Toyota, on the other hand, makes a super strong motor in the 2jz, through a lot of development on the 7MGTE and 1JZGTE projects. But it would take a LOT of money to get it close to the handling of the 996.

My choice:
Toyota for a daily driver,
the Porsche if I just needed another car to add to the stables for a few drives a year and some club races.
supras have been pretty dominant in the JGTC over the last few years.....
