In 1990 I sold my MR2 and bought a used 1987 911 Targa black/tan interior 37K miles for about $30K. It was a beautiful car and fun but it had numerous problems and the handling was iffy. Most disappointing sports car I ever purchased. About a 14 sec car. I sold it and in 1992 I bought new 1991 Supra Turbo for about $30k, I think the sticker was $31k. Exceptional car, not great acceleration or handling but fun and rock solid. Drove it 4 years without a problem. Again about a 14 sec car. My next sports car was a new 2001 S2K purchased in Feb 2001 when I finally found one at sticker which was $32k. That car was so good and so much fun that I drove it for 19 years, 67k miles. It is hard to describe how exceptional that car was but still about a 14 sec car.
I sold the S2K in Jan of 2020 and purchased a 2019 GT 6M, mostly a base car, 6k mi, for under $29k. WOW!!!! I cannot believe I paid more for that 911 which was such an inferior car. You younger guys and gals just cannot appreciate what an affordable performance bargain GT is. 460HP and 12 sec 1/4 mile. Four sports cars over a span of 30 years and the GT is the cheapest and quickest by far!
