My GF drives a 2009 911 Turbo. Nice car, handles amazing, I love everything about this car because it doesn't need to be pampered.

The upkeep has been minimal but having said that, there is still relatively low mileage on the vehicle. The oil changes and regular maintenance are not a big deal but we don't go to the dealership, I have a buddy who is a certified Porsche mechanic so he doesn't void the warranty when he does the regular maintenance and oil changes.

I would say IMHO the Porsche 911 Turbo is the best supercar you can choose if you intend to drive it a lot and get a lot of use out of the vehicle.
