Just for reference, and you know whats coming, the new 911 with an expected weight of 3200 and 400 hp (P/W of 8) is still faster (7:40).


And for those who asked if the M3 with be around this time, dont hold your breath. Next M3 will likely be around what the GTS is, which also isnt a very impressive time.
I think someone is a little upset that Chev makes a Camaro that's similar to Porsche on the ring That is blasphemy!!!

However it is justified or dismissed, it is impressive... period.
