You need to do more research, and for the love of God, drive the cars. Also, Porsches don't have V6 unless you get a Macan turbo or something. The sick NA cars were boxers.

FWIW I would suggest a 997 GT3. Or you could get a newer GT3 with dual clutch if you prefer that. Nothing wrong with either route.
Newer GT3s are in the $150k price point. Even the 997 GT3s have crept up in value, a nice example will set you back $120k+

997 GT3 would be my choice
Would be hard to get a good one for $100k

I currently own a 991.1 C2S and this would also be my recommendation too. You might even be able to get a 991.2 under $100k. A C2S is the prefect balance between affordability, practicality and fun and great as your first Porsche.
