Why would you buy a GT3 to go to the gym or go buy wine? Buy a used Bentley Continental Coupe, you'll get a whole lot more curb appeal and they're more suited to going to the gym, or the State Store, you can pick up your friends in it and have lunch. You can buy a mid 2000's one for cheap and they're starting to reach the bottom of their price decay curve. Maybe a Maserati Quattroporte, again lots of curb appeal, great sound and you can buy one that's a couple years old for peanuts.
Why not a 2016 Cayman GT4 or a 2016 Boxster Spyder ? I find those two to be the most entertaining modern Porsches. You can buy a CPO one and take the warranty risk off the board.

Why a GT3? Because she is cool and loves fast cars. Back in the 90’s she raced motorcyles. She willingly gave that up when pregnant with our first...
Why not a Caymen or Boxster? Original premis is that I am looking for something that will not bleed depreciation as it sits for most of its life in the garage. We have the money but I am never comfortable feeling like i am wasting it unnecessarily.
The other cars, while having curb appeal also come with more of a snooty factor and less of an enthusiast vibe.
