A 430 will help your mechanic buy a new DD.
With a Lambo, you won't want to park it anywhere & won't be able to get in or out of some driveways.
996tt is at a low point price-wise because of the IMS problem on non-turbo cars.
997tt - nothing to think about. A gem.
Maserati - My time with my GranTurismo as a DD is like having sex all day every day. Has to be the right color - Bordeaux, white, blue, grey. Black makes it disappear. Fantastic looks, sounds, smell. Bullet-proof Ferrari-built engine & ZF A.T. AND, room for 4 full-size adults. Oh! And, a MUCH softer ride even in "Sport" mode.

Such a difficult choice really .. I was trying to decide between a Gulfstream 650 ( quite nippy) but something about a civilianized 777 seems to do the job better from a luggage point if view. With the 777 I can fly the P1, Veyron and 918 with me, which is quite handy. Still, need space for the mechanics too. Good help so hard to find these days.
Of course, it may all be fantasy like the rest of this thread..........

Speaking of DeLoreans and flux capacitors, for all of those Back to the Future fans... yesterday was the date Marty McFly arrived at when he travels to the future! Yes, that's right... January 28, 2014, and yes, I guess I am that old. Waaaaah! Certainly didn't figure I'd be in a Porsche back in October 1985!

Sorry but that date is a hoax. A quick search on Snopes.com indicates that the Back-to-the-future date is Oct 21, 2015 :-)

Wow, just out of curiosity I searched his posts.
Not a single thread started by him contains any reply to postings members posted on his thread. all the time!.
I find it kinda interesting... most of his posts are about meeting up in out of nowhere....

Probably someone from OT playing a long-term joke on the Canadian forum. My guess is that it's an american from the northeastern states, bored of winter and trying to pass the time until spring comes.
.... either that or Adrian came into a pile of cash and wants to trade in the neon for a lambo.
