Tell him screw the R8, go GT3!

But then he would need to learn how to drive a proper manual car with the GT3.

Just from what Giccin has described him as it seems he has more money than skills. But that could be wrong.

Yes. He says things like.. "put it in sport mode and go straight! the double clutch kicks in faster!" I think I might have caught that part on camera. lol

Perfect, then he should definitely go with the GT3!! It may teach him how to actually drive...several transmissions later!

Keep your GT3, I'll still take the GTR. lol

Given those two choices, I'd go with the R8 because it oozes sexiness. If I had supercar moneys though, I'd go for a Maserati GranTurismo MC or a Mercedes SLS AMG.

Giccin, I hope that guy in your extended family will not become one of those rich kid who drives exotic cars for nothing.
