911 GT3 and 9934S - happy with that combination and feel very lucky

Pondering a Boxster GTS or Cayman GTS but as I spec them up I get to £75,000 - no thanks

So ..... what next I wonder and oddly I fancy something comfortable for motorway driving, all used cars about 2-3 years old + £45000 budget
Audi S8
MB CLS 63 AMG
Audi RS6
MB CL63 AMG (big car!)
BMW M6

Needs to be fast and comfortable and not Aston or Maserati ..... does not leave much !

Thoughts ??

I had a Panamera for two weeks while waiting for the GT3
Way toooo big for London as its too big for anything - but awesome presence

M5 ? What vintage ? The new model
The older ones are beginning to get good money but are now 10 years old

The real Bentley Turbo R or similar look totally stunning but big again
M5 is smaller as is the RS6
Not quite sure why a Boxster or Cayman don't excite me
Spoilt by the GT3 no doubt

Well I have a 9934s so with the GT3 I am very lucky
Is it getting older that I hanker over comfort with all the toys ?

Great - many thanks but can't help thinking of a CL63 AMG
And that's after me saying a Panamera is big !!
The CLS is smaller but just misses it because of the 4 doors
Not sure why a Cayman or Boxster doesn't do it

Yes it's the CL that seems to be the choice
But now find out that there are only 24 CL65 AMGs out there
V12 beast at £160,000 new
Blimey that's GT3 money !!!
Anyway thinking of ditching my Boxster Spyder deposit as my chances are negligible I'm told
And I may be too old for bucket seats anyway ...
Who said a Panamera was too big
