Chriz · 03-11-2010, 03:00 AM

0-62 in 5.7

seems very slow.

Porsche is too much of a bitch to compete against the GT-R...so they have to bully the Z...I love Porsche, but seriously..a Carrera S with PDK against an auto Z???

the porche is a ugly *** car anyway

i think the carrera is nice looking but because the styling changes are so minor, a 2010 carrera would look nearly identical to a carrera from 5 or 6 years ago.

if money was not a concern, i would take the carrera too. why not? it's a higher end car.

Well, I would hope Sven would follow up with a comparison of the Porsche to a Ferrari 458 or a Lamborghini Gallardo. I could understand if the price were within 20% of each other but to choose the Base Z and compare it to something that costs almost triple is just ridiculous.

To answer your question, if money were not a concern at that price point, I'd choose the GT-R (and so did most other trusted publications).

unfortunately, problem i have with the GT-R is if i picked that car, i would have to give up manual shifting and to me, that is asking a lot

i know for the amount we are talking about, i would rather have a base nissan 370z and a shelby gt500 than just one porsche carrera

Too funny, the only cars I've considered buying in the last 5 years have been the Shelby GT500 and now the 370Z!!!

Hey my name is Sven this Porsche makes my heart race!

*Proceeds to drive to a top speed of 30mph*

Boy that sure was fun! Maybe in a few more years I'll learn manual and actually take a car to it's top gear!

Lol, this is funny. I knew the outcome before I watched this, they are in Germany....lol. For the most part they will and have been for years biased to there own cars or other Euro cars even if something else is as good or nearly as good...lol
