Ok so anyway yes got completely off to the wrong foot with the last thread.And come across as an utter tool - I see that now.
To avoid the last thing happening twice. I'll come clean to you all.
It's my fiance's dad that will be bank rolling the car and we'll be insured on it as joint drivers. Yes he's the sucessfull business man, that has the cash to spend - not me etc etc.
He currently has got us two cars to share a Scirocco R 2010 model and a 911 Carrera 4s 2009 model. As we rarely use both at once cars and he's cutting the funding on both cars and cutting us down to one within a much lower monthly payment budget than the two combined.
We are essentially looking for a car we can have some fun in, that has great performance.
So far we have looked at a test driven the GT-R, XKR and m3 coupe . Ultimately the GT-R is the best performance car - but looking at running costs, tires, brakes , insurance we can't see this being a viable one car option for the pair of us to use for shared day to day use.
Got some good informative replies from the last thread - thanks Fett and others who helped. And yes ultimate a hell of a load of cross questioning banter that hey kept me and others amused, and hopefully that will be narrowly avoided by giving everyone the full story from the off
.
The m3 I felt was good, but driving it directly after the GT-R felt ultimately disappointed - even with the power button pressed just didn't seem half the car. Acceleration with the power button off seemed like a boring saloon car, quite felt like falling asleep behind the wheel at one point.
Thanks all.
