    In your opinion, which car combines the practicality of the 911 turbo s and the exotic of a Ferrari ?

    Tough call really.

    Maybe the new R8? Very sharp lines, AWD, mid engine.

    The 570 as mentioned is close too.

    I own an FF and the GTC is not that big difference ... I feel the FF or GTC is more of a GT car rather than sporty car

    There is no car that does it better than the Porsche 911 Turbo S. I really like the new Audi R8 V10 Plus, but it's really no more of a daily driver than the 488 GTB.

    I agree.... I own an FF, 488 and a RR SVR.... I used to have a 911 turbo.... I miss it's practicality

    Turbo S is great DD. But boring to look at and just boring (minus speed) to me.

    Dumped mine after 4 months.

    Looking to add FF. MUCH more interesting to drive DD IMHO.

    Agree.

    Also Aston Martin DB11 or Vantage, but more of a GT still.

    Don't underestimate the practicality of the 488/458. The 911's rear seats are only useful for small children or for additional luggage. But the boot space in the 488/458 blows the competition away

    488/458 - 230l
    911 - 145l
    R8 - 112l
    Hurucan - 100l
    650s - 144l

    Whilst most would say this doesn't matter in a supercar - it really does. We would have never been able to take my R8 away for a week and fit everything in - we can easily do it with the 488.

    I did the same, I found the Turbo S to be boring to drive. Insanely fast but boring to drive.

    These cheap McLarens are all exotic looking.
    GT3 RS>Turbo
    Audi R8 and NSX much further down the rung.

    Agreed.... 911 is very boring w no engagement at all that's why I dumped my 911 turbo after 9 months

    I currently use a M3 (which I highly recommend) as my daily driver, but i have an allocation slot for a 991.2 gt3 which will become my daily driver when it comes in.

    Not sure there is a truly practical exotic out there.
