I'm a believer now :)
My quest for a "daily driver" sports car led me to two choices - a 997.1TT and GTR. While I was fairly certain the 997.1TT was the right car for me (I've had numerous 911s and loved them all), I thought I would see if Godzilla lived up to all of the hype. One test drive and I was convinced. Without a doubt the best all-around car I've driven in the handling and brute speed department with no apparent faults or quirks (except for the Robotech looks 
)
I would've taken a 997.2TT PDK over this in a heartbeat, but I just couldn't justify the huge delta in $.
Any other PNWs own a GTR?

Nice choice, they are wonderful cars! I believe the fastest car in it's price range.
Down side they are frail, and have trans issues, don't launch it. They also require a lot of maintaince. But compared to your other ride, I'm sure it's a drop in the bucket.

Tuesday nights - weekly S2000 meet @ Azteca on 148th in Bellevue. You (and anyone else interested) should come!
Happy Hour beer pricing and very cheap all you can eat tacos for $4 bucks or so.
It's more of a good excuse to hang - we probably talk about the S2000 perhaps 3% of the time. Come to think of it most of us show up in cars other than S2000s.
It's more about different cars, guns (been doing some steel plate shooting lately), karts, girls and whatever else comes up.
In addition to the beautiful white GT-R Simon had a few other white beauties in the past including an S2000.
Tuesday nights - 6:30PM onwards.
