Default Cubby has the best car eva!

The latest R&T arrived at my house yesterday. The comparo of the Z06 Vette, Porsche 911 Turbo and GTR are the cover story. While the three cars produce nearly identical acceleration times, the GTR spanks the other two on the track. Plus it has a lower sticker price than even the Vette and back seats that people can actually sit in. Very impressive.

Nope. I don't really like the styling of the GTR. And I would be inclined to wait a year or two to see how those things hold up. They may be bullet proof, but the old saying "fast, good, cheap; pick two" comes to mind.

R&T is one of 2 car mags I still get, I loved the article.
Anytime Porsche can be slapped down into their place, it's a great day for me.
And what, the GT-R was something like 1/3 the cost of the silly P-car...
