For that amount of $$$, you could get a new GTR, a used 911T, or you could have a new M3 with mods: an intercooled S/C, titanium exhaust, BBK, coils, tires for the same price (actually less).
The M3 will be fastest in a roll race. From a dead stop the M3 will be playing catch-up and perhaps it's all even by the end of the quarter mile. At the track who knows...the M3 has stepped it up with coils/brakes/tires but the stock GTR and 911T are formidable and which one is faster really depends on the particular track and driver competency. My guess is that for a novice, the GTR and 911T will be faster given the grip levels.
All three cars will be tons of fun.
Sure with unlimited $$$ you could make the 911T and GTR way faster. But that's not really what the OP was after.

Throwing modded vehicles into car buying equations is a mistake IMO.
You're presuming that the entry price is all you're going to fork out.
Modded vehicles by their very nature cost more because of warranty and depreciation issues. |
So what's your suggestion then, not buying the car he wants because it is modded or maybe creating a thread about his dilema so that people can give him advice about what to expect with supercharging an M3!!?
