No tips, but I saw the GT4 on MotorTrend this weekend and it looks like a fun little track car that can be driven on the streets!

Both previous posters recommended the GT4, not GTS which has about 45 less HP than the GT4. Mostly the same car though about a 9-10k price difference as well.

I love the Camaro, however I'd even still go with the GTS, or think about upgrading to the GT4 if money isn't a problem.

That being said...if you're looking to spend 75k on a car, then going to 80-85k isn't always out of the question. And if you're in that price range, what are you looking for. Performance or comfort? Or both? You can get a 2016 Corvette Z06 for those prices, and maybe that would be a better option than the Porche?

So, quick answer to your question. Go with the GT4. Long answer...consider the better car at that price...the Corvette. This is someone that has always wanted a Porche, and has a 40 year long bet with his brother as to who will own the first Porche.

For daily use or just as a toy? I can tell you from first hand experience that the Boxster/Cayman is an awesome toy but wears on you if you have to drive it daily.
