the answer to this question is definitely to buy an 01 TT for about 80 grand. Then you can decide how much you want out of it. For the extra 40k you can have an unbelievable street/track machine with about 600hp, Brembo Le Mans brakes, JRZ coilovers, etc.

Yes, but you must consider where you are going to store all of the panties that women will throw at you while driving your 911 turbo.
