Mate, if Cessna thought there was future in piston twins they would be building them still.
not cheap either but at least beechcraft are well built and don't need that many bits from the manufacturer.
hmmmph had both B58 and C310 operating alongside each other in the fleet, which is why when it comes down to money and considering they cost around the same new we ditched the B58s. AND the customers consistently asked for the C310 and there was that little problem with bathtubs and wing attachment on a design that went back to the 40's.
I did say it was his call, but I know where I would be putting my hard earned. But then I'm biased by the economics.
