Get a test drive in both, you may like the experience of a GT better than a F6 (even knowing they are slightly faster stock). I did. |

| If you're buying new, the BOSS315 has an even better delivery of power. |

| They (the 290's) apparently go bit better (espeically) down low with a tune, frees up the torque limitation, and removes the throttle lag. |

engine/drive line - nothing
brakes - GT-P gets 6/4 F/R pot Brembos stock (optional on GT, 4/2 Brembos stock)
interior - better seats (that's a matter of opinion, if your a fatty the GT seats will probable be more comfy, the GT-P seats are heavily bolstered)
exterior - shadow chrome highlights (GT gets plain black).
Since you're going second hand, a GT-P is more likely to be optioned up (because most were freebies, except satnav and sunroof), and more likely to be an auto. GT's were more often manual. Having said that, there's no shame in the 6spd auto, it's easily the match to a good driver in a manual. |

thanks data_mine.
i was thinking the GTP primarily because of the seats, they are sooooooo good. the car wont be standard for very long though cause i can see a supercharger or TT conversion going onto it mmmmm. im not in the city very often due to work so i like to have something nice to play with when i come back to the city. |
