As title says.
Looking for a new toy. Any choice would be in Manual Transmission only (don't want pdk/auto)

Thinking:
  • Camaro ZL1 1LE
  • Corvette Z06 (Z07 pkg)
  • 911 GT3 (pccb pkg)
What's your opinion ?

Use: mainly track, a bit of street (not thinking on getting trailer)

The 991.2 (newest) 911 gt3 is a monster track car that can still go get milk and you can get it with a stick, im a big vette fan but i think i would take a gt3 over a new Z.
but the "zr1" or what ever they want to call it should be here soon and i could only imagine that its goals are to keep up with a new Ford GT on the track so that might be worth waiting for.

More street car oriented for the 100k market that are over looked
Jaguar F type, but they have gone all wheel drive and i think zf auto only, so that sucks.
Aston V8 Vantage, about as nice looking as they get specially with the GT package, not the fastest track car tho
Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio, pretty sweet looking car and can out run a M3, id love to see one in person
