What car would make you want to sell your 991?
For me, the only car that interests me enough in the current Porsche lineup is the GT3 Touring, if I could get a new custom order at MSRP. It is starting to look like this won't happen though, so I guess mine is a keeper.

Nothing... I'm too far down the rabbit hole on mods and emotional attachment making my car perfect. Potentially a 4.0 Spyder but that is doubtful even. There are faster and more capable cars but none as perfect as mine

Probably a GT3 or a nicely specced (PTS) Targa 4S. I have the same complaint re GT3 as the first poster: I'm finding this whole asking premium > MSRP irksome.
Edit: my assumption here is w/in range and not completely OTT like McLaren Sennas and what not

I love my current TTS. I would most likely go for another but right now mine is perfect.
Not interested at all in Lambos, Fcars, Jags or Aston’s. R8 is a beauty but would still go Porsche.

ok, I’ll be the contrarian. Emotional attachment to a machine isn’t my thing, Assuming I came across a killer deal on a Ferrari 250GTO, a hemi Cuda or 440 Daytona, ‘63 split window Corvette, a Speedster, or any number of vintage cars... my GTS is gone. Among current generation cars, the Mercedes AMG GT R was a coin toss for me when I bought my GTS. The Lotus Evora is a car that I would swap my Porsche for. I should add a Z06 Stingray to the list but modern Corvettes don’t sit well with me but I do admire how much performance they deliver.

Nothing at all. I need a backseat for my kids so the GT cars aren't really on my scope. Maybe, maybe a Turbo S down the road but the premium over a GTS just isn't worth it to me at this time. I ordered a GTS that is exactly spec'ed as I want - not really another car out there that I would rather have.

Of course it's spec'd perfectly. Didn't you check every box but the Door-sill guards in Leather with stitching in Deviated Thread?

Im gonna say none because Im just not willing to spend the money. Dealer will order a GT3T for me at +$15-20K. Its not worth it to me. Or they will order a 911T for me but my spec is about $130K. Again not worth it to me. Im not saying those cars are not worth the price, Im saying they are not worth it to ME.
Im just gonna keep and play with my 90 964 for now.
I might have some sort of mental disorder. Worked my whole life to amass a good little sum and now have zero desire to spend any of it on any of the things I always wanted.
