I'd hit it...
Why did ya choose to get a new one?
I was planning on buying a Porsche 997.2 GT3(or a Turbo) but Nissan lured me back by increasing the horsepower in the new GT-R to 530bhp (from 485bhp), tweaked the suspension, and made launch control a real feature that doesn't void warranty. It's suppose to run a sub 3 second 0-60 and get to 100 in 7.

Because a GT2 is way too much money and is impossible to get. Plus its one of those cars that just end up being garage queens. No thanks. I want something that I can drive
A Porsche GT2 is an unhinged 6 cylinder twin turbo. Its stupid expensive. The regular GT2 is $200k, real wheel drive, and has 530 bhp. The ultimate GT2 is the GT2RS. It has 620 hp and is $250k. Valley Imports has one on the floor now. Its sick. Older GT2s were nicknamed "widow makers". Very difficult cars to master.
A Porsche GT3 is a pure track animal. Its a naturally aspirated 6 cylinder vehicle. It has 430 hp in its base configuration and 450 in the RS version. They run between $120k-$160k. The GT3 is considered by many many people to be the perfect track car and the best 911 made.
I don't know what you mean on the GT-R question. The tranny is definitely only for the GTR. Its about half the reason the car has such out of this world performance.
Costly piece of equipment. $20k to replace. -
the blue is definately a nice color!

Just a question...why would you buy a GT3 over a GT2?Is this the GT-R that has the transmission made specifically for the car, or did they finally learn to not do that?
they keep vdc on and reflashed to increased shift speeds, newb. now you can launch four times before a mile and a half cool down victory lap are required. when it costs a fifth of the sticker price they had to figure out how to make it work.
i agree, though, that is the best color yet.

So was that your GT-R cruising down main the other day looking dirty as hell?
If it was, even in all the dirt and grime, it still caught my eye.

Cyril Figgis: Call girl!
Sterling Archer: No Cyril! When they're dead they're just hookers!

Very cool car, and I'm with the herd on this one that color is killer.
