Gotta tell ya. I got about another year until I trade in my 04M3 for a new one.

Since I use the cars (997S and M3 for rural highway driving) I think the 997S is going to be left in the garage alot more when I get the new m3. I'm not doing hairpin corners, I'm merely passing slower cars on curved two lane highways.

In a year or so later I'll get the TT and trade in the 997S, then we'll just relegate the new M3 to airport runs.

When you think about it, HP AND handling is what makes a car on wussy (drive 55) US roads worthwhile. Porsche has no monopoly there. Though I prefer Porsche, I'll take whichever German Made/engineereed car that has more HP/TQ. Hear THAT Porsche?
