I'll have a tough decision to make when the GT2RS comes out.

+1 for regrets on getting rid of my 997TT. I am going to try to buy my old one back.

Mine isn't going anywhere.

These cars are very special and are on their way up.. not to air cooled territory, but are true drivers cars.

I have contemplated selling and frankly for me it is because I want to try different cars. I have car ADD and I see something I like so I want to try it.

I drove a friends 2005 Murcielago a few weeks ago for a while and after that couple days I can say that there is nothing other than the amount of attention and the cool doors that the car does even close to as well as my 2008 TT. MUCH slower, uncomfortable, interior is garbage and doesn't even sound that good.

I sold the Porsche for the same reasons I sold most of my other cars. I wanted to experience different cars. I usually stay in my cars between 1-2 years. I will say though that the Porsche is probably the best car I've owned next to my e92 m3. I think when I'm done exploring I will go back to those two cars and be very happy.

Drove a Murci Coupe and Roadster (both LP-640) and felt the same exact way. Both cars were e-gear and the handling and performance were a disappointment.
