this question was post on the 997 board will like to get opinions from our side: all things being equal would you trade your 993 for the gtr

Spidey 993

no, it's not attractive in the slightest.

Ocean Blue C2S

No thanks, it's fast but ugly!!!

Magdaddy

what?

lots of things faster, not much prettier...IMHO!

That car is just another near anonymous looking supercar. 99 out of 100 people will have absolutely no idea what it is-brand or model. Can't really say that about a 993 can you?

I agree on all points above and will ad that at the end of the day it is still just a Nissan.

Quadcammer

maybe...that is one hell of a performance machine.

Then again, no manual transmission, so no.

Quadcammer

so what? I don't care if at the end of the day its a lada, it delivers when a lot of car makers don't.

Yeah, but you're not everyone

Most people don't wanna spend $100K on a butt-ugly Nissan, no matter how much of a performance beast it is.

On the 997 turbo post .. 2 owners have sold there's.

I heard it's not much of a track car. I've seen a na996 hang pretty well at the track. It would only fall behind on the straights.

However... I would take one as a daily driver!

Nope

The GTR Godzilla is a well know car - I'd say it has cult status - known for its performance. I'd say bang for buck when comparing to other supercars that are in the same speed category. Godzilla is a technical achievement no matter how you look at it.

It's not that good looking - true - but I still look at it when I see one pass. Which car guy doesn't know what a GTR is?

I'd like to drive one and check it out - I think it would be one fun car to drive. But would I trade the 993 for it - not at all.

Falcondrivr

No way. Ugly as sin, and by all accounts, not fun to drive at all. My 993 feels special every time I drive it. It's not about speed.

911ist

it's pretty unfair to compare 993 vs Nissan GTR. My grandma can probably drive the GTR and get better lap times than most 993 owners here. And no, she is not the stig in disguise.

But would I? Nope.

Looked it up after seeing this thread. Looks like a G35
