Josh I understand your point about a $100k GT4 not costing as much as most $100k cars when you factor resale value, but I tend to put some miles on my stuff and a four year old GT4 withi 60,000 miles is probably not going to hold its value too well. $100k would also mean a bank note and I just feel like I'm past that point in my life. I dunno.
Yeah, I am not trying to convince you that it's a good idea to lay out 100 large for that car. I think the 3.4S is probably fine for the street, and the fact that you're not certain about keeping even that car makes it doubly silly to buy a much more expensive version. Plus for you especially if you decided the 3.4 wasn't enough, there are a lot cheaper ways to hot rod it than buying a whole new car.

Just musing that 100K for this car isn't as nuts as it sounds at first blush.
