Advice is highly needed

I love 996's with aero kits. My brother had an 02 which i fell in love with without the aero kit. I've seen some 3.4's in the high 20's with decently low mileage(30-50k) and a few 3.6's in the high 30's with similar. Now my question to you is, i have an 05 MV Agusta F4 which has been my dream bike since i was 17 and first saw it. I did a few mods but the problem is, it just sits in my garage and collects dusts because NY weather has been either too damn hot to ride or raining every afternoon when im home from work. Its beautiful and its retardedly fast...but its ridiculously uncomfortable and unpractical.

The question is...should i sell it and have a nice 12-14K down payment on a 996 or keep it and smile every time i walk into my garage. I think i'll smile either way but at least with the Porsche i can take my fiance to dinner when she's wearing a dress. What do you guys think, 996 or one of the rarest superbikes?

I got my 996 in Feb. My 1995 heavily modded Ducati M900 is sitting in garage not even prepped for season right now. People that know me have been, "where's your lover?" It is kinda sad but I cannot drive my Porsche enough. I keep saying that I'll get the bike ready....but has not happened. It even crossed my mind that I could sell the bike and get all new suspension, bumper, wing and skirts.

So I think you can see where I am leaning.....GL

pay for the 911 in cash so if the bike gets you closer to it, then great.
