Actually, I would prefer the 09' Cayman S over all three.
Firstly, there is more involvement with the car at lower speeds. Test drive a fast Corvette on the back streets, if you can't get a hold of a 911 Turbo. You only 3/4 way through the 1st gear and you already have to hit the breaks. Might as well get an automatic. Same problem with litter bikes.
Try to slide one of those things on the street, too. Pretty tough with all that rubber at low speeds, isn't it.
You are also attracting just a bit too much attention. Don't know about you, but I don't like that for many reasons. Sometimes, it's just not practical when all you want to do is have fun.
GT-R is also a bit on the big side for the street.
And the biggest problem - AWD vs RWD. Of course, I'd rather stick to RWD on the street, even if I live somewhere where it rains or snows all the time. Hmmm, especially if I live there =).
Of course, there is a limit to this reasoning a car like Miata or S2000 makes you want more power.
