That's not to say that the R8 isn't capable, I took out to one of our local tracks the other week and it did absolutely great (brakes were a weak point eventually) but the EPS in the P-cars is next level.
It's a supercar, it gets attention - lots of attention... and I drove a Lava Orange 911. It's also IMMENSELY comfortable, 100% daily drivable. It really lives up to the everyday supercar stigma that it has.
I'd go for the R8 unless you can swing a 991.2 (not .1) GT3.

really helpful perspective, confirms how dominant that v10 experience is!
what spec is your 2017 spyder? mag ride? sports exhaust?
