    Mine;
    Either Aston Martin V-12 Vanquish S
    OR Trade in the 996 GT2 for the 997 GT2. Incredibly I'm one of the few that find the 996 in turbo body to be better looking than the 997 turbo its just that the 997 GT2 has nannies if I want them and better seats.

    Still a couple of years away but the cogs are turning.

    I'm turning into a dedicated Alpine nut. If the new sports car makes it to the u.s. it will probably be the one car I would ever put a deposit down/pre order.

    In the next 2-3 years, hoping the following get to my preferred $150k budget:

    Lamborghini Huracan LP-610
    Ferrari 458 Italia
    McLaren 650S

    In that order......

    Should be easy for the Ferrari since it would be 5 years older. Both of the others can be had for $210k today. Might be too optimistic they drop $60k that fast but who knows.

    Hoping to upgrade to the Lotus Evora 400 Targa in about a year or so unless I grow impatient and get the coupe sooner...

    Ferrari 456M, 612 or Cali. Wife is pushing for the latter, but I would like a V12 2+2. Fingers crossed!

    My budget is far less than that of most here, probably something more modern like a C5 Z06 or S2000.

    If I went more classic, the a Giulia sedan or 964/993.

    I think the next car is gonna be pretty normal, nothing too exciting.

    Wife wants a used Mercedes CLK350. Just looking for the right one at the moment.

    I'm leaning towards the Mustang GT350, but not sure I want to own the same car as 75% of the men over 65 in SW Florida. (If I want to match the other 25%, just need to wander over the a Chevy dealer and grab a Corvette.)

    Sooo - - - pretty up in the air for now. No Ferrari in the near-middling future.

    If I were to go into the $70,000 range, I'd be buying an F-Type Manual Gearbox in a heartbeat.

    I do want to buy my friends A110 really badly though too.

    If I spent less, I'd look for a clean AM Vantage


    Any of those three really. If I sprang for a big money buy, it would be a McLaren 570S. And somewhere in there I owe my wife an E46 M3

    612 or FF though the latter is still out of range.
    Dreaming of a 275 GTB and a 458CH
