I currently own a 2014 Shelby Cobra GT500 with a upgraded Kenne Bell Blower and a pulley.
It's about a 9.5 second car. Should I sell it to pick up a GTR ? I need some more opinions from you guys!

Personally I'm a fan of both cars for the look, speed, and especially sound. I think if it were me i would look into the Nissan GTR just because thats one of my dream cars. It's totally up to you though and really depends what your looking for in a car. Hope this helped.

A GTR is a little more pricey than a GT500 so I don't know where your going to get all that money. Also can we see your GT500?

I can post up some pictures in the morning, and with the upgrades for the GT500 that I have, I only need an extra 5 grand or so and that's totally doable. I'm not worried about the money right now.

A Base GT500 goes for 58-60k and a new blower definitely doesnt add 30k..

I bought my 2014 Cobra GT500 for just under 70k. Also, I'm not looking to buy a 2015 Alpha Omega setup on the GTR. I was thinking maybe a 2012 Alpha 9, maybe 12. Nothing too crazy here..

The alpha 9 setup alone costs 25k, plus you need the car. You must have a lot of money to be doing deals like this

I already said my friend, I'm not necessarily worried about the money aspect of this investment. I'm just wondering what people think is the better car, and if they think the popularity of the GTR is worth sacrificing the speed, power, and rubber burning fun the GT500 brings to offer.
