Dark Side...Light Side..Heck, I don't know anymore...

Well my M6 has another new stable mate for now...

M6 is fastest
991 drives the best
California looks the best

Going to keep the M6 (leased and wife loves it). Prob. sell the 991 or California (or both) in the next few months. Decisions decisions...

Which do you like the best?

It's a 2010 with 10K mi. Absolutely mint car I picked up at the sale last week. I bought it to sell it but I sort of like it. Not as fast as the M6. I drove the M6 for the first time in a month or so the other day. Man did those DP make it fast. Reminds me of why I used to get out of the M5 and say "wow!". Glad I swapped them over before trading the M5. It does look pretty though and the SOUND! OOOoooooohhhhh!

Only reason is I started doing a little wholesaling with a buddy of mine just for a hobby. Will definitely sell the California Might do the 991 though too because I can pretty much drive whatever is for sale and flip for a profit a few mos later (like the California-I own it pretty cheap).

So...I keep telling myself this to keep from buying the Turbo S that I want.

I would sell the Cali as the M6 is already a soft top, 911 hard top (best of both worlds). However, as Cali has folding tin top……..decisions, decisions. Would like to be in your shoes

Agreed. That and the wife would never allow me to take the M6 away.

Plus the 991 truly is more fun to drive. The California REALLY does have it's fun characteristics though. The garage always smells like a Ferrari. In person the Rosso Corsa paint is INSANE! And that leather! The exhaust note is about the best I have ever heard. Growls and screams. It's sort of like driving a roadster with a lot of muscle and it handles a lot better than expected too. Best part is you always get parked right out front when you valet....and chicks dig it

Nice damn problem to have...........dude I showed my girl your car yesterday and she said oh shi@. Oh course I get asked what are you coming home with and I said nothing until 2015. You know o will say keep the 991S. I was itching for a 458, bit up keel is a bitch so I will leave on the Pcar world for awhile. GT3 is the hottest car coming out with performance, and looks. It takes you to space up the board again ........Ferrari is still hot, but a true chick magnet. Have fun, and get the wife in the car(:

So when will you be traveling while the GF is at home?-lol!

Hahahahaha man. We need to hook up soon. Like I said yesterday, keeping the 991 for sure. May not look quite as sexy but when you get out of the California and into the drivers seat of the 991 you say "aaahhhhh"....much better engineering overall and far more "driver's car" feel behind the wheel.

And we both know that you have EXACTLY the SAME PROBLEM as me-lol!

Nice stable

The 911 looks awesome and muscular
The M6 is a great mix of handsome curves and muscular stance
The California is the most feminine looking of the cars in your stable (a car that suits a good looking woman behind the wheel )

All the above IMHO of course and others might see it differently

Nice cars! 911 is hot. 991 turbo is hotter . I would keep the 911 and trade up to the 991.2 facelifted turbo in 2 years. And keep an m4 as a backup
