    And yes you are right. I've had many coversations about all cars with him and and i've asked him what he thinks of the GTR etc. He agrees they are bang for the buck but thats about it. Sit in the GT2 or take it for a spin and you'll see.
    I see. You must know that Porsche are very secret about the way they sell cars. They do have the highest profit sheets so hats off to your friend. But like i said, the listed msrp on a GT2 is ~ $240,000.

    To build an R34 to be faster than a "Vette" a Z06 or a "ZR1"?

    Your coming out at this from the street tuner mentality.
    This is the same "i can build a 9 sec civic and be faster "
    So what? The vette is still a better package than the civic.

    I will say that the GTR even in R34 gen is a good car but this debate is still on what is a better car from the factory.

    I mean damn, if money was the only issue then a homebuilt Caterham will destroy around a track.

    I respect you like Nissans but its the same reason that guy lashed out at you like that.

    This whole mentality of "I can just do this and that and be faster" is old.


    These cars are on another level.
