I'd say GT-R (like that surprised anybody).

After pricing out maintenance for myself in the Vantage, as opposed to the GT-R (which also doubles as my track/auto-x/drag car), it was a very easy decision for me.

It is very convenient to use - as far as electronics.

I think after driving the GT-R it's back at the top of the list for use as a DD (25 miles daily) In the past 3 weeks I've considered Porsche 911 tt and 997 911s Aston M6 and CLS55. The GTR does everything you could ask. I've seen some 09's in the low 60's range. I'm looking for a nice Black one.

Get a vantage with a manual trans, put an exhaust on and youre done.

It is way slower, but a better looking/sounding car is not to be found.

The gtr gets boring after a short while...ask me how I know

No. While it is everything it is said to be, I found that once I owned it and drove it everyday, overall it was a boring car.

Put it this way, I sold it for a 10k loss in 4 months. I liked it that much.

Yeah, I wouldn't sell mine for anything... Too much fun on tracks, very competent for the daily drive in inclement weather...

Still the only downsides are stalkers and the millions of GT-R "experts" one can run into.
