At times I've also thought about trading it in for something more powerful, but the reliability , build quality and rarity of the car always has me changed my mine. It's just a fun car to drive and easy when you want it to be.

When you hear Matt Farah says he wants one and Doug Demuro saying it's a great used buy, it's probably worth keeping for the long term.

You know what, as a daily driver I prefer the Accord (so smooth) so the GSF just sits most of the time. Thinking about unloading the GSF and maybe getting a 718 as a weekend toy. Help convince me otherwise!

I have a 17 R8 V10+, and even on the weekends I have a hard time choosing which one to drive.

Also COVID is not gonna last forever, and the used car market is not the best right now for sellers (weak demand, unemployment, and Hertz flooding the used car market)

I rented a 981 Cayman last month for a weekend on Turo and that experience taught me that I love practicality. When I think about sport cars now the only place I'd want to drive them is on the track. The best car to me is the one I can drive everyday!

So now I'm in the GS F forum looking to upgrade from my F Sport

It has 100K, two owner, but it was a very very clean car inside and out, it looked to be a highway driver. White on Stratus is the color combo I want as well. Gonna make a decision here in the next couple of days.

If I don't pull the trigger, my F Sport will get some suspension mods for the time being and I'll re-evaluate getting into an F sometime next year. Prices have crept up for sure.

I remember seeing F's with about half the mileage for the same price as the one I was looking at 2-3 years ago. Seeing the price creep has been real. There are also just a lot of features missing from the GS F that I have tough time swallowing - no power trunk, no rear sunshade, no brake hold, no heated power steering. I also really want AWD.

And to top it off, current interest rates - gave my credit union a call last week and they said 5.5%! When I bought my 350 I got a 2.75%.

The F was just a very very tough sell for me.
