Stupid Swedish.

THE 997 911 s beats the M3 E92. This test is "manipulated". 355 Bmp straigt on the backwheel on a Porsche is more power than 420 in an BMW.

The numbers speaks for it self.

[m5boarddotcom]

You are a stupid Norweigen :)

Numbers speaks for themselves: M3 is powerful.

[lonjon777]

We Norwegian are more stupid than you Swedish, I admit that. :-), But you are stupid as well...:-)

There is a lot shorter drive-chain in a Porsche, more efficent. 911 doesn't need that much power to go fast.

[m5boarddotcom]

Short drivetrain is a valid argument, havent heard that before.

Good point.

[chuchum3]

that can't be a S 997..maybe a regular 325hp 997..have raced both cars and a 997 S will walk away from the E92 M3

[m5kicksass]

yep, i agree

[altair021]

ya POrsche is faster of course, but the problem here that these cars r Manual, so it depend on how good the driver is.

i just saw Race but between M3, Carrera s convertables, the Porsche blow the M3.

its all about the driver in Manual

[allineed7]

the porsche is not the 2009 carrera s model! its the old 997 carrera s with 355 hp! and the european version of the m3 has 420 hp! ;-)

[MacAppleJack]

Must cant drive a porsche dude your in a porsche 911 carrera s ....and you got wiped by a m3? either your car needs major work or you need major work.......LOL!

[cutelookindoctor]

Agree with you on the old mk1 997s. Even though the old 997s kicked the M6 on the Isle of Man street circuit. The new one MK2 is a different story. I used to race a rs6 on my way to work when i first got my mk1. It was pretty much even, which was down to weight. But when we got down to braking i was all over him.

[cutelookindoctor]

I would agree with you on the stock mk1. But with the powerkit its a different story. MK1 which should have had the 380 standard really like the Mk2 has now.

[mspruski]

It wont.

[mspruski]

I have raced 997 Carrera S (Mk I) many many times. M3 IS the faster car! My M3 is 100% stock. But 997 S Mk II is a different story.... way faster than current M3.

[lbarfett]

I never understand these races...in a former race of yours, a 415 hp gt3 (996) beats a 500hp Gallardo, but a 385 hp (997) loses to a portly 400hp M3...am I missing something here?

p.s. I'm not dissing the m3...magical car, but I thought Porsche faster

[golf1diesel]

you should race the c2s PDk with the DKG m3..

[ApocketrocketzA]

you think that you raced an M5 and an RS6 which has 571 bhp and mid range would rape your little 911, and they couldnt beat you.

they could not have been full throttle because simply the S is SLOWER
