Pretty cool video. Conti Supersports is a great car, but really weights a lot. I am waiting for spring when I finally will be able to test drive Conti Supersports. I respect GTR, but I absolutely do not like it, have tested it and absolutely no love.

Please show me at least real one for sale at that price, a real one, not your imaginery. Exactly Supersports, not other version. Until than let me not to trust you.

I don't know where you've been looking but most of the Continental SuperSports I've seen are in the $250-280K range. For that kind of money, I'd get a slightly used 599 GTB. If we're talking $90K for the GTR, I'd much rather have a 997 GT3 as a daily driver with some pocket change left over.

I'll admit that the GTR is a technical masterpiece and brilliantly quick, but it's just too heavy for my liking.

No worries, now everyhing is clear and I agree, used Speed could be purchased for this price in both US and Europe easily.

This is getting silly... an Swatch watch keeps more precise time than a Rolex, yet there will always be Rolex buyers and there will always be Swatch buyers, leave it at that.

Dumb intro with the stereotype of a GT-R driver

I got to drive the shit out of a Supersports... Fantastic car... found it to be MUCH faster than my stock CGT ( 12.2@115 vs 13.0@107)... That being said its definitely not a sportscar, and next week my CGT will be modded to see how close to Supersports performance you can get for a fraction of the cost.
