Post The Truth by Driver Republic : GT2 v GT-R

I have to say hands down this is the best automotive magazine ever on the web.

"When we left the 'ring on the close of the second day, the GT2 was the daddy."

Nice article, Porsche is the daddy! Drivers Republic looks like a great mag. I have never heard of it, but added it to my favorites. Winding Road is another good online car magazine.

Good article.

The GT-R is the real deal.

Is it a Porsche (and would I give up my Turbo S for it)? No.

But, driving a GT-R is like driving in a video game. It goes fast immediately and handles like a dream.

I believe all that you're saying, Orlando. It's just so hard for me to imagine that big thing not "wallerin" when you wiggle the wheel.

blakt out

besides driving the car, if you really want to know what it is like driving the car, watch the Top Gear where Jeremy Clarkson gets whiplash from taking the corners in the GT-R.

also you can check out how the stig ripped through the course in the GT-R; it did not look and does not feel like a big pig.

I tell you, the GT-R handles much better than my Turbo S, which has an upgraded suspension.
