C63 - What next?

[trowelhead]

Hi All.

Currently have a C63 as my only car which ticks all the boxes.

Have just bought a Mini JCW Auto which will now be my fun daily car for most of my milage

So i'm looking for a weekend / fun drives / track toy for when the mood takes me.

I could keep the C63. It's great as a "ticks all boxes" car - but now i have a "daily" car, i could be getting something more focused.

Criteria:

• FUN
• Will be used on road and track a few times per year
• Low depreciation
• Something that feels and looks "special"

Currently looking at:

• Cayman GT4 - would be my first choice, but would require taking out some finance to get there.
• S2 Exige S - would be awesome fun, an occasion, low depreciation, reasonable costs - perhaps a bit hardcore - would the build quality/ride get annoying after a while?

Anything else to consider - an Evora i suppose? (the looks don't do much for me)

First gen R8 v10 worth a look. good mix of usability, performance and wow factor.

Maybe a 997 GT3 or 987 cayman R would be cheaper option to GT4 and arguably more analogue/involving experience.

Ferrari 360 would be quite an ownership experience, although running costs and age could be an issue.

Other end of spectrum as Lotus 340R are very cool and track ready, new Exige 380 looks like a weapon.
