Porsche's New 911 Carrera S Goes "Head 2 Head" with Nissan's 2013 GT-R

Throw us the keys to any one of these two sports cars, and we will gladly take them for a very, very long spin without a second thought. And all for good reason.

While the GT-R has entered its fifth year in production, it doesn’t realty show its age in any other departments than the styling and the interior, which to be honest, wasn't anything special to begin with.

In many ways, the GT-R was years ahead of the competition when it debuted in 2007, and let's not forget, Nissan has been religiously tweaking and upgrading it every year.

And unlike those real professional ladies enjoying a ride in superfast sports car as any other…normal woman would do, the unnamed blonde on the black leather seat of the GT-R has a mind and a mouth of her own.

Some of our favorite quotes include, "This GT-R has nothing on those twin-turbo Gallardo" and "No girl, he does his car like he does his woman, quarter mile a time, 10 seconds the most".

Fast & Furious Nissan GT-R Driver Hits a Bump and Goes Flying Into a Field!

There is no doubt that, at some point, we have all done something stupid behind the wheel, but you would think that driving one of the fastest cars in the world like the Nissan GT-R on a side road would make you a tad more careful.

Try telling that to the...pilot of the gunmetal GT-R in the insane video that follows after the break.

In what appears to be some sort of sports car cruise, possibly in Maryland judging by the "Ballenger Creek Pike" and "Elmer Derr Road" signs, the GT-R driver passes the car filming the incident and which was already going fast, from the left hand side of the road, as if there was no tomorrow.
