I saw the GT3 on top gear and wet myself. The Carrera has a great engine but Im not a huge fan of the look for some reason. I just doens't look like a Porsche to me.
For me I would L O V E to get a Suby STI (2007, not the new piece of poo). It would do everything I want and more and I could drive it year round, just swap the rims for some snows. Through a few mods at it and it would make me a happy man. Of course my neighbours would hate me becuase in my ears an un-corked boxer engine is one of the best sounds in the world

At this point I would settle for a used 2002+ WRX, but the wife isn't a Suby fan
