...I mean, have some perspective here.
I could land that car here for about the same price as a local 997 so my perspective is very different to yours. (Aussie dollar is very strong right now)

$203,000 Car price + shipping
$20,300 GST
$2000 to $3,000 Various import duties and taxes.
Total price before on road costs... $225,300

PDK Gear box... Yea it's nice but more to go wrong down that track. (I've driven one)
PASM... That's for people who can't drive a high performance car without getting into trouble.

It really depends on how you want to burn money. What will a 997 be worth in 5 years time?
I absolutely guarantee you the Singer will be worth more.

Meanwhile it has everything I want in a car and nothing I don't.
