£100k ish garage - the best combination?

[911Spanker]

Current cars are a modded 996 C2 with a 3.9 Hartech engine, modded Elise Sport 160 with lots of trick bits, a caged Caterham Superlight and have a GR86 incoming.

2 kids aged 4 and 6. Should I sell the lot and get a 996 GT3 and a S204 C63?

Love oversteer and a manual gearbox. And loads of feel. And it's all about driving - to hell with practicality (at least when the kids are this age).

The cars are 95% road cars and need to work in that environment.

The C63 will be an auto so not manual although it will be fairly tail happy. I have a 205 generation C63S coupe and it's great fun but it's an auto only as well.

If you want a manual, tail happy handful of a car I would look at the M2/M3/M4 from the last generation.

lovely garage
you chose 2 lightweights for a reason, wouldn't you miss them?

I had a similar garage (Elise, Caterham, Evora, GT86 with other practical cars). The 86 was a car that served a purpose whilst being fun. I'm a big fan of the 86 and the GR more so, but with an Elise and an Evora it was never a prime fun car. Where would it fit in for you? not sure a 6 yr old would fit in it for a long journey either. From your OP I'd say "hell no!". either squeeze the kids in the 86 or get an older C63.

Sounds like you already have a pretty perfect garage anyway!

Keep what you have.

Why have you got a GR86 coming?

Threads like this deserve pics.

Modified 996 you have will already be as good as the gt3 anyway really, presuming you have the suspension setup to go with the big engine. Personally I would ditch the gr86 and get the c63.
