This is a fun to see what other cars we have.

2009 C4S is for warm weather (unless it's a convertible type day), for either my husband or me to drive

2010 VW Eos is for top-down temperature appropriate sunny days and cold winters (giant glass moonroof warms up the cabin nicely), mostly driven by me

2013 Audi TT-S is what my husband's drives most of the year

2007 Toyota RAV4 is for hauling the entire family around and big snow days, that we both drive

My DD is a 2008 Subie Outback . Wife drives a Chevy Suburban. I drive my 2010 C4S on the weekends . The dings my Subaru gets while parked at work in Philly only reaffirms my decision .

My stable:

2005 C2S
2007 Honda Civic for work commute (164 miles)
2008 Acura MDX w/ entertainment package

The road warrior (aka Civic) is a great high mileage commuter, with 40 mph highway.

The MDX is a super family wagon with all the bells and whistles to keep the kids quiet on long road trips.

And the Porsche, well, you know, it's a Porsche.

My DD is a 2013 MINI Cooper JCW hardtop. My wife drive's a 2014 MINI Countryman All4 JCW.
There are several folks in our local PCA region who drive MINIs. The John Cooper Works cars are actually a lot of fun.

In my family we have two Tahoes (a 99 and a 2013)and two Subaru outbacks a 99 and a 2004) to go with my 997.2. There are only two drivers! The old Tahoe stays at a mountain cabin and the old subie at the beach. Hard to beat the Tahoes for boat like comfort.

OP.... Scratch that itch & get a 997.2 if your finances at all allow it & your other essentials are covered! Life's too short to procrastinate.

Other cars: 2006 Honda Ridgeline. Ugly as sin but reliable as all heck. 180+K miles.

Wife's toy: SLK 250. Fun little 4-banger. Hard top convertible is nice feature.

My toy: 2011 997.2 S coupe. 31K miles, 11 of them mine....T

My daily driver is my 997 turbo cabriolet. My wife's daily driver is an Audi SQ5. My sons drive Subaru Foresters. We are currently shopping for a full-sized pickup truck for dog and back country fishing duty.

My other car is 2002 BMW Z8 that I drive most of the summer as the DD (over 94K miles on the clock) and on great early spring and late fall days. The Porsche is the DD the rest of the year. My wife drives a BMW X3.
