If 2011 is a good year...
 
Looking ahead to 2012...and a bigger garage.

What's the vote between:

1. 2010 Porsche 997 TT - coupe w/tiptronic and chrono -
- possibly with AWE 750 kit
- always wanted a TT in my lifetime ever since I had a 85 Targa

2. 2010 Audi R8 V10 - coupe
- stock
- love the looks but always thought the V8 was always wanting

3. 2010 MB CLK BS
- maybe headers and roll cage
- great drive and with the headers and mufflers massaged it sounds hellish


4. Nissan GTR
- with Cobb upgrade

Hey,

Ok for starters If I have to be truly honest, number 4 is automaticaly out for me. It's a Nissan the 1st choice would def be a great one next to number 4. The 997 TT is class with balls. Than again comes option 2 and 3 which are both mazing cars. This is why overall I would have to vote for number

****3**** why? Because you have 2 beautiful Benzes another black one would be like Batmans garage. This would make your car collection one of a kind.

I forgot one more:

5. 993 Porsche Turbo S

- a F***ing classic
- still holding it's value too

okbarnett 12-17-2010 11:33 PM

If youre looking at any Porsche, go drive a PDK. It is a completely different car than anything youve driven before. The PDK makes the car feel like it has 50 more HP automatically.

It would be the 993 turbo s for me, i,ve had 2 993tts and a 996 tt but still feel i have missed the best one they ever made bar the 959

happy motoring bc brit

2010 CLK 63 BS? When was this beast born? Do you mean 2008 CLK63 AMG BS? If so, a great choice!

jmejones 12-18-2010 12:18 PM

993 Turbo S

jmejones 12-18-2010 12:20 PM

btw...you've inspired me to upgrade the audio and navi...going with Sony XNV-7780BT head unit, your amps, and JL speakers/sub all around...stay tuned. Hoping for Jan 2011 install.

Avoid the 2010 like plague. Get a 2007-09 (convert the lights if you love the look) then do the 700 hp deal. 2010 (997.2) won't take anywhere near that power on the stock case.

Stand corrected :y!

DCMETRO22Z 12-18-2010 03:17 PM

I'm not sure the 2010 911 turbo has a tiptronic gearbox.It has a PDK (Much better)

okbarnett 12-18-2010 04:33 PM

Theres both in 10, the PDK is a option or on later cars

Rick SL55 12-18-2010 06:26 PM

993 tt, there so much engine upgrades for them you will love them once is tune.

I own a 1986 Porsche 930S and planing to buy a 1996 Porsche 911tt.

Best of luck to everyone too.

I know you wont leave the exterior stock lol like me as well, so my vote is the 997 TT.

I like the manual option as good as fast as the PDK is.

The AWE 750 kit OMG, I've seen it go on the freeway ( takes out just about everything I've seen) and is straight ridiculous...SOOO FAST.

cal1 12-19-2010 05:22 PM

I have not driven all of the cars on your list so my input is less than truly objective. I drove a CLK 63 BS at road Atlanta this summer. What an awesome machine it is.

AdrockTT 12-20-2010 08:48 PM

Audi R8 V10 with URG kit (like GTT). End game.

AMGfan 12-20-2010 09:31 PM

After speaking to the tuner house (C2Design), I am leaning towards a white CLKBS in matte CF exterior details OR a black Porsche 997TT PDK. Now I need to bust my arse this year to finance this dream garage...:rolleyes:

I guess I like having a project cars...:X

Big variance in price But, if you want opinions... Here is my 2 cents.


1. R8 V10 with TT kit. Game over x 2. :naughty: (On my list of most wanted cars)

2. 997.2 TT (Crazy out of the box performance and fun to look at)

3. GTR (I like this car a lot. Best bang for the buck)

4. CLK63 BS (Slick ride, unique, sounds mean)


Oh yea, +1,000,000. GL to everyone in 2011. It's going to be a good year!

Sharkster 12-22-2010 12:20 AM

I would go for the 997 TT. Great ride..., incredible power and a very reliable daily commuter too.

nlpamg 12-22-2010 06:40 PM

Best of luck to you.

I don't have the insane garage like you do, but I am looking to change the M5 next year and two of my choices are pretty much the same... either a 2010 997TT PDK or a 2012 GT-R or the upcoming C63 AMG Black Series.

I'm heavily leaning towards the GT-R. I don't care what people say about it being a Nissan, the GT-R is a fantastic car. You can say the same thing about the upcoming C63 BS, it's a $100k C-Class. I don't care about status, I want something that I find fun to drive.

Either way, seeing how you've modded your cars, you won't be making a wrong decision :y

kamilclk430 12-22-2010 07:25 PM

Go with the CLK BLK Series, you will not be dissapointed. I love the idea of flat white, however the black will def match your other rides.
