Just to prove a point
I love the ZR1 and all, that's the only American muscle I'd buy honestly...
But Porsches have always won me over
Gotta love me a Porsche

Again with the Porsche and Corvette Kenny?I have to say I'm in love with the GT3 RS.I was watching Top Gear Season 10 and there was an episode where Hammond was in the GT3 RS,Clarkson in the Gallardo LP-540 (I THINK),and May in a race tuned Aston Martin I think DB9.They were looking for the best driving roads in Europe.I loved the Lambo and Porsche,not the Aston Martin though,it was stripped to be a full race car and May was dying of heat in that oven.Anyways I love the GT3 RS.

Maybe after season 11 and Prison Break season 2.Vietnam can wait,I've never been there anyways.I want the GT3 RS from season 10 cause Clarkson called it a beetle cause of it's color.

Yeah,I don't really like cars without roofs.I already hate convertibles.I'll just stick with the GT3,maybe a F430 Scuderia,or Lamborghini Gallardo LP-560-4.

You guys are a bunch of ****'s!
At 1/4 of the price, the ZR1 is superior in almost every way. How can you not like a car that has better curves than a victorias secret model?

But I am sure the $130k AWD turbo would get absolutely annihilated by the FR ZR1!

We all have cars worth about 5 grand, and here we are talking about cars that are close to a quarter of a million dollars... I dont wanna thread jack n kill this, but this reminded me of something earlier this evening.
I walk up in the taco joint to grab a burrito right... I'm waiting, check in on 4sq real fast, then I look up to scan the room- make sure I didnt walk in during a robbery or whatever, and I see these three younger hispanic kids, very cleanly dressed in some business attire, talking about cars. They dropping car names left and right about lexus IS300 with XXXswap or LS swap that and blah blah Mercedes, viper, blah... This kid catches me looking at him with this dumb look on my face and I look away... That dumb look was me picturing that being myself doing exactly what hes doing- talking about cars that I've never driven and probably never would. I mean ****, we're up in a taco joint, like the real hispanic brick and mortar taco truck type spot... and I just realized ****, I'm still broke...

Hahaha, hey remember, those mexican guys might be part of a cartel! u never know :P
But anyways, GT3 costs nowhere near $450k
I think you've mistaken it with the CGT which scrapes the ZR1
According to Top gear power lap times:

Re: Just to prove a point
I'll take the old school Nissan Skyline GT-R (R34). I've loved that car since I was a kid! It wouldn't be so much for speed, as much as personal satisfaction

Lol, or get a AE86 
I never really liked GT-R's or Evo's
Overated playstation cars
I'd be happy with a Cayman S (with remus exhaust, or muffler delete, and LSD)
I will be set for life

I'd take a GT-R.Only if it could get 830WHP like the one I got in GT5,then I'd get it.I'm happy with an M3 since Top Gear declares it's no longer a car for a ****,and that the only people still driving M3's are the ones appreciate the car's performance.I believe the ***** moved onto DB9's and DBS's according to Richard Hammond..

Yeah, and if you get a benz, you're an *** (ahhhssss, with brit accent)
and if you get the M3, it's more fuel efficient than the toyota prius, according to Jeremy

M3 is the most practical sports car for me cause it's impossible to afford a Porsche or a Ferrari ever in my life.

A Cayman is just about 60k brand new too
Everyone thinks that Porsches are super car prices, yet they are about the same price as any luxury vehicle.
They vowed to never change the design. only slightly

Ok, that seemed unfair to the Porsche on re-reading the post. Don't get me wrong, I fell in love with Porsches long, long ago. It's just that they don't have many if any amenities, and those are for USA models.
