I know a guy near me that drives his CGT several times a week during the summer as well as participating in DE's. Never an issue. He loves it. Same holds true with the other three owners I've talked to.

I think your old man kind of screwed the pooch on this decision...but, hey, it's not my money (unfortunately).

J-RAD, why wouldn't you touch the Audi? I haven't driven one, but just about everything I've read on it says it's better than a 911. That's saying A LOT.
