Porsche > all. Even if it was a "lowly" 911 Carerra 2, no S, no AWD, no turbos or screamer GT3 engine. Even circa 1989 or earlier ;)
It's an experience. And, from all the reviews I've read/seen/heard about, the GT-R is one thing that the 911 will never be: soulless. It's an automaton around the track, it is completely benign... devoid of passion.
A Porsche requires care, control and skill. It rewards the driver, even Porsche initiates like myself. For the half hour I drove my buddy's 911... I felt like a different person entirely, and not in a bad way.
I think Godzilla died with the R34. Take heart fellas, we can have 1995 R34s in 2010.
