I’ve decided to sell my gt3. Fortunately, I will have visitation rights, since i’m selling it to a cousin.
I am keeping my 11 e90 m3 and will utilize it as a part time daily driver and fun car. I drive about 70 miles a day so adding a more fuel efficient daily is my next purchase.
I checked out the 987.2 boxster s and caymans and think their great! But I think something cheaper overall would be a better move for me from a cost to maintain standpoint. Are 09-10 CS’ cheap to run or similar to my gt3? The thought about being Porscheless is a bummer, but that’s life.
I recently drove a 2007 s2000 and thought it was fun and raw. However, I had to drive it at 6k and above to get it to move quickly. Not sure if that would get old daily. I am looking for an ND Miata club w/ brembos and recaros to test drive as well. Is a BRZ worth looking into as well?

Tony kart. Ideally a shifter kart. Waaay cheaper than a gt3. Quicker. Harder to truly drive fast- will elevate your skills. Cheap tires. Will hardly use brakes. Nothing else as nimble or responsive. Strong resale. Boatload of smiles. Can take to the track in the back of an SUV
