Have you drove an I8 yet? They look cool but the performance imo is not there. I would hold off and go straight to the 991 Turbo. I just picked up a 991 Turbo S (Cobb Stg2) and the car is amazing. Does everything well and love the awd. Best DD you can get IMO. The Z4 is my weekend fun car when the weather is nice (rare in Seattle)

The Z4 is never going to perform at 991 Turbo level. I run Pure stage 2 Turbos and methanol and the car is fast but traction limited and you must run a heavy duty clutch to handle the power.
