I have voted for the Carrera RS that's becoz it can be a daily driver and my living area (given the fact that if I bought the car I will be literally living in it LOL). But half my heart is pounding for the CGT.

I chose the CGT, just because, it's the the best, and I might win a drag against an Enzo, and maybe win the Enzo from the owner, and then I'd have an Enzo

I don't know all of the models mentioned and i'm too tired to google around, any1 cares to post pics so other ignorants like me may have a better idea of whats the stakes here... please I think the GT1 would leave the CGT at the start line if the stakes are performance. If it's design then the old roadster model that was murphys ride in another 24hrs hands down. Then if it's for everyday use, well still the roadster... all class bling free baby yeah. Unless it's for winter driving, then it would be a 4wd model, cheap too so i wouldn't feel so bad in all the salt... so a carrera 4s then is it? How about a 1938 chevrolet 1/2 ton 4x4, ya can have the class and the 4wd + a hydractive suspension and still drive it everyday... Even more, you'll have a one of a kind!! You can even swap in a duramax diesel engine, mod it to 450bhp with like over 1000 ft/lb of torque. Feed it biodiesel and pollute 80% less than your CGT. At the red light it owns most porsches! isn't that worth so much more for a lot lot less?!

thanks gucom for posting the picture, i didn't really have the time. it seems that a lot of people are going for the newer porsche like the CGT, but in my opinion, i think the CGT is a GREAT GREAT car, but it's not a lemans winning racer yet so compare against the 917, 956, 962, 935, and the GT1, the CGT seems to be a lil slow.

My personal favourite is the GT1, it looks good (i dont' like the evolution version in the pics that gucom post though the first version look much better), very very exclusive and rare, very very fast and most importantly, it was the last porsche that won lemans (1998).

yeah but how many of those cars have you sene with a license plate on em?? ofcourse race cars are faster than street cars, also porsche said the Carrera GT wont participate in Le Mans (at least not in any kind of official Porsche team), so dont count on that.
I really have a hard time choosing, but i chose the CGT for its sound, and the 7:28 NS time (should be fast enough to beat some of those race cars, Niki Lauda was the first (and as far as i know only) man to do the NS in under 7 minutes, in a F1 car in '76, so a Le Mans car should be lucky to do a 7:28 lap, i think the 917 which is from '71 cant do that).

But all of these porsches have a special thing for me, so its very close

The Carrera GT is definatelly the most technologically advanced car Porsche ever made and so beautiful at the same time. A real work of art.

that's my point, the GT1 is rarer and more exclusive.
