Over the past few days I have seen some pretty intersting cars in the NYC area. My favorite of all three is the carrera GT, however, if I had the option to find a decently priced GTR that would suffice


Anyone have any experience with car #3? with 1270 produced between '04-'06 thats pretty rare

Yea that is the GTR really sleak looking car and very wide...I was surprised cause when I think Japanese sportscar I think Supra or something of that sort, and NSX. This is supercar sleak IMHO looks hot.

it is a "has been" supercar in my record... honestly that might have been the worst porsche that came out with ridiculous price tag...

if with that money in my pocket, I would just get every single color of m5 with every mod possible to do .. instead of buying CGT and putting in the garage and not able to drive everyday because scared to wrack or too expensive...

thats what i dont understand about ppl with fast car.. if they put it in the garage and let it sit there for a long time.. whats the point of getting them?
ok cgt goes 0- 60 3.5 .. i would rather spend 911 turbo which goes 0-60 in 3.7.. and have money to get lambo or some other cars...

that i suppose is why you arent workting towards having the means to appreciate it, it is and will always been a classic super car, and no dis to the M5 which I love, but they are uncomparable in any way shape or form. THe CGT will never be a 'has been' as you note in anyone's book, it held records on the Ring for years after its been closed from production and it is the best car that Porsche has developed to date

and when u can afford to own it, trust me, you dont worry about wrecking it or are scared to drive it...ofcourse you dont take a CGT to the mall or grocery store or to school to show off, you drive it, and drive it as meant to be, a street legal track ready race car , u can take the 911TT and Lambo and ...

Ahhh I love the car in the third pic... In fact I like it so much I'm going to go outside and kiss mine smack in the front bumper right now.
