I was thinking of getting a used 350Z or G35 coupe, but maybe I should just reconsider and get a GC when the time comes.

^You made the right decision. I'm not a huge fan of spoilers in general, but I could live with it. It's most likely cheaper to take off the spoiler and plug the holes than try to get Brembos installed
