911 GTS vs. AMG GT S vs. F Type (spoiler inside)

Winner: 911 GTS - the King is still the undisputed King that cannot be matched. Bascially Mercedes' very best and Jag's very best against a mid tier 911 and the 911 trumps them with ease. And to think the 991 is 5 model years old and still cant be matched by the new cars being released and made just to compete with a 911. Turbo or Turbo S would have just made the beating worse.

http://www.caranddriver.com/comparis...omparison-test

"It (911) has the most grip here and the most proficiency going around corners"

"The Porsche’s engine, though lacking firepower here, is still a masterpiece"

"this (911) is still the best-driving high-end sports car extant. "

On another note, that AMG GT S is as fast in trap speed as a 991 GT3, though still would be looking at tailights of a turbo or turbo S as seen in comparos.

Just saw a motor trend head to head with the 335i M sport and the Jag XE S. All the strengths of the Jag were things that could have been said of the BMW 5-7 years ago. How times have changed.

I would take the V8TT AMG all day. Car is just amazing. That interior is drop dead beautiful.

Impressive test numbers from the AMG GT-S.

Handling I'd take the Porsche. Looks the Jaguar. Guessing the AMG is faster in a straight line but just not a fan of that phallic design.

When you have a comparison with a 911, the other cars are really just competing for 2nd place and onward.

Interior is nice, exterior I like but dont think its nearly as nice as the 911 or Jag. It should certainly be the fastest given its got a very underrated engine.

Porsche should change 911 design. It looks as boring as a Golf. Well, in fact they all look boring. they should take a lesson from Lexus, that is how you design an exciting car.
