I thought about the Jag last year, but the new price point why not just for the Merc GTS? I'm still in love with the GT3 damn thing screams and is the best driving car I have driven. Well until I get to drive Mike's 675 I will report back.

The car lasted about 8 months in the stable only to be replaced by the new 991 TT-S.

I think you and I are very much aligned, especially when it comes to sound. You own one of the best cars ever made and even the sound with the Speciale has given you pause at times (I hope I speak in line with your thoughts- saw your thread at F chat back in the day).

The variety of cars here is insane. Who would have known that a BMW M forum would hide such a treasure trove of knowledge and experience!

You guys are awesome. I wish I could come and visit each and everyone one of you. This is definitely one the best kept secret forums for discussing any car. We joke about the M4, but no one here hates on any car. Unless it's a Prius of course.

of my current stable or just any car in general? Of my current stable it would be the GTS: easy to drive, park, maneuver, and fast as fawk with the tune.

Of any car available... wow that's a question I have to ponder over. I think I would have to consider the new Turbo S (991.2) along with my GTS- maybe the Audi R V10+ as these are all daily super cars IMHO. I am answering in a practical approach of course because I could just say 918, P1, or LaFerrari but that isn't ever going to happen LOL.

She's fun to drive

Needed a convertible so the M5 had to be sacrificed. M5 still a great car just didn't fit the bill for now.

I would get an M5 again or even an M6.... I look at these cars daily cause I never kept my M5 long enough (2012 to 2013 6 months) and I like to do basic mods like tune, exhaust, lower, wheels- the market is abundant with options now for this car. I didn't have all that back in Oct of 2012 but did end up with wheels and exhaust.

I would agree with the TT as the one car to choose for everyday duties, although I prefer the R8.

Now if you where told to pick one vehicle only for everyday use in all conditions; (and I don't mean bloody sunny California conditions! lol), what would it be?

Like much of the British press I'd choose a Range Rover.

You guys?
