99% of the population are looking outside themselves for happiness and personal satisfaction and fulfillment, and that's why some people go through car after car thinking the next one will make them happy.
It wont happen.
Happiness and fulfillment come from the inside. Once you figure it out you will stop the silly search for happiness outside yourself.
Secondly, it's a really good idea to have an attitude of gratitude.
You should feel grateful just to be in a financial position to be able to buy a $150k Porsche, as 90% of the population could never afford one.
People who go through car after car never satisfied, are generally not grateful for these expensive toys they have in their life.
Work on yourself first, before thinking about getting another car.

Dr. Phil, is that really you calling yourself Maverick1? I appreciate your insight into the universe, only issue here is automotive related.

No worries mate.
Maybe an automatic is just too boring for you.
Good luck.

How about a Carrera GT? I went for drive in one the other day. I don't think you can get more "viceral" and "raw" than that!

Yes, yes but no...

Do you think I'd have a problem driving that thing? Too rare and I've seen way to many GT crashes!

I am a long time p car owner including multiple turbo cars. I have made the switch over to the n/a cars and they seem to stay with me a little longer. Who really cares what others think...buy, sell, drive, enjoy! The new 991s is a great car. Mt favorite car right now is a 2007 GT3RS.

I had a 1995 993 a few years ago and I'm thinking about looking for another one. That was such a cool little car...

What I would give for a colada...

So, Singer Porsche not an option?

I can understand the 993 urge... I still miss mine but in my case, I think I will get a long nose Porsche before looking againg for a 993 C2S...

This is the ultimate under the radar car in So Fla.

p.s.
Those Singer Porsches are very very nicely done. But man do you pay up for those man hours. You're nearly on the doorstep of an Aventador. (no point in getting any Lambo without the V12 -- that's like finally dating Pamela Anderson after she had the implants removed).
