First of all I call it a hiatus because I've owned 3 and I'm trying not to get another until the new comes out. That has been challenging! Had a Lotus Elise, Z4M Coupe and then an XKR which is what I have now. Almost traded the XKR for an R8, 997TT, GT3, New Viper etc. Since I finally broke down and bought some wheels I really should keep her longer and enjoy. She's lowered, sounds insane with my custom exhaust, pulls harder than you can imagine (I pulled away from an R8 V10 for example on highway).
But... I still miss the NSX a bit. I miss shifting my own gears particularly. Hence the almost move to the cars above. Now I've started an MBA program and also bought a house which is sucking up funds like an elephant at a peanut buffet! I really should behave for the next 2 years so I should either stay put or buy something under $80k.
Do I:
1) Keep XKR until 2015 NSX and get one as my graduation gift?
2) Dump XKR for a 997.1 TT or GT3
3) Dump XKR and get NSX again but would have to do 04+ because I've had 3 with popups and now time to go with new generation. This means nearly 997.1 $ with much less power than those cars and WAY less than my XKR...
