Should Porsche 911 Turbo owners be concerned about the Nissan GT-R?

When Dr Porsche Ferdinand said “I couldn’t find the car I wanted so I decided to build mine own” and the rest is history. Porsche has been building luxury sports cars for decades and have never been concerned until GT-R created a big buzz around the world when it said it could beat the Porsche 911 turbo and many other sports cars at anywhere, anytime and anyplace!

Porsche buyers are loyal customers they start with a basic 911 carrera then move up to the carrera s, and the next step is carrera 4 s fallowed by the ultimate porsche 991 turbo which makes them think that they can beat 99% of the cars driven on the road everyday. Base of a 911 turbo will get you started over $120,000 without getting into the options lists, on the other hand a premium package GT-R is going to cost you just little over $70,000 so is it a bargain?

We all have seen the pictures of porsche turbo driving along with Nissan GT-R around the race track all over the world during its development. Nissan GT-R used porsche turbo as a benchmark on it is development so it has the courage to keep up with the 911 turbo as well as latest auto reviews suggests that it can actually beat 911 turbo even gt3 almost without breaking a sweat.

Porsche brand has a huge reputation over Nissan but GT-R is a phenomenon because of its extremely hi-tech advanced Drive system which is included in the R32, R33, and R34. This gained a worldwide reputation not just in Japan but also for the rest of the world. Nissan skyline has never been sold in the US officially however some skyline models made it is way to the US after all.

Overall Porsche is a super sport car that can be driven by anyone, reliability always distinguishes porsche from other sports car manufactures so Nissan GT-R has to prove it self before stepping into 911 turbo territory. Price is a huge factor when it comes to buying a sport car, however porsche owners have been paying the ultimate price for their precious brand so maybe they will consider switching after all, but I do not think that hard core porsche consumers will be likely to buy a Nissan GT-R anytime soon because they will remember the quote “Porsche, there is no substitute”
