991 Turbo
http://www.roadandtrack.com/go/futur...sche-911-turbo
PDK only, but wider (even than 4S), active aero, and 0-60 in 3 flat. May achieve CGT's Nürburgring time. Wow. |
Under 7:30 huh? I will bet anything Porsche is still bending over backwards to make sure it's slower than the GT3 again. While the competition continues to put large margins on both of them. Starting to wonder what these guys are are smoking over there.......
i hope their profit margins come to a screeching halt at the hands of GM,SRT,Nissan and why we are at it, Audi, Ferrari, Lambo since that's who they want to be now. Maybe that will force them to start from scratch and think about building the best cars and not milking their customers and using racing gimmicks to sell cars. |

vw turbo
So there will be 3 tubs?
Carrera Carrera 4 (same as GT3 and Cup) Turbo The new turbo appears to have what turbo owners want. Not cheap, but then again it never was. I suspect the RS will share the tub with the turbo........ |
Even if the lap time is the same as the GT3, that will be on different tires since the TT won't come with R-comps. On the same tires, the TT should be faster.
In the videos the new TT sure does look fun and lively. Lighter and RWD is more my thing, but still... |
As fast as that car is with all the nannies and turbo charging it and the GT3 are not even close to the stock 3 year old ACR which chugged out an 7:12!!! The new SRT will be even quicker. Allan
Ps, Still 6 speed. Ha! :) |
And, still sounds like a hoover vacuum cleaner. :D
|
At this point if a 911 is going to be a video game car that's all computer driven then a GTR would be a better choice.

If they made it lighter ( which they can from the factory) ,same coilovers as a gt3, sticky tires, and lsd = faster then a 991 GT3 no questions asked. To bad the car does not look good thus far to my eye...
To sell as many different 911's as possible the Turbo must stay slower than the GT3 from their standpoint or it will steal sales from the GT2 for sure and probably the GT3. But I agree, the 991 Turbo is a complete miss in the looks department. I also agree, at this point, might as well buy a GT-R than the 991 GT series. |

On paper it will be slower, but once a 991 Turbo installs the same tire compound as a GT3 on I don't believe that will be the case.
McLaren Mp4-12c is looking better and better every day... |
