but you shouldnt be so quick to choose the porsche. the Zonda F is a brilliant car. its nimble, sexy, and has lots of power also. i would say watch these and then vote

i wasnt in it when it was driven, but something even faster--ruf rt12. the design of the porsche is so precise though. the engine cover is at least within 2 cm of the wing. its crazy!

Porsche looks better. Sorry Zonda F. Looks like everyone rather have the Porsche.

9 out of 10 days i would say the porsche....but i voted ZondaF...its fast...and has more of a supercar look...

A car should look like its price tag.....the GT looks semi mundane

I can't believe I am in the minority in choosing the Zonda F. Pure sex, especially in bare carbon. It's what a super car should be, a giant "**** you, you poor bastards" to everyone who sees you driving it. From the videos, pictures and reviews, the attention to detail is phenomenal and the driving experience divine. Then there is the price, which is about double that of the CGT, and the resale is no doubt much stronger. The CGT is almost plain in comparison.

I'd pick the Carerra GT, why? because the looks are better more sleek and lovely than the Zonda, but the Zonda is a better performance car

gt sounds so much better. zonda's a better car tho, no doubt.

i'd go with zonda just because my attending has a gt and all i like about it is its sound. i think they really butchered the body line with the gt. looks quite odd if you look at it in person long enough.
