  • 2010 Porsche Turbo (997.5) 0-60 in 3s?

    Drivers are saying its the best Porsche of all time:

    It is a bold statement, but the 911 Turbo with PDK is the world's best vehicle for passing. It's an honor we previously bestowed on the Nissan GT-R, an engineering masterpiece known for its explosive power and grip. While Godzilla would never be called a slouch, the nearly 350-pound lighter and quicker-shifting PDK-equipped Turbo instantaneously rewards a firmly depressed throttle pedal with a Mike Tyson punch in the backside.

    Under the rear decklid of the 2010 Turbo is the most powerful, and most fuel efficient, engine the automaker has ever offered...

    From a standing start, 60 mph will arrive in 3.2 seconds (some reports peg it to an even three seconds) with 124 mph eclipsed after just 11.3 seconds...

    Equipped properly (sans PCCB), a Turbo Coupe will set you back about $143,000.

              Unfortunately you'll save about 50 grand on the GT-R vs the Porsche!

                  Well do you really?

                  New tranny, and a completely voided warranty. Just isn't really worth it.

                  On 6speed one dude bought both when they came out. In the end the Nissan ended up costing him another 20 grand after a season of tracking them equally. Nissan in the end bought his back, as it was just such a piece of ****.

                      i think i still rather a gt3, cause it looks better and probably sounds better. its supposed to have a faster 100-200km/h than the turbo.

                        I think that was true before the updated to the 997.5 generation for 2010, the reduction in weight and the bump in performance of the Turbo might put it ahead...
