911 (991) [Official] Porsche 911 Turbo (991)

[DeDe]

Spanish AutoBild tested the 520-hp basic Turbo. It's almost on the level of the previous Turbo S.
0 - 50 km/h: 1,2 s
0-100 km/h: 3,1 s
400 m: 11,1 s

Just stumbled upon an old Autobild Sportscars mag, where they tested the old 997 Turbo S: 0-100 km/h 3.1s, 0-200 km/h 10.0s. IN comparison the new one is not that fast 2.8s, 9.6s, it actually seems it only has better traction in the beginning as it gains only 0.1s to 200 km/h. Respect to the old 997, the weight is also roughly the same.

I would have actually expected better results...

^So without rollout 0-100 km/h in 3,0 s and 0-200 km/h (quarter mile trap speed also) in 11,1 s. Strange, compared to the German results (9,6-10,2 s)...

The condition of the surface is no reason, the car still managed a 0-50 kph time of 1,2 s (which is brutal, Sportscars did 1,1). 100-200 kph is slow, relatively of course.

If I am not mistaken, the last Turbo S (997) has posted the same numbers in R&T...

Must be the

Then it must be CA 91 octane gas

AutoBild Sportscars published the exact 0-100 kph time from their 991 Turbo S comparison:
2,76 s

I heard that they used the wrong norm at the dyno-measuring, the car produced less than 600 hp.

Look at these results with 664 PS. 0-200 kph 9"5 and 400m 10"7.

I'm not so sure that Turbo S was really rated less than 600 PS.

Where are the funny clowns that talked times ago about Ferrari manipulations? It seems they are disappeared as soon as a Porsche come out of claims! Congratulations for your puffer fishes faces.

dear F40, do you remember three years ago?
you and I were two poor derelicts, liars and hypocrites as the Prancing Horse. Three years ago, here and on other forums too, the correctness was the only important thing during the reviews.
+1ps : manipulations!
+/- 0.1 tyres pressure: manipulations!
eng. on track during the review: manipulations
0-200 0.1s better than claim: manipulations
ab illo tempore, Mafalda wrote - no one cares for the correctness, because there have been so many "suspicious" tests, and no one has ever complained. Now, all moralists.... now and forever, ferrari-reviews will all be "manipulated," and the "Others" will be ok -
What about after three long years? a almost-every ferrari's reviews, suspects and hilarity, but if the Others puts extra power, race tyres or improved setup , as you can see, no one cares about it...
It's so sad

Talk about the 991 turboS, I think it's no a scandal or a manipulation, becase I think all the stock units have more than 560ps (maybe not 607)
