Default seriously: 2009 Scuderia vs. 4.0

So, I was looking at some 4.0s that are still out there. One of them is a ridiculously optioned white car with adaptive sport seats. I would've just gotten white, blk interior, black wheels, sport buckets, and PCCB. Obviously, no more allocations so, I just have to deal with dealer inventory.

anyway, that car is about the same price as some of the 2009 Scuderia's that are for sale. Look at this one, 640 miles.

what do you think?

I'm sure rad will come in and tell you exactly why you need to buy the scud. I do love the white scud though

well, if I did get the scud, then yes, I'd keep the 3.8. If I bought the 4.0, then the 3.8 would have to go.

it seems the scud is the better deal. I do like the 997 body style though. Doesn't stand out as much as the ferrari.

If you are keeping your 3.8, then the Scud will be a great garage mate

Scud does look very nice but so does the 4.0.
I like the 4.0 more for several reasons. We all see it our way and it's your money.

Alternately enjoy what you have and pick up a 991 when its version of the GT3 is available.

Really? $195 for a low mile car? Any particular options that I should look for or avoid?
