How can something with fwd even be considered a sports car? I don't care how much you mod it. Even if you had 700hp it would still have fwd :P

The only downside is that I am going to have to order the car to get what I want. 6 speed 335s are not very common. I will be putting down my deposit soon and begin the wait.
Thanks for all the feedback you provided. The Z is a fantastic car that I would be happy driving. I just decided to stretch my budget and the car that best fits me.

BMWs just make good lease vehicles because of high residuals. Also, im not big on doing mods so a lease car doesn't hinder me like it would others.
