Then watch a moded evo whoop that a$$ on the track haha. Got em. Id stick to the evos if i were you. 70k on a GTR is redonkulous if your just trying to have a stock fast car cause you cant mod or track that thing without loosing your warrenty.

I rather keep one Evo and get a used C6 Z06 instead of two Evos.

If you can afford the Insurance for someone your age and the maintenance cost... I would do it!

But then again it would just be my weekend car.

I'd get the car you really want, personally I'd wait a few years when they are going for around 35-37k. I don't get why so many people on here want a Z06..they are a great performance car, but driving the 9-10ths of it's potential is something that scares a lot of drivers..professional and otherwise. You drive one of those cars too hot into an apex and you'll be counting how many 360s you can do before you hit the bank!

I am in the same dilemma been looking at 09 GTRs lately and would have to sell the evo to get into one. Its tempting but totally different animal. As for the Z06 bug, I dont get it. I have owned a C6 and I sold it to buy another evo. Maybe its just me, but I dont have that strong love for vettes like many people do on this forum...

Cool thing is Shep does transmissions for the GTR now. So no worries if you break it!

Depends if I was single or married. Single I would go GTR all the way, married I would just stick with the evo but maybe sell one for a different play toy like a bike or something.

I'm not into the new GTR, which I know is heresy in most circles. It's extremely heavy and optimized for situations we will never really see in the USA, aka super high speed. They really downgraded the technology behind the AWD system in the new GTR, the R33 and R34 had a version of ATTESSA-Pro that was very similar to the current Evo X system (hydraulically actuated multi clutch, computer controlled).

It's a definitively fast car, sure, but I would much rather have an older R34. Evo's have the appeal of being a sports car and a practical sedan, the GTR is a sports/luxury GT with little utility.
