I saw this Fifth Gear video and thought the two cars were incredibly close. Close enough to blame the GTR's loss to a number of variables (eg driver).
What do you all think? Which of the two would you rather drive?
Some numbers:
_____________911 Turbo S:________________2012 GTR:
HP======= 530 hp @ 6250 rpm___________530 horsepower @ 6,400 rpm
Torque==== 516 lb-ft @ 2100 rpm__________448 lb-ft @ 5,200 rpm
Weight==== 3550 lb______________________3829 lb
0-60====== 2.9 sec______________________2.8 sec
1/4 Mile==== 10.9 sec @ 128 mph___________11.0 sec @ 124 mph
Base Price== $160,050_____________________$89,950
I know other numbers would be more telling, such as 80-130 mph times, but I couldn't find any. Feel free to add your own or correct mine. I'd take the Turbo S, despite being double the price.
