Based on current generation gt3, reliability seems to be questionable. And you have to wait a bit for msrp as well when it first launches. So unfortunately, a bmw is comparable.

Z06 or Nissan GT-R? Looks are subjective (not my cup of tea). Both are faster than GT3 (for the first couple laps)

Given his criteria that's not a bad choice.
Or a Lotus Evora might be a contender.

I really do like what has been revealed to date on the AMG GT-R.
Why does nobody mention the Nissan GT-R as an option? How about the Ford GT350?

Closest comparable would of course be another 911. A Turbo would match or exceed GT3 performance but lack the excitement. A 991 GTS would be more true to Gt3 since RS naturally aspirated but it wouldn't be as fast not would it have the 4-wheel steering or excitement of 9krpm redline or PDK-S transmission (which is very different from regular PDK in feel), but at least you could get a proper manual transmission on a GTS.
All other makes (BMW, Chevy, Dodge, etc) are just so extremely different in looks and driving feel dept that it's not really a comparison.
If it were me, personally, I'd get a 991 GTS with 7-speed manual well spec'd. You can even get the fixed wing similar to GT3 and other go-fast options to make it as GT3-like as possible. That car would be a keeper.
