I don't like the 911 because of 9/11. You should consider a Cayman because the Cayman Islands are pretty nice.

Normally I’d say the 911. But you should get what YOU want, not what I want.

Money is no object? 911. But if money was no object I would vote none of the above.
If I am spending my own money probably Corvette.

A 2020 lotus Evora GT with the carbon fiber package and titanium exhaust but that is 119k. So, I’ll keep my 2017 Lotus Evora 400 and ad to the garage the 2020 C8....my first ever Corvette.

911 is kind of vague. Are you talking about the $97K base or the other versions going past $300K?
