New to this community, what a cool place. In the next 30 days, I plan to purchase a new daily driver.
Use - semi daily driver, dont really have a regular office commute, so wont slug it out in daily traffic, or long commutes, but does need to be usable as an only car.
Condition - new, not used (I have my reasons)
Price - $100k -/+, not much more
Size - need at least small back seat for small kids, more room better, but not mandatory...i.e. the 911 is technically big enough back there
Requirements - needs to be fun, unique, sporty, wont get tired of it, looks good, fun behind the wheel, etc.
I have owned BMWs, Audis, Porsches in the past. The candidates:
C63 AMG Black Series - was able to snag an allocation based on a relationship I have, deposit down, base car, not a lot of track options, etc. more the "subtle" spec version of this car if there is such a thing. Worried about still is it too raw for daily. ~ $105k with my discount.
RS5 - able to purchase locally or nationally, several available. Worried about the bored factor. Had an RS4, was a cool car, but eventually felt a bit boring. This might be different given body style, DSG, etc. ~ $80k
911 GTS 4 - I know, sacrilege to some to drive a AWD 911, but as a daily driver I just think that this is a very usable package, albeit the smallest and least practical, most expensive of the bunch. Several available at deep discounts nationally, puts it tied with the Black for price, ~$105k
Not worried about gas mileage. Given these three options, which would you pick and why? And no, this isnt my only input on decision, I am just curious where people would lean and why. thanks!

Not a lot off. $1500 off. But I have purchased a lot of cars through this dealer. Right thing for them to do.
