Only when I heard the engine fire up did the sound of the exhaust cause me to ask questions.

Now having learned a bit more about the GTR, I only view it slightly differently. I guess had I been younger and bought into the hype/cultural aspect created by being a fan of the Fast & Furious films, I would perhaps have been drooling over it as I would be over a 72 911RS, I guess it is just a generational thing...?

I would not swap my old 991 for a GTR despite the GTR`s much higher market value kinda says it all...?

Another case of the movie making the car....
