Companion for 957 GTS
Not sure where to post this, this is a continuation from my thread in the Cayenne 957 forum https://www.6speedonline.com/forums/cayenne-955-957/327706-c6-s6-similar-955-957-cayenne-turbo-gts.html
Well it has been almost exactly a year since I last bumped this thread. I should probably just create another one but oh well here it goes. I still have the GTS which I still love, I finally got around to doing a full 2.75 x pipe exhaust similar to my s6 minus the secondary cats. Intake will be going on soon as well, love this truck! In sad news, my s6 was totaled last September, it's funny that after i had it almost perfectly modded/maintained and convinced myself to never sell it that happens ..
So now I'm looking for a new companion. I'd like to keep the price under 30k as I'm pumping most of my money into my businesses these days. I would like something radical to the gts, the problem is the gts is such an all around performer its hard to find a car to fill its gaps. Anyways here's my list, open to opinions:
1. D3 S8 (I know much the same as my s6 but hey it's all aluminum, has more lux, and same great motor- I'd do a header back exhaust, full intake and tune this time at Jhm)
2. Audi rs4 (seems to be a nice split personality car but it wasn't nearly as comfortable as my s6, and I've heard most people say they're gts feels like a lifted rs4*)
3. Audi S5 4.2 + Supercharger (seen 11.1, pretty impressive and nice mix of the two cars above for a decent cost)
4. 996 S/C4S X51 (hard to find x51 package especially under 30k and most 996 are tired and I hear performance wouldn't even be that great coming from the gts and my former e60 M5)
5. e60 m5 or M6 manual only (the e60 m5 I formally owned was the most love hate relationship, most of the hate was the smg in day to day situations, so I'd like to try out the manual m5)
6. 2010 Jaguar XFR (great performance with tune and pulley ~590hp, however I don't see this car ever being a classic and I'd like to choose a car I'd keep for a very long time)
7. None of the above, sock money in biz, and buy a v10 r8 in 2 years or less
Although 7 is probably smartest, I figure that I only live once, and I miss my duo of cars with split personalities. Interested to hear everyone's thoughts.
