Okay my brother is doing my head in lately. He is in the process of selling both his cars:

and his run around car:

He has just sold one of 3 houses and made quite a bit, but most of that will go back into property...
He is bored of everything and now is looking at a new car. He loves fast cars and loves subtlety and he cant decide what car to get. He wants a car he can mod a little and get some serious speed, he cant decide between the following, and his reasons why are given:
Cayman S (do I really want to spend this much plus more on modding, no subtlety everybody will expect it too be quick, I could get something faster for cheaper, but card does hold its value, but for a bit more could get a 2nd hand 911 turbo, but same thing again)
R34 (do I really want a car that is quite old, and also new version coming out soon but prob be overpriced for what you get)
S2000 (supercharged might be nice but but hairdressers car and not really my style)
M12 Noble (surprisingly quick but servicing cost is a joke and out of principle is a waste)
Audi RS4 (fuel a joke and for what you pay there is faster)
Audi S3 (35k there must be something better than this)
Mazda RX7 (not bad after 70,000 mile need new engine rebuild but could keep my runaround car and use this on weekend. But too old a car)
Supra (everything that can be done has been done, too old)
350z (has alot of potential but not sure if it cuts it with the other choices.would not spend 20k doing up this car as did that with the Saab and all that is now wasted on the resale)
My brother winds me up because one week he says he wants a 350z gets me to look into it then changes his mind. He has got a bit of money saved but dont want to waste it on silly things like overpriced servicing if you catch what I mean.
Can anyone advise me what I could tell him to get, and perhaps pursuade him to get 350z. he does like them but he wants something that is quick worth its money, holds its value, something he will enjoy... hes a fussy bastard.
