I hear you 100% the car is not just a few thousand more in the real world--- maybe on a build site but a fully loaded nicely apportioned C4S (C2S is less as you well know) is about 130k all in. This with all the bells and the GT3 at base with adds is 141k msrp but no one will offer this up for an order cancel. If one was fortunate enough to get a build then the dealers can charge over sticker. I called my latest contact and the first offer was 20k over on their final allocation (they have 3 total). And I just got a C4S from them too LOL.... Canada might differ so good luck Mainly!!!!!!

You may want to give the R8 a try. It's not a common sight on the road, gets a lot of looks and it really handles well. I actually enjoy driving it more than my E92 M3. I crossed shopped it with the 991 carrera s, AM vantage s, and 997 gt3. For me it was just the easiest to get in drive hard, and offered some exclusivity. It's not a torque monster and needs to be revved to get the most out of it, but its fun.

tough to say--- they all serve different purposes and functions- so this is more of a current feeling that could change: 1. R8 V10 2. 991 C4S 3. C63 BS tied with M6 (BS more fun to drive, M6 faster) You are right in how you feel about the F13 especially compared to the F10. I can see why you wanted to get a vert version of the M6 and hardroof edition. I love the S63tu engine- I wish it was in a chassis I could toss around alot more and easier though. It would be fucking deadly. I am parting ways with the M5.

You have read up my C4S reviews, just make sure you drive one with "sport plus" on and have the suspension on firm. Drive it hard - and dont freak when the rpms stay up top when you are cruising around town- thats what sport plus does. You can always up shift with the paddles if you are concerned LOL. The 991 cockpit is much nicer and more advanced than the R8 no doubt. But I love the R8 sound did I tell you this?

You missed the part I did not like. It felt "old" inside to me. The 991 next to it looks like a more modern car. I really see the 997 as in need of the interior update of the 991. As for performance, it was insane!

I would find it so hard to part ways with my R8. Feels like a real race car that I can put the top down on. When driving it I take the long way almost every time. You forget about the older interior and NAV, the driving experience totally dominates and the confidence it gives any driver is incredible. Did I mention the V10 sound, its sex to my ears hehe.
