For my money, the 991S will just eke out a win over the performance-packaged C63 in a standing start quarter mile, and both will pretty much crush the M3 in that endeavor. The C63 will be running the Porsche down at that point, but the rear-biased weight distribution plus launch control with PDK will ju-ust be able to eke out the win for the 991S over the Merc - maybe seven times out of ten contests with differing examples of the breeds.
Out on the open road, the current C63 power pack will rule over the Porsche and bimmer.
