I like the posts with thoughts about alternate cars if we lost our S550s. I'm really happy with mine.
Probably 99% I'd buy another 2017 S550. I would be looking for grabber blue. I'd really prefer another GT350, but the price to purchase and consumables are just a little more than I prefer to spend. This would be a tough decision, because I'd say the GT350 was the best car I ever owned.
I like the idea behind the C8, but without a manual transmission it's a no go for me. I'd love a C6 or C5 if I were a couple inches shorter or they had more head clearance. C7 gained a little too much weight for me and I don't like having a removable top on a car that I would want to take to the road course.
A few years old water cooled 911 would be good, but I would want a GT car and they are too expensive for me. There are a few models that intrigue me, but not enough to spend the money. The Cayman is also nearly perfect, but like the Corvette is just a little small. Plus they are also a little too precious.
Supra is a no for me - I wasn't impressed with Toyota when I owned my GR86 and I really don't want another Toyota. Plus, straight sixes are not my thing.
I would buy an E92 M3 if I found one in good shape for the right price (not likely).
I would consider an SS 1LE if I didn't have the Mustang. Mustang is probably a better choice for a road car since they are so cushy. But I do prefer the Ford engine and love how it revs out on track. I would probably shop both and make a decision based on money (I'd probably end up with a Mustang and add a bunch of aftermarket stuff to make it track worthy).
