2018 720s - msrp 300k - selling for 230k and has 6500 miles. (25% depreciation / 70k loss / 2 years)

you are paying for the exotic experience, doors going up, engine on display behind your head, and paparazzi treatment when you get a 720s. Because pretty much every lay person will ignore a 911 when a mclaren/lambo/ferrari is around. This can be a good and bad thing.

Personally i'm over it.
My dream attainable car purchase has always been a Porsche (next to an M). Narrowed it down to either a 981 Spyder or a higher mileage 997.1 GT3. It would be a big jump from an M, and still debating whether one of those is worth double what my Z4M and E36 M3 cost combined (E92 M3 would stay).

My question is, what would you replace your Ferrari with that comes even close to its character? Reason I ask is because for the same price as those cars I mentioned, you could get an earlier Gallardo, but the attention might get annoying when you're just trying to go out and have fun. For what it's worth, I think you have one of the coolest fleets out there.

My buddy has an F430 and it's pretty amazing to see how much attention that thing gets in a place like South Carolina. It's all been positive though.
