It didn't beat it around Nurburgring. 7:59 (Carrera S) vs. 8:04 and the Cayman S had ceramic brakes, and both cars were driven by the same driver (hopefully Swamp won't freak out here). So where did it beat it, Top Gear track? Why would you use the word embarrass anyway? Can you guys not comment without trying to take jabs? I don't own Porsche. They decide what they want from their designs. But I'm quite happy to own a 997S versus a Cayman S. My next car will be the Carrera GTS.
