Going with a nicer instrument can help you become a better player. Smoother action and better tone can motivate you to play more, which may result in you improving your talent level. That is not always the case, but I see nothing wrong with buying a high quality instrument if you can truly afford it.
I play acoustic guitar and I am probably mediocre to fair at best. I own a Augustino (yes, as in Lo Prinzi) DR-31 that cost me 550.00 in 1980 and is now worth at least 1,200 (they sell new for 2400. I may eventually sell it. but I don't feel guilty for owning it.
