The GTR is forever enticing but long-term review after review suggests that it's not driver-engaging. That would be a big upset for me. I like to feel in touch with the car and have the charisma of a manual transmission. Just going fast on a track isn't good enough unless I was actually wheel-wheel racing. Hell, if I was to get a 911 turbo, I'd still get a manual transmission. I'd rather go moderately fast and have a ton of fun doing it, then go really fast but just turn the wheel and push two pedals. Even driving the flappy paddles isn't as fun as rowing a 6MT.
Statements like this help restore my faith in humanity. It's refreshing to know that at least not everyone is dumb as a box of rocks. You like my self understand that being the “fastest” doesn’t by default equate to being the “most rewarding to drive, etc, etc.”
