It would be stupid to me if I went on a GTR forum and every week there is a post on how much better a GTR was than 911.

I didnt think that was confusing......

You've been here for two months. I've been here for 7 years.

Do you have any clue what you are talking about? Now I wish I could take back the positive rep I gave you earlier.

I'll talk slow. If I owned X Brand and went on a Y Brand forum, having previously owned a Y Brand, to say hi to my old forum friend and every time I go there there is a post saying how my new brand of car is inferior to Y I would get annoyed.

Or in your case, there is NO need for a PORSCHE owner to post every reference to how a loser RAG compares the Porsche to X brand. Then whether the P car wins or not there is always some justification as to why its not the #1.
Make a review forum for that.

So, let me clear this up for you since it's apparent that you are a bit confused.

6speedonline is not a Porsche forum. It's a performance car forum that includes Porsches, Lambos, GT-Rs, Ford GTs, Corvettes, Astons, Bentleys, to name a few. It also has sections for watches, guns, politics, investment advice, etc.

There are many people who come on this forum to discuss multiple types of cars, and there are no rules about which sections they have to stay in. So, when a Porsche owner posts a comparison test that includes a GT-R in a Porsche section (which is what happened here), GT-R owners are completely allowed to post in those threads to either counter or support comments that have been made.

Conversely, if a GT-R owner posts something about a Porsche in the GT-R section, Porsche owners are also fully allowed to post in those threads to either counter or support comments have been made by GT-R owners. This back and forth happens routinely on both sides, and will probably never stop. Most of the time we argue a bit, maybe get somewhat frustrated with one another, but end up moving on and don't hold any grudges. That's how most car forums work, and it is certainly how this particular forum works.

As far as me, I'm a Moderator on 6speedonline, so I'm here pretty much every day. I post in many sections, and don't intend to deviate from that. I was here every day when I owned Porsches, when I had my Z06, and the entire time that I have owned GT-Rs. If I get a Lambo, guess what? Yep, I'll still be here then as well.

In summary, if you don't like how things work, feel free to find another forum to spend your time on. In reference to the earlier dig that you threw at me, was that "slow" enough for you?

The GTR is quite the car. However, the Porsche quality, beauty mystique , the list goes on, and of course especially the Porsche history. I loved driving the GTR very impressive and a good price. I wanted a 911 turbo but if I couldn't have afforded the turbo, I definitely would have bought a GTR. It is some car for sure.

The grand national did that one well. Ask my wife what a GT-R is... My guess is she will say a vacuum cleaner. And she would still rather have a Dyson.

Just went through this myself albeit on a used basis. Had $75K budgeted after selling my E92M3. Considered the following slightly used cars: GT-R, 997 Turbo and CLKAMG63 Black. While I totally respect the GT-R and it's mind blowing performance and think from certain angles it is a cool design, I went with a an '07 997 Turbo for the following -- manual transmission, better build quality all around (paint, interior bits,etc.), near bulletproof Mezger engine, more comfortable ride and most important to me...I find it to be a sexier car. YMMV.
