Nick what are you doing surfing the net looking for Turbo ? you're just experiencing a Winter Blues
On the other hand...
1. Better to get it now. Much harder to justify an expensive toy after the kids come.
2. Turbo/GT3 engines are much more reliable/robust than the M96 engine -- so less potential worries.

Funny thing. I was just looking at 911 Turbos on AutoTrader yesterday myself and noticing how many nice ones are below $60k. I even think I saw a couple CPOed in the mid $60k area.

I dunno. More power is always nice, but my toy car has to be a convertible and the Turbo converts don't look too appealing -- prefer the Boxster look much more. Add to that the mid-engine advantages, and we may have a wash here. Or until the next visit of the rascally power devil in my head...
