I think someone could make pretty good money taking the new 911 turbo to a dig only cash days 1/8 mile drag race event. I have a hard time seeing most anything staying with it, at least consistently.

If I had all the money in the world, this would be my personnel supercar. It does everything so well.

Very few vehicles out there quicker than the 911 Turbo S Lightweight.
  • 60 mph: 2.1 sec
  • 1/4-Mile: 9.9 sec @ 139 mph

The Plaid is a brute, no doubt. But it would get slower and slower as an evening went on.

While the Porsche could do 50 straight launches at identical times. I think it was Road & Track that launched a 911 turbo 50 times in a row a few years back and it would have launched over an over all day. Pretty amazing as they have figured out launch control like no other.

As a benchmark:
Tesla Model S Plaid 0 to 60mph ~2.0 secs

But

Porsche 992 Turbo S Lightweight 0 to 60mph = 2.1 secs

Base price of the Turbo S increased by $9K to $216K. Supposedly model year 2024 will be a hybrid. The hybrid will of course have another price increase. No one seems to know when ICE only engine will be discontinued.

Indeed, those German engineers

...but still rather have the less refined, decidedly slower, and cheaper GT3.

I don't give a shit what the general public likes. Half the videos that are posted here, if they have some annoying retard, er I'm sorry "personality", I won't watch it.

It's funny because he never used to do that.

This is one of my absolute all time favorite cars ever made!!! My recent build! Just got it a few weeks ago. Chalk on Chalk. Wheels are going on this week. And then a tune is all that left. Should be close to 800hp when done.
