Cayman S, probably, with a Techart GT wing on the back. Possibly a 997S, if the sun, moon, and stars align properly.

I've considered going back to the S2000 and supercharging it but I don't think it's going to appeal to me much after a while. I prefer stock reliability and ease of maintenance...

That is a really tough question. I really don't know. It is hard to find something quicker than the Z06 on the track...and I am not sure I am ready to cough up the dough for a new GT2...I think I will trade in the E46M3 for a new E92M3...that should keep me happy for a little while...

EDIT: people...look at the first 2 pages of this thread of way back 7 years ago...I thought it was funny in 2002 how people were talking about the new C6 and the new C6Z06...and STi...and EVO..and all the cars that were hot hot hot then...and still on the drawing board...

I saw a Techart body kitted Cayman the other day. It looked REALLY good.

I'm really surprised no one (at least those posting after 2002) picked GT-R as next car.

New car?

Hell no, I'd prefer to keep my current setup:

08 Honda Fit
05 Honda Pilot
04 Honda S2000

For at least the next 10 years and save all my money.



Eventually.... you get sick of the car turn around grind. Learn it from the old people... don't do it... enjoy what you got now and save your money.

370Z offers a lot of possibilities and they'll be relatively inexpensive in two or three years (used). I always buy used so it would also be on my radar. I think, overall, I'd prefer a Cayman S though. In two years, an '09 Cayman S with PDK should be in the $40K range and that's what I'd LOVE to get.

When I'm ready to buy, I'll drive them all. I love the solidity of the Cayman S/Boxster S but I've yet to drive a 370Z. I don't have a Porsche dealership within two hours of me, so that's always a consideration.

Well right now im thinking about selling the CR in 1-2 years picking up a used Ap1 and a evo. But if not i might just save my money keep the CR for a long time and mod it a little here and there. The longest i have kept a car is 2 years
