You do the math. Carrera GT weighs 3045 lbs with 600 plus hp. This one is less than 3000 lbs and has 700 hp.

It looks like ol Ruf is trying to put a beatdown on the CGT. Dont worry, the next Porsche supercar is due in a few years.

Wait till Gembella finishes their TT Carrera GT at around 1000hp. Porsche is my one and true love since 3 years of age.

...Still don't get it.






















Just kidding , yeah I knew it was faster having 100 more ponies in there and being lighter. I'm wondering now how fast could it go ..225, 230ish??? Well see if it actually goes up to 224 mph.

Damn, lovely, I've always liked the Cayman's styling. The rear window is the only part that is questionable.

*edit* Just saw the pics with the rear window covering removed, I'd drive it like that all the time. I want one. Maybe two.

From the reviews I've read on the base Cayman, they said it felt like Porsche de-tuned it so it wouldn't out perform the 911, and even with the de-tuning the Cayman was still faster in all handling tests. Looks like this car should be capable of beating any production Porsche.

Are you sure they're still doing it?

I know the concept for the Mirage GT, was supposed to have a twin turbo V-10, and pushing 1000hp. But, the only working versions I've seen to this point have the body styling done, and a small increase in hp, but no turbo's.
