The newest Porsche is always the best Porsche . 981 for sure ! if they do a spyder or Gt variant of this car it will make the current spyder a distant memory. A current spyder owner would never even consider a 986 ?

In terms of the most cutting edge technology I think you guys are right. As far as "the best" Porsche. If you have a CGT, or a GT2 I'm thinking you are satiated beyond the payoff period if not then go for it, myself I'm sure to be happy a long time, years from now. I liked the 986 every spring like it was the first drive.

Fixed it for you.



I don't know about you guys but I'm actually doing better now financially speaking than I was five years ago, yet I don't see the sticker price on a new Porsche quiet the same anymore. I don't know if the value of other things have gotten so much better like depressed home prices and cars like Hyundais that cover all the bases that your run of the mill 3 series BMW used to, but dropping $70 to $120K on a new Porsche that is sure to lose enough value to buy an older Carrera outright make me see the newest Porsche car in a totally different way. There are just too many other things you can do with your hard-earned caysh that you couldn't think of doing five years ago.
