[A Need For Speed]

2020 992 Turbo S. No question.

[JM5W]

The Merc AMG GT 63S 4 Door will possibly do it for you. The E63S AMG is as close to the same car as the BMW MSC that you can get. The exhaust note is the only thing that Mercedes beats BMW on. An aftermarket exhaust will fix that.

If you like Porsche, a Panamera Turbo will give you the 4 doors, luxury and sportiness/speed/fun factor you are looking for

Nothing. I just want a GT3/GT3rs parked next to it.

I sense, it's in the works! Are you getting ready for the 992 gen?
I tried getting an allocation at MSRP for the 991.2 with no luck and I don't want to pay anything above MSRP.

Next will either be a current-model G63 or else a combination of something like a 4runner and a lightly used F12.

The M5 is really, really hard to beat as an all-arounder.

Anyone taken a look at the amg gt63s?

For me personally of vehicles out right now, a 2011 GR3RS would be one of the few cars I would trade for. Only problem is my 8 yo daughter loves my race cars and no back seats in the RS.

Thanks a lot for all your inputs.

The Maserati is very nice but I tested a Granturismo for week and I agree it's a nice GT but it's a hit slow.

But do acknowledge that the engine sound is from an other world...


Still haven't found anything yet suitable yet but no rush as no plan to trade the Black Beast before mid 2020

Any other suggestions?

I like the 991 option as I've never own a Porsche.

Any comments on the FF or California?

How about the new RS6 ?

What year and was it a GT, GTS or MC?
Cali is nice, but Portofino, much better. You check that out?

As far as me personally trading, I have my other "toys" (MC being one) and wifey has the X7, so I would be specifically looking for an apples to apples trade. I intend on getting a M5comp next, but if it was another marque, it would most definitely be a Panamera. I've owned many Porsches in the past (Cayenne, 911 and currently an '84 Targa) and really love the brand. I like that they lifted the rear on the Panamera, it now truly looks like an extended 911, which was the initial intention.

I'm thinking about the 991.1. I just have to get rid of one of my other cars first, lol.

[Outlaw1]

I was looking at an FF, but it’s absolutely insane to own one maintain one and drive it $$$ wise. If you put 10,000 miles on that car you’ll lose half your money

Here in So Cal you can get 3-5% off MSRP. My friend ordered a 992 Carrera S in May @ 5K off a 145K MSRP and picked it up a few weeks ago. Car drives Great !!

Sorry to confuse you, we were discussing about GT3/RS allocations at MSRP.

The Taycan is an awesome car. However, the range of the Turbo model has been officially rated at 323 KM (202 Miles) by the EPA. This is outrageous !!! The Turbo S model has a range even lower. Questioned on those less than stellar results, Porsche's people answered: ''It is what it is ''

It would be more charging, less driving! I had the Taycan reserved almost 18 months ago but I had to pass when dealer called me with an allocation few months ago. 200 mile range is not practical and winters will be worse.

Just came across a superb Continental GT Supersport (2011) convertible.

Does anyone has any experience with this ?

Any comments ?

[Salespunk]

Definitely a GT3 or possible just a standard 992 so I can take my daughter and wife in the car at the same time.

I have had a bunch of 911s and Caymans and have a 718 GT4 that should be here in July. The M5C is leaving and likely to get another Macan (would be my fourth) - another GTS or possibly a turbo.

[BwoodBMW]

For me the current debate is M5C vs 992S or 4S.

nothing else sub $150k really excites me unless I really switch gears and go G-wagon which is obviously scratching a different itch.

[JDC PDX]

I considered trading my '19 M5 Comp for a new Raptor (need a pickup), until I got trade offers from several dealers. Oof. I thought my McLaren depreciated horribly...

I guess I'll hang onto it until my Rivian RT1 arrives.

[subterFUSE]

RS6 Avant would be very practical for me, since I refuse to own an SUV.

I also love the Audi R8, but not much room for my golf clubs.

Good feedback. The M5 is an amazing vehicle, but with CV19 I am working from home and don't expect that to change anytime soon. As such, I can get something even more focused on enjoyment and less practical. About to list my M5 on Swapalease.
