![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | My 2 fav Porsches of all time... ![]() And it's pretty hard for me despite CGT being my fav supercar along with McLaren F1 LM... I simply adore GT2 and would take it over any GT-R, Z06 and such... But vs. CGT? Hmm... ![]() If there's going to be sucessor of CGT, then i'll take GT2, if not, CGT in the end, just can't resist it. ![]() ![]()

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Both cars are widow makers,one must be really skilled to fully exploit the handling and potential of both cars and if u are not one u most probably gonna end in someone's backyard ![]() To me the GT2 looks too tame and boring next to the CGT,not to mention that the CGT is an absolute icon as Porsche's first ultra exotic car,so naturally it gets my vote ![]() |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | The Carrera GT is my favourite supercar ever. It's one of my favourite cars ever. I just love every bit of it. While the Turbo-gen of the 997 doesn't meet my likings. Much prefer a GT3, or even a Carrera S. So easy choice for me here. In fact, the choice is more or less always easy, when a CGT is involved, for me... ![]() But with my money I'd rather buy a Carrera S than any of these two: too expensive for me (even if I had plenty of money).
