id have a 365b and have 5 years off mooching about the place looking dead cool and eating chips mit mayonaise.

[rumplestiltskin]

Lambo Gallardo
Aston DB9 (are they £100k yet?)
997 TT
Ferrari 360 plus some change !

Depends what you want from the car, eg 997TT everyday car, Ferrari not so. Gallardo running costs high, 997TT not so etc etc.

993TT or C4S for everyday duties and a nice Miura for dirty weekends away with the missus (or the mistress)

I think you might be a little ambitious with your £100K!

2.7 RS for me.

[turbobloke]

An early Diablo and a 996GT2 might just sneak under the wire

[magriggs]

A nice one-bed flat somewhere?

There was a burgundy '66 Miura for sale in San Diego recently for US$139,000 - clean, original car from what i understand from a friend of mine who went and looked at it. Okay, so that's £80k, so maybe a 993 C2 would have to be the daily....

Well other, SL65, which now used, are in the 100k area,its quicker,best looking,and convertable,however won`t press your `buttons` round the twisty bits!

[verysideways]

Wonder if you can get a Murcielago for £100k....

Ah, but you said a `nice miura' - I suspect $139,000 would only buy you trouble!

anyway, nice choice...

[DaGinge]

996TT (~50K) + Mk1 GT3 Clubsport

Is the 997TT going to be that much better than the phenomenal 996TT?? It is the ultimate road-going supercar, And the GT3 for track days and that raw porsche experience.

Yeah, a mistress will cost you loads ;-)

Yeah, thinking about it, you're probably right.

Okay, lhd 993 GT2 for *fun* and E34 M5 for daily duties.

A black Lamborghini Gallardo with a sports exhaust.



In fact if anyone wants to swap a 997 and a 965 for one and a spaceship miles 5 series please email me!

[patrico]

996TT X50 and RS6 for me please.

[jdh1]

How about what I've already got...

996GT2 + Noble GTO3R

They cost me a little more, but that's about what you could buy them for now. Offers in a sealed envelope!
