I like Ferrari and Porsche but I prefer Ferrari because they never look the same. In Porsche every car except the Cayenne and Carrera GT are the same. I mean if im in the street and I see a Porsche Turbo I think its a 911 until i look at the back. I respect both and I like both they are really good!

indeed, but even the Carrera S has 400HP from a 3.8L flat-6. And the 4.0L flat-6 in the GT3 RS has 500HP! To me that is astonishing from a 6 cylinder NA engine.

Why change something that isn't broken?

[kevinnatorgmxde]

only the 911 series looks the same ;)

[Max Power]

You've got a Porsche 911 so you'll have a thin wife... hahaha

Naturally aspirated means no turbos. The Carreras and the GT3 RS do not use turbos.

[MrBlitzed111]

none of this changes the fact that 911's look like they are built for a girl

That's as simple as turning up the boost. The GTR can easily have more horsepower with ecu tuning

[BBCQuestionTime]

What's more, the GT2 RS develops 611 hp from its 3.6-litre twin-turbo flat-6, which is also astonishing, as the engine's smaller than the Nissan GT-R (3.8-litre twin-turbo V6), yet it develops more power and torque - 620PS/699Nm for the GT2 RS, 537PS/612Nm for the GT-R.
