It was for me. Now I just get a new SUV every year instead of a new SUV and a new weekend car every year. I got very lucky though. I bought a 2012.5 in June of 2014 when values were at their worst, people will still butt hurt about the loss of the 997.. The newest 991.1 S you can find now is at least $20k more than I paid for mine in 6/2014.

That said, YMWV -- and the 991 is a very different car than even its predecessor. Drive as many as you can!

As much as I love the Cayman, I still prefer the feel of a 911. I just sold a friend a 718 Cayman GTS. It's brilliant, but again, I still prefer a 911.

Very true.
