As for the car, I'll get more serious once I sort out the living bit. Part of me says get something sensible for road trips. The other part says get something fun. I usually default to the latter.
Don’t want to steel your thunder….
I also sold my 997.2 GT3 last week after 14 years of ownership. I don’t usually get emotionally attached to cars, but that one was special. I specified the car from new and factory collected it.
My OPC asked me when I took it in for a service if I’d be interested in a change? “I only buy GT products, and don’t like paying over retail” was my response. The next day they rang me to offer a GT4RS build slot in September. Still not sure if I did the right thing, but it was time to move on, and after driving a GT4 in the Alps last year, I thought it would be an interesting new purchase.

I sold my 993C4S in Australia in a similar way. It had been in for a service and they called later to ask if I was interested in selling. They wanted a very stock car for the anniversary celebrations a while back. I had the option to buy it back 12 months later. By then was moving to the US and used that money to buy the GT3. Cars are expensive in Australia and the AUD was stronger, so I didn't need to add a lot more.
