5. If you can live with those same certain compromises, revert to #3.
6. If it's not for you, then seek the Corvette/Porsche that best suits your style and tastes.

... not trying to be a jerk or highjack the thread, but am I the only one who would NOT let someone test drive my car, were I to sell it? Maybe it's just me, but there's no way I'm going to let a stranger with unknown background & driving experience get behind the wheel of my little 615 hp monster. I never drove a Cobra (replica or otherwise) until 3 days AFTER I bought mine. It did not leave the garage until registration and insurance were fully in place. It's surprising what you can learn from the passenger seat. I zeroed in very quickly on what I wanted after a few "test rides".
