CloseWhat is missed in all of this, is this is the first time I can remember that a test between cars was done when the PORSCHE WAS THE HIGHEST PRICED VEHICLE.

I could not find a suitable thread for this beauty, but since it was parked next to a yellow 991.2 Turbo S the pics go here. Spotted in Båstad, Sweden, yesterday. A truly beautifully restored 911:

Nice, that's a Short Wheelbase car. If it's an original 911S (would be with those wheels), it's either a 67 or 68 - love it!

Someone already posted that video earlier...what an idiot. Luckily he didn't hit anyone or another car.

Heres a couple of comments between a watcher and driver:
I have hard time believing the Porsche couldn't win that race against the McLaren.
Rowan Horncastle Top Gear Staff McKnull • 7 hours ago
So did I... and I was driving the Porsche. And don't worry, we did it a few times just to make sure. Where the Porsche would beat it initially, once the clever McLaren had learned the surface and got tyre temp, it'd beat it time after time. The way the 570S romps off mid-race is really quite astonishing. It's a very, very quick thing. Don't underestimate it.

EnglishManInNY:Guess it helps with the 570S having 625+ hp.....
570S 0-200 and 0-300 kph times were close to 650S times, so I guess McLaren didn't even bother to lower the power. 
I just hope that customers get the same performance...all the reviewed 570S so far have been factory cars.

kingjr9000:That one is much slower than the top gear one.
Turbo...not Turbo S (Top Gear). 
Still, it destroys the Jag.

Thats also another reason why they claim the p14 will have to move the game on, and separate itself from the 570s line. I just hope the others can match it since there are a few rumors it may come with a 4.0

Improved transmission, less downforce, better LC.
Remember, we haven't seen a roll race between a 650S/12C and a 570S yet. I think you'll see that in conditions where a 570S seems as quick as the others, it may be that the others are quicker still. Unless you put them side to side, it's hard to say.
Excitement about a car sounds different... 
I fully agree with him, the best all-round sportscar on the market but...
