if my income/worth stays the same, i may entertain a GT3RS at some point. if i get lucky somewhere along the line, CGT. if i get luckier from there, lambo miura.

The cars I listed above will be DDs assuming I'm not married and haven't started a family before the age of 30. If I somehow end up with a wife and kids in the next 7 years, swap out the Porsche for an M5 or CTS-V.
really? I always thought you drove that POS in your avatar pic
When I'm home in hawaii I drive a '01 Ford Explorer thats pretty beat up as well.. Just waiting to get back to STL to get back to the G.

Its very likely that I'll be in my G37S until a few years after I finish med school and residency. My parents have already told me they arent buying/helping me buy another car so I'll just have to wait until I have a disposable income of my own. If I had that income right now, I'd probably buy a '08 997TT.. but I won't have the opportunity to get in a new ride (at least not an upgrade from my current one) for another 6 or 7 years probably.

Sucks doesn't it? Can't have too much fun with the one you have because it needs to last you. I know the feeling.

yea tell me about it.
I drove an explorer all through highschool and I have nothing against it, but I would hate to have to trade in my G for something boring.

E39 540i wagon or A6 4.2 wagon within the next 6 months, although I love my f250 so much I may end up getting an Excursion diesel and put some go fast mods on it

Within a couple years I plan on getting a Superformance Cobra with a race spec bored and stroked small block (around 400 ci) or an aluminum big block. Sapphire blue with white stripes and original size halibrand knock offs.

So far I'm so happy with the speed of the bike I have just not thought about cars at all. Well, I have ... but then I go "eh, that's not so omgijustshitmypants fast after all".

Might end up with some marshmallow old people comfy sedan as a winter beater ...
