having said that- I really think that the 675/600LT and an 'all arounder' like the 812, or a manual transmission 911, boxster spyder, or a 720 spider or something convertible really offer such different experiences that it makes sense why people like Sam or myself have various brands represented. different knives for different cuts.

I have a Pista coming at the end of the year. Excited to see how that compares for my current 488 and 720.

as CJ said, variety is the spice of life.

oh and I’m still posed at having to sell my Touring last year!!! Need to replace that in the future.

I don't like the lack of visibility out of the lambos, and I'm only 6'1. This is where the Porsches and McLarens really benefit over the lambo- huge visibility in 720/911.

how do you like the 812 CJ? We had one at our outing yesterday. It’s a beast for sure!

Next two cars are F12 and 720s. I have enough Porsche's for now.

Or is it better to just rent a track with some friends twice and year or once a quarter and enjoy it. This could be just another membership I have that gets used a couple times a year.
