I've tried to buy a 911 three times ... first time I came out with a DB9 ... second time I listened to wifey and waited for a week and when I went back it had been sold ... third time, well I bought a Jag instead ... this time I shall do what I want

Budget?

 

Tbh I wouldn't even consider an RS4. Sure, a nice car, but hardly a thrill a minute. The C63 has the most charismatic V8 engine of the last 15 years in it, but an E90/2 M3 has it licked in dynamics and it's available in a manual. New Mustang would also be an excellent car, but I'm not sure I could choose it over a C63.

 

i just find modern german v8s so :yawn: There too monotone, They like to go to work do there job and come home, they don't enjoy themselves they take themselves way to seriously, if they where a person they would be the sort of person i would want to work for me, but wouldn't want to be friends with.

 

Sounds like you are describing Dan and his car.....

Good luck. I have found myself at Cridfords twice before but I keep chickening out - not the cars - just the potential monetary implications if anything goes wrong. My Jag was, at least, cheap :lol: and I have very helpful independent specialists nearby. But when I see Porkers like the one you are buying I am strangely tempted again. Resist, resist.

something about them you just can't resist... all versions are just on the money in terms of looks.

Nice one Hugh, congratulations on your purchase. I'm sure you will enjoy it, I bought a 987 boxster s a few months back when going to look @ a 350, I have most certainly got the Porsche bug & will undoubtedly be upgrading in the near future. :drive1

M3 gets my vote. The new mustang will just attract the wrong attention and not be as good to drive, the Merc will no doubt be the most expensive to run (assuming cost is important) and the Audi, well, the RS6 got voted the most unreliable car in Britain by the 2015 Whatcar annual review.

 

In fact, as a company out of the 35 companies tested, Audi came 33rd, VW about 30th, Seat 11th and Skoda 4th. So out of all the "reliable, well built vags" only the Skoda beats it's "less reliable" Ford, Vauxhall, Renault and Citroen counter parts (I can't remember where Nissan came) Personally I think Audis are very nice in terms of build but this myth that they are engineered beyond the need for worry is just not true. Also, when compared with the M3 it's no where near as good to drive, they are front heavy and generate massive fun killing understeer (on the limit of course). I would still have one just for its image and noise, plus I haven't heard any horror stories for the RS4. But if it's a drivers car you want I think the M3 is very very hard to beat.
