The 911 Turbo would be on my short list for cars to get in the future. I drove one for a couple days over winter and it felt really familiar to the Z as far as how it handled in tighter corners, but felt a lot more connected and was pretty insane in a straight line. The way it felt while near the limits of grip was very pleasurable, as opposed to the E55 AMG I also drove, which felt like a bus in relation. A really fast bus.

But if I never get rich enough to own a 100-150k car, I'd eventually plan to move to a Cayman S. Its previous generation was the car that the Z was going for, and the new generation is a solid improvement (save for the missing hand brake Q_Q). The Evora and 4C are also cars I've been eyeing, since they seem to tick all the right boxes for me.
maintenance on the GTR is so over rated. yes its a force induction car. but seriously some of the things you can do your self. and on a tight road. can you say grip, grip, grip! your taking corners so fast its scary. the GTR is not a boring car.
