Interesting comparison. The figures for the PDK-cars are however wrong in comparison. You picked the Sport+ time for GTS but without Sport+ for the rest Smiley.

You could be right, I got the figures from the Porsche press kit but it is true, the values for the Carrera S and Carrera mention PDK but not Sport Chrono. Which makes the whole powerkit deal look even worse. Smiley I'm actually quite surprised that 23 hp make such a minor difference but I guess it was to be expected.

As to the real life test values of the Carrera S with PDK and Sport Chrono, here are the results from Sport Auto:

0-100 kph in 4.4 seconds

0-200 kph in 14.9 seconds

 

Carrera (base model with manual):

0-100 kph in 5.1 seconds

0-200 kph in 17.4 seconds

 

Another comparison, 997.1 Carrera S (pre-facelift, manual):

0-100 kph in 4.8 seconds

0-200 kph in 16.0 seconds

This is how I expect 911 models against my E92 M3.

997.1 Carrera S w/manual tranny is slightly slower BUT 997.2 Carrera S w/PDK + SC is slightly faster than my E92 M3 w/DKG from 0 to 200 km/h.

A couple of days ago, I had a brief run against my friend's 997.1 Carrera S w/tiptronic and I blew him away, as expected by me; but he was surprised. 997.1 Carrera S/4S w/tiptronic is slower than E46 M3 coupes. so his car had no chance.

Sorry to hijack the thread. Smiley
