PS, message to Jasem, it was the original 474 BHP 911 that did a 1.24.1 at Bedford, the 997.2 Turbo hasnt been tested there - yet.

This car seems to have been set up to optimise the 0-100 KPH and 0-100 MPH sprints. Above 140 MPH and it starts to slow...on the race they held at London Airport back in 2006 or 2007 it only managed 162 MPH, the same as a BMW M6 which was on it's limiter!

In fact at Bruntingthorpe the 997.1 GT3 went 4 MPH quicker, so any Turbo drivers confident of outdragging a GT3 driver on the autobahn had better think again. The 997.2 Turbo clearly rectifies the situation...

0-60 has been recored at 3.1 seconds. It beats the GT-R off the line.

Im pretty sure tho 0-100kmh is 3.7, the fastest 0-60mph time i can find is 3.4, so 3.5s to 100kmh?

Actually its not, there both even, look at there track times, both have 399 points, and the GT2 is quite faster in a straightline.

GT2 slower than the GT-r as compared to in track tests and the proofs in the pudding. No doubt a beautiful car and has racing heritage, but the GT-r is an engineering marvel and the GT2 is done.

Thats what the GT2 is for.

Gotta crank that boost if you want to beat the GT-r.

Costs $80,000 but sm with a dealer markup, it is quite the bargain and does look good.

People are scared of change and thus the negativity towards the GT-r but the truth is the GT-r has overwhelmed alot of exotics with ease. It looks awesome in person , and only costs about $100,000, a bargain.
