2025 Porsche 911 Carrera (992.2) Vs. 2025 Nissan GT-R (R35)

Can a $1000 price premium justify Godzilla's older tech? Find out how the entry-level 992.2 Carrera compares to the base R35 in this final showdown

2025 will mark the end of the R35 Nissan GT-R, so how does it stack up against the latest Porsche 911?

At $120,100, the base 992.2 Carrera is your entry into the Porsche 911 lineup for 2025

With a starting MSRP of $121,090, the Nissan GT-R seems to be representing a much better value for money, on paper

Porsche offers a revised variant of its latest 911 generation, dating back to 2019

Despite constant revisions, the Nissan GT-R remains fundamentally the same since 2008

Despite a 3.0-liter twin-turbo flat-six, the Porsche 992.2 Carrera is heavily outgunned by Godzilla

But thanks to high grip levels and a PDK transmission, the 992.2 Carrera still manages a 3.9-second to 60 mph

Meanwhile, the GT-R sprints to 60 mph in 2.8 seconds, and the more expensive NISMO can do 2.5 if conditions allow it

The GT-R's DCT transmission only has 6 gears and is slightly slower and less-refined than the 8-speed PDK

On the other hand, the VR38 DETT is a legendary powerhouse, capable of insane numbers

Inside, the Porsche 992.2 Carrera features a high-quality interior with a fully digital, but retro-inspired instrument cluster

The 4-way adjustable Sport seats are good enough, but for anything else, Porsche will charge you extra

Despite the last major revision in 2017, the Nissan GT-R interior still feels outdated compared to the 911

However, the Nissan is much more generous in terms of standard equipment. There isn't a whole lot you can add
