Can there be an Option #8? As in if insurance pays you anything for the bike, you could pool that with selling the Subie, and see how much you'll have.

If I were you, I wouldn't rule out a nice used BMW or Mercedes small wagon. Yes, they're not 911s, but they'll outperform your Subie while returning very good value and offer copious amounts of space.

It's funny, but whenever I consider a brand new car, I always forget the costs of tax, license, and registration. Then there's depreciation which is an afterthought only when faced with selling that same car a few years in the future.

Also, I suggest a wagon because, in my case, I'd be less tempted to modify a wagon in lieu of something like a Cooper S, a WRX or STi. Of course, if you want to modify another car, mine is a moot point.

Now, how about an Option #9 and 10? Sell everything (or everything but the Porsche) and buy a true dual-purpose car in case the Porsche breaks or you end up selling it in the future.

When I write dual-purpose, I mean something you can use on the street for passengers and carry cargo, as well as use on the track. I'm thinking RX8 for this choice if you want new - I've seen them selling brand new for $20K - they're fast, hold four, handle but have to be driven agressively to realize their capabilities - like a 911.
Or if you want a nice used dual purpose car, again, secondary Audi S4s are around; there are tons of BMWs for sale, and don't rule out the AMG C-series Mercedes. I've driven an older one, and found they are nothing at all to balk at.
