Default Porsche 911 GT2 RS vs Carrera video - worth the £100k premium?

today on Aoutcar.co.uk

Porsche's new 612bhp 911 GT2 RS is the most powerful production Porsche the sports car firm has ever produced. But is its £164k price tag worth the £100k premium over the standard - and brilliant - entry-level Carrera model?

Jamie Corstorphine compares the two in a series of head-to-head tests - including acceleration and around the track - to find out.

0 -150 mph GT2 RS = 15 seconds!
0 - 150 mph Carrera = 28.7 seconds.... wow

In my opinion the GT2RS could only be worth a 100K premium over the base Carrera due to it being a limited edition. £100K buys a couple of turbos & few bits of bling. For the same price as a 458 or a MP4-12C. As much as I love Porsche, if I was in the market at this price point, I think I would be handing my money to the Italians or Ron Dennis.
