Latest GTR vs 991 Porsche Turbo S

Nice launch race and a pretty strong win for the Pcar (hope not a repost)

and yes we all know what costs more

if tahts what you meant i would disagree...

Turbo S beats an older model GTR (with some minor tweaks) by not much at almost double the cost.

991 GT3 have stopped sales and stopped owners driving them because they literally catch on fire.

The 918 was awesome until the P1 came out and completely demolished it.

OK. Cool. You disagree.

Also show me the 918 vs P1 comparisons side by side. I'll wait. No personal opinions though.

oops...let me reiterate...the 918 is still an awesome car but was demolished by the P1...

A review is a review, whether it is personal opinion or not - but to have multiple reviewers say the same thing, oh, and a porsche whore to say that it doesn't match up to the P1 says something.

Its just not top dog in its class, which I was 100% expecting it to be....

Nothing wrong with that right?

Not good enough. Show the side to side comparison where the P1 demolished the 918. I want to read that article.

I get it. You love Pcars - so do I. I need to buy a GT3 before I die. But does that mean there are absolutely no cars better than theirs? Porsche is about driving dynamics and when a reviewer says the P1's dynamics are on another level (Steve Sutcliffe and Chris Harris - they are both porsche lovers too)....

as for stats...

so am I....I guess rumors are that Ferrari either can't get the tech down, or, that they were waiting for the P1 to be released and when it did, said, shit, back to the drawing board! lol

I was actually anxiously awaiting the 918 and when it did it blew my fucking mind. I've never been a maclaren fan (yes the 12c is just bleh to me) but when i saw the p1 review from Autocar/Evo/Drive I was actually amazed....I mean, KERS in a road car?! (granted a super duper car). just stating this since i may have come off like a maclaren fanboi

but yes, we are ALL waiting for ferrari to do its thing....i recently drove a 458 around a track and holy bat shit that was a fun and badass car to drive.

The P1 is a lot more expensive if I am not wrong. The 918 is definitely the best looking Porsche of all time, at least to me.
