I haven't been able to convince most of my 'jdm' buddies that the 135i is a really viable tuner option now that they're so cheap, but maybe some time in the future.
Definitely, I would love to have a R32 GTR! But if it's a newer car, I'd stick with German.

I think the only Japanese cars today that are remotely close to affordable enthusiast cars are the 86 cars, the Miata, WRX and Civic Type R but none of those have the refinement if you want to drive them every day.
