I mean at 30 you still got some time on you. Maybe invest then retire at 40 idk maybe a thought since your considering investing as an option.

Vote for GT3 /RS & Ferrari (458/488/ Portofino/F12)

I'm shopping that range too for my midlife crisis, waiting for Huracan Evo prices to come down to earth a bit. Kinda bored of Porsches and GT cars now, though if I was offered a MSRP 992 GT3RS allocation I wouldn't say no...but impossible. There's just too many cars that should be in that range but isn't due to the current market, but it'll get there. 488s are getting there but I find them boring. 600LTs are a great value at current pricing imo.

Avant? Nah those fell off with the new model but yes the gts turismo seeeesh

Ford GT (2005) though idk if those are now untouchable

993 Turbo or 997 GT2

Dodge Viper (4th and 5th Gen)

GT500KR

A80 Supra with REALLY big turbos

Ford GT isn’t within budget

I personally would get a fully specd taycan turbo s or RR cullinan.

I once heard that the average age of those that achieved a net worth of a $1M was around 49 yo. Is this intended to include assets like real estate equity or is this meant to be liquid assets / retirement accounts only?
Understanding, $1M is no longer the goal but for those of you that have achieved this already - What was the age you achieved it and are you including your home equity?

911 Carrera S vs GTS

I really want to do a low key spec on my next car but it’s almost impossible to spec the GTS without black wheels/accents turning it into a more aggressive looking car.

Thoughts on if the GTS in a 7 speed is more engaging than the S enough to justify the compromise in wheel selection?

Q to car gurus/experts- should I defer purchase/lease for 6 months? My logic, the impending recession will reduce demand and we will go back to more balanced market (lower prices with negotiation).
