, are you leasing (not sure if you could even do this in a year) or just going to buy another one. Sounds like some people feel they may have jumped the gun on getting a new Z and are looking for more options be it speed, convertable or fixes for current problems.

No, but I wouldn't mind adding a convertible in a few years to keep the miles down on my current Z.

No way. I hate convertibles (that's just me) and I already plan on turbo charging my Z not long after it FINALLY gets here. I plan on keeping this car a while--a big *** Dodge truck will be my daily driver in about a year, when I get some more money together.

I'd consider trading in if a factory tt or supercharged version came out - not that the Z is at all underpowered but can you ever really
have enough HP?

if and when i do get my Z it will be performance then add the
bbk brembo(s) and my choice of wheels. The carpets in the car will be all taken out and redone. Two tone seats with special stiching, intake, exhaust, CF trims and whole bunch more.

plus i save close to 5k off the price of track, and i end up with my choice of car.
