. No kids so a 2 seat sports car works. And bang for the buck, the 'Vette is untouchable. Since I just beat lung cancer in 2012 I'm buying because I want the car (was honestly all set for a S4 or to possibly wait for the new M3/M4). Saw the reveal and that was basically the end of the decision process.

Just comes down to the coupe now or wait a year for the 'vert and/or 8 speed auto. Porsche has always been on my dream list but honestly, a friggin' Boxster loaded up now is $85K or better! Not to mention $500 oil changes and $140/hour labor charges for service :nono:
