Let this key your interest. 2009 C2S with BBS RSGT wheels and Sharkwerks center muffler replacement pipe. Car handles great, is comfortable on long trips and with the Sharkwerks mod a little more Hp much better sound and a weight reduction low and far to the rear of 10 lbs.
I optioned for Limited slip, PDK, adaptive sport seats, Nav, bluetooth, Bose, Heated seats ( absolutely required with our backs) and IPOD Artic silver with sea blue interior. I have 5500 miles on it and the grin just gets better. At 70 i get 32mpg with the PDK and DFI engine Wow. I drove the PDK at the Porsche Sport driving school and if you aren't a believer before that will convince you it is the future. Going back for the Masters course in September and will request a PDK again.
Bottom line the new C2S is not a GT3 but as close as you can come and a bit more comfortable on the street day in day out yet as exciting to drive as you want on the track. ..... and if you want more just let Alex and his crew work their magic. Also several hundred pounds lighter than a turbo.

the turbo and c2s are awesome machines. But i think deep down you want the GT3 (again).... since you got a secondary car anyhow.... the GT3 is liveable daily anyhow... 
(watch for ground clearance issues)
and i think the 997.2 GT3 would do it for you.

Paul go for a GT3RS...what the heck you live once so really live it up! That would be a heck of a fun car...but you have to do a few DE's with it or you will not enjoy the car or life to it's fullest.

I sold my AMG and yes I took the biggest hit I have ever taken on
a sports car but I miss my 911. Since my back is better but still a
? I think I am forced into a TT. I think thats the only mature choice.
Probably be getting serious in Aug or sept. I was going to buy an 07
but a 08 is probably now in the picture. Since I am a mature experienced
911 buyer I will be taking my time and looking for a modded one. I found
a nice GMG modded one in Hollywood but the guy wont talk to me. So since
hes a dealer in hollywood he probably thought he was going to make a killing
but that aint going to happen so off to the next one!! At least my
RC Helicopter flying is getting MUCH better ( I am getting more than one
flight off per crash) I have something to do till then. If any of you brothers find
or see a killer deal let me know I would appreciate it but no hurry. I am kind of caught in this 07-08 quandary.
