I would look into Porsche 996 Turbos personally, I would have got one too if I didn't care about maintenance costs too!

I almost bought a used 996, only problem was the fact that i much prefer the 997's. So i couldn't pull the trigger.. And used a 997 is the cost of a new GTR hahah... Between the 2 id take the GTR...
