I have been a member/lurker here for a few years and value the opinion and feedback of this community. I was hoping to get some opinions and advice surrounding my situation.
I am looking to purchase my first enthusiast sports car in the spring. The car will be used for weekend getaways, track days several times a year, taken care of obsessively, and driven to cars and coffee every Sunday morning that I am in town.
My budget is 40k-45k. I am looking at cars that will be coming off their leases, so the 2009 MY's. The cars on my radar right now are.....
Porsche Cayman S
Cadillac CTS-V
BMW M3
The intangibles of these cars are what I am most interested in. Specifically...
What are local owners doing? Track days? Driving Schools? Weekend cruises?
Reliability and after market support?
Official owners association? ex Porsche PCA chapters
How is the online community?
I enjoy meeting new people that share a passion for their cars and enjoy driving them as they were intended. With all that said what car offers the best experience?
