This car looks amazing - 700 hp, 550 ft/lb and top speed of 211mph. Been a while since a GT2 was an option, and I loved the fact they went to an RS version from the start.

They are saying 2.8 seconds 0-100kmph but I think that has to be conservative since the Turbo S does it in 2.9 seconds.Originally Posted by Darkane

I have to believe that they've figured out how to launch a rear axle drive car, with minimal slip. Their PDK is stupid good.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Turbo S is actually 2.5 0-60.
Porsche grossly understates the performance figures. This will do 2.6-2.7

I know nothing of Porsches, other than the fact that I can't afford one. How does this differ from the "base " 911 or the carerra 4 GTS? I have a relative thinking of buying one of those.

Those numbers seem slightly off, there's closer to 250 hp and 150 ft/lbs torque difference between the GTS and the GT2 RS. The GT2 RS is the fastest 911 ever made.
The major/only real difference between a Carrera GTS and a Carrera 4 GTS is that the former is rear drive, and the latter is all wheel drive.
