I got 99 problems, but the M2CS ain't one.

It's overpriced and my money is on a GT4 all day every day. What poison are you picking instead?

GT2RS Weissach. Better value for money.

I still really want the 981 GT4. I hope those dip in price a bit.

I track my 1M, and with my mods it is pretty close (sometimes slightly quicker depending on driver) than a GT4. As it has become more of a track only car, I have been considering what to buy that could be a beastly back roads cruiser and eventually move into the track car role in 5-10 years. The GT4 has been the natural candidate, but my nearest Porsche dealer is 165 miles away, and the only Porsche capable Indy shop in town closed (owner was offered a job with Currus-Callas Porsche Race Team, crew chief, and is outa here) so all my friends with Porsche's are a bit peeved. I do most of my own work, but I still want local service available.

Hence the M2CS. Local dealer, local independent shops, familiar platform for me, and a back seat to boot means we can use it for family cruises.

True. And it's a real sports car. Less than 3,000 lb. Not overweight like a portly Koenegsigg or LaFerrari.

Also an Aston Martin Valhala is great for the price and tech. You get a wheel for the price of a M2CS 😍

Shit since we're all dreamers here I'll take the best car available. Gordon Murray T.50 for me. Might even get a spare just in case I want a color change.

No worries. I started this thread as a joke. My M2CS order hopefully gets placed today.

My previous thread got deleted. I'm guessing it had to do with a reference to "the man". Which in no way was meant to signify the man as a gender, but the oppressor that keeps others from achieving their desires. It may have been best to approach it as "the man/woman", but associating another gender with oppressive behavior seems equally divisive. All in all I guess the mere mention of "the man" puts further emphasis on the reality of a gender division.

I'm just enjoying that it has lasted this long, and that most have joined in on the joke with some good dreaming so far

LMAO! What happened? I saw you were posting multiple times a day talking about getting an allocation for the M2 CS.

I'm sure you didn't just learn about the price today.

This is why the C is a better value proposition.

One of these. I really wanted Dakar yellow and all cars just get you from a to b anyway. So I've switched.
