+1 Pothole.

I have had an obsession with Porsches ever since childhood. When it comes time to part with the Box S, I may well buy a 996TT 996GT3 or a 997 C2/4S. I am moving from Australia at the end of this year to a place where I can import a US car and pay very little import duty so the jump in cost will be insignificant. Just the decision of what to get will be difficult.

As for owning a Ferrari, I have cousins and friends who own 360's and 430's. They seem to love them (and have the money to maintain them, unfortunately I do not) although for me the ultimate would be to buy a brand new GT3 or maybe even a Carrera GT. I like the Turbo although I have always been more of a fan of NA engines.

Either way, even if money was no object, I would stay loyal to the Porsche marque. I would just enjoy being able to afford brand new ones, and more than one at a time.
