I get hot and cold on Porsche. I guess I'm not sure that if I'm in to buy something in the GT-R price range that it's got the same pedigree or maybe the word is more like panache that a Porsche has. I think it's awesome that Nissan is able to produce such a car, and I know they've had them in Japan far longer than here. If we compare it to buying stocks, I would say that buying a GT-R is maybe small cap or something slightly riskier vs. buying a Porsche is more blue chip for the same money. In other words, if I spend X amount for one of those cars, which one is going to hold it's value? Maybe b/c I'm not in the market at that price range I feel like it would be too much to spend to be considered anything other than an investment. At the 370Z price range, that's not such a big deal.
