Turbo looks nicer, but its the purity of the GT3

I voted Turbo as if I were to get one it would be as an everyday supercar.

GT3 clearly. There's very little power difference, the GT3 is lighter, revvier engine, dry sump track setup.

The turbo is a fantastic road car, from the pax side, didn't appear to suffer from turbo lag. And very capable around the 'ring. And would suit most people on this board I reckon.

And I would drive it to Italy and back over the Alps

GT3, looks so much better and will be so much more fun to drive

I think it is about 15,000 cheaper too so that pays for the beater

Turbo for me. Purely because it would be a daily driver.

I'd keep the Elise or get something similar to it for track use.

If we're talking about second cars I'd have to reconsider......







.....and still go for the GT3.
