If I had £300k to spend on a car, I wouldnt of bought a Porsche lol. Regardless of power and luxury its still a Porsche, boring to me but then again i'll never own anything that expensive haha. I'd much rather have that lovely V8 anyday.
Think its a Mustang but I cant quite make it out on my phone hehe :D

Got to be honest that's a really nice porsche
But £300k no way would I give that money. So many other cars I would buy with 300k.

Apparently there was only 65 made RHD and he knows his cars, reckons it will be worth £500k in 5 years so more of an investment. Just sold one for £180k that he paid £80k for.

After thinking about this.
Yeh you could get a stunning lamb for 300k.
But they will just start going down in value.

This will increase. So not actually a bad investment if you can afford it.

He's right, it's very likely that it will go up in price like so many RS Porsches at the moment but God what a shit colour, any other colour would have been better.

The problem with that Porsche is you have to be a real 911 fanboy to know what it is, to 99.99% of people is a standard 60k Porsche with a big wing on the back.

If I had that kind of money to spend on a car, I'd want something that felt truly special and individual, not just another 911.

maybe one of these
