I'm not super eager to upgrade to 991 Turbo when they come out in a year or so--- the cars are moving in wrong direction, IMHO.

Although I stand by statement that everyone needs a 911 (ideally a turbo) at least once in your life, for a *sports car* I think the Cayman is better.

So: F10 M5, unless you feel that it is time to scratch the 911 itch. For a two car configuration, consider the F10 M5 and a used Cayman S. Can prob get both for less money than a 911 Turbo....
Love the itch analogy The other choice was a 08 997 turbo, less than $100k but again besides for the fierce looks, the car does nothing else for me. It is WAY too much car. My M3 is already too much for public roads, which is why I am leaning to basic 991.
