Default GTR from 997GT3 Owner's Perspective

Interesting read for me at least. Since some say those who haven't even driven GT3 shouldn't talk about GT-R being fast. I believe this guy can give quite a fair comment.

Yep, I saw that thread, real nice review. Guy says he'd take it over a 997TT.

Good review. Everything I expected, except for how much larger it is than the Porsche. GT-R has junk in trunk

It's just weird the new Viper ACR has one thread with all kinds of articles, videos, reviews, but every publication that even mentions the GTR's name needs a new thread...very interesting. I guess it just is that awesome!

Why doesn't the guy sell his GT3 and buy a 997 TT and up the boost.

The interior is still shit, why can't they employ a 20 year old European Uni grad to design it for them.
