Porsche GT3. I like rawness in a sports car
Plus the engine/exhaust sounds nice to me.

Definately the GT3... I think the GTR would get boring eventually... as the GT3 is much more of a challenge to drive.

I dont know man, 996 GT3 can be had for 60k now. GTR can't even be had for MSRP.
GT3 would be both a bargain and the better car for the money

GT3 because of GTR Tranny issues.

My dream car is a 997 GT3.
Given that we are talking about a 996 GT3 vs an R35 GTR, I'd still take the 996 GT3.
Though the GTR is fast, no doubt, the GT3 is the sport car the GTR wished it was
The rawness of the GT3's are hard to match (not referring to speed, rather "feel" of the car).

Definitely a GT3. Interesting so far not many are choosing the GT-R.

I would get the GT-R over a 996 GT3. I would get the 997 GT3 over the GT-R.
That is one nice pic!

After mulling it over for a millisecond or so - GT3. No doubt.

suprise most here like the GT3.. for street I like the GTR it is so much faster and easier to drive and since i'm not a good driver i'll be faster on the track in a GTR as well cause it is sooo easy to drive fast... but GT3 does drive/feel more like a track/race car and require a lot more skill to drive fast. like them both but If i have to let one go it will be the GT3.

I would do the GTR in a heart beat. Its faster and more comfortable
