yea I guess it all depends on the resale of the 2012 GT-R next year and of the p-cars.

GT-R = Don't commute on this machine.
M3 = A dime a dozen 3 series. Not that unique for your budget.
C63 coupe = Never buy first-year products... Plus, again, not that unique.
12 Boxter = Too much of a chick's car. Can't stomach the exterior regardless of how neutral-handling it is.

great points! I definitely think the GTS is what I want, but it really all depends on how much they are going for next year.

yea it really isn't a first year product. I think this is my first backup after the '12 GTS, '12 GT-R, '10 GT3.

I had 2 997 TT's... heavy lame feeling cars .. pretty fast.. but need exhaust mods to get and sound from them.. I lost interest in them very quickly...
my 997 gt2 was a blast but out of your range for the next 8 yrs
My 996 GT2 was the 2nd best track car i have had.. but by no means a car to drive around!!!! lol
all 911's are great cars .. just dont drive a 997.2 GT3 and you wont notice how much better they are!! lol
I am not a fan of the GTs over priced made to sell off inventory of parts ..lol i dont think worth the money....
the best bang for buck next summer will be a ZR1.. im not a big corvette fan but an awesome car for the money...

Thanks for the help! Its definitely great to hear from someone that has had it all, porsche wise lol. I doubt the 997.2 gt3 will be in my price range, but I may hold out until the beginning of 2013 for one if that'll help. Because all I've heard was really great reviews about them. And I plan on heading to the track more often in the next few years.

I suppose since you ruled out an Aston, you probably wouldn't want a Jag XKR, but they are pretty sexy looking. And in the XKR (or especially the new XKR-S) guise, they are fairly unique looking. Interior would be great, but they may seems a bit like an older-person's car.
Another idea would be the Lotus Evora ( also an "S" version coming). Certainly unique though doesn't have the all-out speed that you seem to be wanting.

Or perhaps a CTS-V coupe?
Of course the Z06 kills them in track performance...
You're probably not this crazy, but a Tesla roadster would certainly be unique:

all great suggestions. Z06 is great but the interior is lacking for me, I don't like the CTS-V's styling, I'm not crazy enough for the Telsa lol, I am really not a fan of Jag's and they do look like old people cars, BUT I didn't think about the evora. I'll definitely look into that actually!
Thanks!
