What fun car would you buy to finish off your fleet?

I need more defined characteristics. Does it have to have more than two seats? Do you really want to spend the full 60K, or would you rather spend half that?

If you want to spend the coin and you do not need four seats, it's hard to argue with a 987S.

Clean 06 CayS in the low 50's. (or a boxster for the 'vert fan)

if you need a 7 seater, sounds like you 'might' need vestigial seats in the rear, too.

CPO 911.

It is getting harder and harder to configure a reasonable Atom for < $60K, though - mine was $65K when I bought it and would now cost $85K and heading towards $90K.

Meh. After trying mightily to talk myself into one, I've come to the inexeroable conclusion that CPO 911s are just an unappealing value proposition. Yes, they are fun. Yes, they are cool. Yes, they are Porsches. But do you really want to drop 50K on a 2003 911? I don't.

so what does that leave you with because you and TD are in the demographic where you guys would like to have the back seat area 'just in case'.

i'm curious as to your thought process on this.
