| Need Help: 996, GT40, RS60, AC COBRA, OR DAYTONA COUPE?! I am currently in the search for the perfect car for me. I need one that is easy enough to maintain so that I can have it as my daily driver, but with the good looks & power of an exotic, while at the same time, something I can find pre-owned for much less than $100k, & that will most importantly be reliable & not break down. I have a couple friends with Maseratis, Ferraris, etc. & I know they do not make good everyday cars, there's way too much maintenance, are too expensive even used, & waste too much gas. I had already basically decided that what I was going to buy is a Porsche 911 (996), my brother bought a brand new 997 about 2 years ago, he drives it daily, & he drives it hard, & he has never had one problem with it, & although whenever he does go to the dealership to get anything changed, it is expensive, it's not something he has to do often like you would with a Ferrari for example. So like I said, my mind was set on the Porsche, but recently I started looking into the GT40 replicas & it seems like an amazing car. I have also been looking into the Porsche RS60, Shelby AC Cobra, & Daytona Coupe replicas... But the truth is I'm not too keen on car knowledge. So I would appreciate it if you guys here on the forum could help me out on letting me know more about the routine maintenance required on this car, what kind of money I'd be spending on the maintenance, wether it makes a reliable everyday car, what models I can get used at a better price, etc. I'm looking to buy a car in approx. 4 months, so I need help quick. Thanks!
