My Chairman had a hard top Bentley GT for 2 years then got the DB9 in the summer.
Had it 3 days gave it back ordered the GTC and had another GT for 5 months on loan from dealership and took delivery of GTC 2 weeks ago.
Said DB9 was a animal but lacked the quality of the Bentley. When I was able to sit in the DB9, I would agree, for the money the quality is poor to others of similar value.
but you will change it within a few months so what the hell

Recap of what I've had so far....
All started with a 306 XSi
Managed to roll That. I was working for Subaru at the time, so although only 18 managed to get my hands on one.
They were very rare still then, and nobody knew what it was!
Kept it a while and just got bored, so took a complete change!
After about a year I got a puncture, when I arrived to get it fixed a shiney Scooby was parked up, which got me thinking! REMEMBER THAT TINY! I BLAME YOU FOR THIS!!
Then decided to take the scooby to Germany.
I really started getting into the whole touring Europe thing, and the scoob was getting killed with all the miles.
I also got destroyed by a diesel audi on the autobarhn, so really needed a car that could sit at higher speeds.
M3 was much better on the long runs, sometimes doing 4,000 miles in a week. Insurance was very high due to my young age.
I then started getting into the Nurburgring, and knew my M3 had to be replaced but something a little more special!
CSL is the most amazing sounding car ever, on the track is was supurb, however I was still into GT crusing around Europe.
The CSL for me was tricky on the road, the wheels would follow any cambers and pull you about, I tried swapping to road tyres
and getting the aligment done but it was still not great on the road. And then my fears where felt when I stacked it into a ditch!
I decided I wanted 4wd again, as I was nervous after my crash. I also wanted something that looked more like a 'proper' sports car.
I had 2 black 996's turbo, firsted one was 'tiptronic' and only lasted a week before I swaped out to a manual.
Looking back the 996 Turbo was a great car, but it just lacked 'soul' it felt cold to drive. So I knew it had to go...
And then it happened! Went to a routine trip to the dealer ended up with this, it's the very car stig drove in Top gear...
This is the most amazing super car I've owned, but with that came the most problems.
Just like the CSL on the road it was pulling me all other the place, and it would ground out on anything other
than pure silk tarmac. This is a track car, and I was trying to use it as a GT car, which sadly, didn't work.
I decided I needed something that could easily get into multi storey car parks, not attract too much attention, but
still excite me, so it was back to BMW.
And something for the weekends!
M5 is the fastest car I've owned on the road, it was king of the autobarhn, but my god did it drink!
I was getting single figure mpg's and I was finding the car way to big. I woke up one morning and decided
I was giving it all up and I wanted a Golf Diesel! I viewed about 5 GT TDi's and just couldn't go through with it,
so decided to compromise...
Took it straight to the ring, and I got blasted by a 2.5TDi audi on the autobarhn which made me cry!
On the ring the car was rubbish!
I managed to find a cancelled order RS4, took it for a test drive and felt at home as soon as I got in...
The RS4 is my favorite car so far, it just does everything so well. But, 3 month itch is setting it...
NEXT?

Depends on your budget suppose...
You obviously like Porsches and they are within you budget, if you are doing day to day driving and what track day I would go Porsche. Resale value is better on certain porsches than Lambo's if you change so quick..
PS I know nothing about cars only what I read.
And just remembered, I know of someone who can get the type of cars you are looking for (liget), early and for good prices as my company directors get their cars from him.
