Anyone driven both GT3 Mk2 and GT2?

If so, how do they compare? I plan on tracking some but predominately street driving so will I appreciate the turbos more?

Also, is there going to be a GT2 Mk2 or nothing until next gen?

There is nothing like the "ooomph" of the turbos... its quite impressive.... that being said, I prefer the linear power delivery of the naturally aspirated motor.

i own both a 997turbo and 2010 gt3 and without doubt, the gt3 is far more involving and fun to drive. both have been autocrossed and no comparison. if you are a DRIVER, gt3 all the way.

The gt3 is a lot more "fun" and involving... GT2 is _very_ quick but it's not as responsive etc...

How would you compare the GT3 to a GT2? I'm probably not going to go w/ a reg turbo.
