How can you not like this rear end:

Because it's ugly?

Fixed.

I knew somebody would say the 993 looks much better, but the price does reflect that, and for less you can get better performance and a more comfortable car with the 996. The rear looks elegant, at least to me.

EDIT: Oh, and IMO it's not totally fixed until you get to this one:

The GT-R is quite a big car:

That makes it even more impressive what it can do with it's size/weight.

The GT-R is quite a big car:

People keep saying that, but every time I stand next to one... The first thing that comes to mind.. "Why do people think this is so big?" I'm always underwhelmed... A 70's Caddy is a big car, GT-R is just kind of... medium.

Who in their right mind thinks the underfed 996 looks good in any light?

Unless you live somewhere where 70's Caddy's are very common, a GT-R is still very large for what is essentially a 2+2 sports car. Put a 996 or 997 next to a GT-R and it's like Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries.

Stock vs. minty. Super lame vs. super not lame.

Totally not lame.

Less lame than before.

Eh.. Porsches are small cars.. At least I think so. GT-R is well... It isn't small, but doesn't deserve the nickname Godzilla... Because it isn't that big. I think this is just he American in me showing though.. I'm used to seeing pickups the size of apartments.

That's the crux of the matter. Whenever i see a GT-R over here (in Europe), GT-Rs always just stand out as being huge. I don't think that it's particularly because they are huge, they're not that much different in size to Audi A5 or Merc E-Class coupe's. Maybe it's just that they don't hide their size well.

It's not the most subtley styled car in the world. Fact is, it's enormous for what it is, just like most cars these days.

But then again, I drive an early-90s RX7 which is half the size of a new Mustang.

Compared to my Forester it's huge. 8.5 inches longer and 6.6 inches wider! It's 300+kgs heavier too.

Bigger than a Forester? I can't say I've ever seen the two together, but Jesus.

Foresters really are not that big though, for an SUV.

Edit: Ewww on the green Z. And I'd like to know who thought it was a good idea to "stance" a freakin' Ferrari.

I'd like to think it's easy to spot it's photoshopped..

Yeah you're right.

Gnardiculous.

Yeah it is PS'd, but it's still gnarmazing.

Here is a nice example of a well built 996 GT3. Exactly how they should all be done...

I've seen R34's done like that a thousand times... But its just so perfect.

Well if it's the real midnight purple II it is a limited version limited to 500 cars I think

 

[CodeRedR51]

I love those moving pictures....

And R34 wins the page so far for me.
