That said, you cannot get a Turbo for a reasonable price. That is a bank breaker.
Dude, they're as common as Bimmers in the burbs out here, and this city is no economic wonderland.
Porsche and Ferrari are not in the same group. Well, maybe the GT is inthe same group with Ferrari. Ferrari is for the cat who truly wants some exotic, tempermental hand made street legal race car. The upkeep on those fuckers is awful. The standard 911 is a mass produced vehicle.
Cat up the street from me growing up had a couple Ferraris. Those things are pieces of art. Porsches are scattered all over any golf course parking lot (standard radiologist's ride, common as a 7 series). A buddy of mine who races stock cars in LA giggles about Porsches. He considers them great cars, but basically just VWs on roids.
I don't like them. Never will. But this is just my crazy opinion. If you dig 'em, hey, have at it.

I would just like to add that the ultimate midlife crisis mobile these days is the Motorcycle. Or pre-midlfe. The need for these things tends to hit men in their thirties from what I have observed. I won't say it screams, I have a small dick, but I will say it screams "Please give me some excitement and thrills, as I cant get any on my own two legs, and life didnt really turn out as I had hoped, and is this all there is?". Porches are fun. THese things are a huge turnoff.
