if you want a truly iconic car, get one of these and leave it standard!

I haven't seen anyone claim it as "god's gift", but you can't deny the ability of it.

I second what jon said. You can't go wrong with any of those Porsches.

After careful consideration of all matters, I will do a GTR IF (big "if" here) I sell the car. Cost being the secondary factor, the first is a useable back seat so that the whole family (me wife and only child) can use the car on the weekends together.

I will have to be satisfied with 700 whpr because the next step is 900 whpr for double the price of the mods to get to 700.

That said, the "worst" thing that happens is that I keep my car and learn to be content with a 770 + whpr two seater .......

Yes you can if you compared to GTR, but that's only my opinion.

Rwd GT3 based 996 Gemballa twin turbo at the track, former track toy

With how rare they are and the prices they are commanding they are just not the right car to buy and modify.

I am surprised less people mentioned Porsche. That's what one of our members got after selling his 800RWHP C6, and that's what I want to get after I sell my Supercharged C6 (either that or a C7, still on the fence).
You can get a low mileage 911 Turbo for about the same price as the GTR and get close to 600RWHP with minor bolt-ons. Its not as "fast" as a supercharged corvette, but it is a hell of a lot quicker, can be driven year round, doesn't need R-Compound tires, and won't granade its transmission like a modded GTR will...
Plus, if you know how to drive, you can buy it with a stick



Thoughts?
