[QUOTE="Golfer, post: 798456, member: 15668"] The GTR is fierce, from looks to performance. I'd never drag a GTR unless I am pushing 450 horses or above and I know that the GTR is pretty standard. Chasis wise, I think the GTR is stronger. The entire GTR package is neat! I think city driving won't be fun but on highways, I think it is King! I think Porsches and Ferraris think twice before they nudge a GTR. Everything is double for a GTR bcos of its twin turbo setup. I personally think you need to be quite a skillful driver to push a GTR (not making any implications here). I give kudos to those who knows how to handle a GTR. When it comes to performance cars, I think there is no such thing as practical. Why would anyone buy a 4 door sedan Evo for the price of a 4 door sedan BM 318 (over here)? So, if you are thinking abt performance, forget the word practical. There are plenty more "practical" cars out there. The GTR is a good drift car, if you are into drifting. Personally I can't drift, dunno how to, so the Evo is fine. The GTR is also a good "show" car. I fmoney is not a problem, you can build a show cars. There are a lot of show cars which have never had their engines cranked before, believe it or not. Some don't even know if they can be started!!!
