I’m looking at 2021 992. 21 rs6. Or 21 panamera gran turismo. 911 or a wagon. Tough call.

MKVI Camaro SS - 1:14.00
F85 X5M - 1:14.40

Just because it’s not a rwd car, doesn’t make it any less of an M car.

We are retiring soon, so we refreshed the garage before the income goes away. Don't foresee the next car coming anytime soon, but when it does, it will likely be a truck of some sort. We like to camp and the X3 is limiting the size we can tow.

The 997's are just about on the bottom of the depreciation curve and low mile/1 owner cars seem to be creeping back up. The 991's look to still be heading downward, but they have more modern touches. Either way I'm sure I'll be happy.
Timing lined up sooner than I thought and I traded in my M for a 991 4S over the weekend. What a machine!

Probably a 3/4 ton diesel pickup truck. And a big camper trailer to go with it.

The way new models are going, I may quite possibly hold onto my 991.2 GT3 forever.

Maybe then grab the latest-and-greatest performance car 5+ years down the road if hybrid/EV technology on new models seems compelling, but the more I think about it the more I honestly feel the GT3 might be a permanent fixture and then compliment it with a new generation vehicle loaded with tech as a second car. Whatever the next gen McLaren, Lambo etc. is definitely won't be NA and analog but I bet it'll be damn fast.

C8 Corvette z06. I figure I have it in me to buy one more sports car that I can only drive half the year and is a massive depreciating asset before I realign my spending priorities. It's looking like the z06 will be the closest thing to the Italian car I really want but can't justify buying. The m4 has been fun, but I want to see what the next level of car feels like.

Apparently, I might be buying my old Mazdaspeed6 back this weekend, but that will only replace my beater Acura. Hellcat lease ends next year. I love the car & have legitimately thought about either buying at least end or picking up a used HC in my color of choice already modded. However, I really am tired of big car payments, but I also love playing with new toys. I might just daily the 6 & go car payment free for a bit. No plans to sell the Miata so I'll have that too.

If I get something to replace the Hellcat, it'll likely be a much cheaper payment unless my financial situation changes, but unsure what to get b/c it still has to be fun to drive, fairly quick & be a decent daily for PA winters (At least 12s stock with a real trap speed, not 105 MPH) & have some mod potential without modding being pointless unless I spend big $.

In other words, I am completely lost!

I’m probably getting the new vette next since I still want a hardtop convertible. I was going to keep my current F33 for a winter car but I will give it to my daughter and get a better winter car for me and the dog.

Subarus and Priuses seem to be really popular with sanctimonious and judgemental people. They'll take your Bimmer in trade.

Well man I'm going to have to stand corrected. Had the biggest a-hole screwing with me today in his truck. I stopped the car, threw it in gear, and started to get out...luckily my wife was there and made me stand down. Still exchanged some nice words before she made me leave. She couldn't believe the nerve of the guy either. 1st issue I've ever had in the bimmer. Guessed you jinxed me.

I was rear ended in my daily and she's certainly totaled. Thinking about a ~2008-2010 Wrangler 4 door as a replacement.

A 2000 Accord coupe, 4cyl VTEC + 5 speed. She treated me very well, had her for almost a decade and she probably had another 100k miles left in her.

As for the Wrangler, I've always wanted a 4 door one since they were released and the prices are finally coming down on them. Plus what better vehicle is there for hitting the slopes in the winter and the beach in the summer, and comes in manual?
