*disclaimer* i like the gtr but to me its styling is a 1 out of 5. Id rock it any day of the week still.
Rice mobile? You = FAIL. Btw if you're a family man you shouldn't even be considering any 2+2 seater at all, and thus should not be looking at any of these three cars.

GT-R all the way baby.

If liking a car for its superior performance and looks for a more than reasonable price is called nut-hugging, then well sir, call me a nut-hugger.

115 traps now equals "superior" performance?

Hold up, why do they have to be a fanboy because they say they said they would take the GTR? What ever happened to personal preference? I mean, you chose the Z because you liked it right? Does that make you a fanboy?

Personally, I love all 3 cars. My order would be 911(legend), GTR(new kid on the block), BMW(style).

Thumbs up

Guys, guys, GT-Rs are not perfect cars--neither are our Zeds, for that mat-
ter---,they're just much, much CUTER than either the Bimmer or the Porsche.
So, relax; our monZters are right up there with the competition. BTW, THE main reasons for my getting a "Z", was: 1. Looks; 2. MPG; 3. Ergonomics; 4.
Thrills; 5. R-e-l-i-a-b-i-l-i-t-y!!! Enjoy your beasts. Some of those reviews/
evaluations are NOT objective; inevitably, the article writer's emotions create
bias.

Because of his generic response. At least list the reasons why you would take a GTR over the other 2.

This is the second article I've seen where the GTR posted these kind of numbers. 12.1 sec @ 115 mph is pretty good for 480 hp and 3900#'s. Using 3500 miles on the odometer as an excuse is just lame. That doesn't sound good in terms of reliability. I've never heard of a car losing 10 mph from it's trapspeed after just 3500 miles.

C&D is like the Mad Magazine.. I laugh everytime I read it. M3 is nowhere near the gtr - m5 and 6 would be a much better comparo. I almost feel bad for porche, as they're always falling behind in performance.
