YouTube - Fifth Gear 2012 Nissan GT-R Vs 2011 Porsche 911 Turbo S

 

I have a ton of respect for what the GTR can do for the money.

 

A Nissan either way...and ugly to boot.

 

So what if it's a Nissan?

The GTR's level of performance is unmatched in its price range, and just barely in double its price range. You say its "a Nissan either way" to degrade it, and yet it out performs manufacturers that you feel are superior. What does that say about those "superior" manufacturers?

Also, those centerlocks look amazing

 

Give me a Porsche anyday.

 

So is a Corvette ZR1 but I wouldn't take either over a Turbo S. The value is in the Porsche Turbo S. Not the price of a GTR or ZR1. I have always bought based on value not price. Luckily I can and for that I am grateful.

 

^ what? i love porsches as well but how is the turbo s a better "value" than a GTR?

maybe you should ask zuckerberg to define value for you

also, first the GTR is pitched against the turbo, now its the turbo s. they keep going up the model range, whats next

 

Sounds more like you buy based on price, not value.

What does the Turbo S have to offer that the GTR doesn't besides a Porsche badge? Not to take away from the Turbo S, but the GTR performs just as well, if not better, and it costs about 60% as much.

How is the Turbo S a better value than the GTR?




+1. And yea, I can't wait to see what they match it up with next. Seems almost endless.

 

And maybe I'm the only one, but if I had $160k to spend, and had to pick between a base Turbo S and a GTR + tune and other mods, I would pick the GTR 99 times out of 100.

 

How would the GT-R compare with a 458 or an lp570? Same thing going on with the turbo s
