Surprised by that. At VMAX I've attended the Lambo has always trounced the gen 1 991 turbo S.

Can't help feeling Porsche being sneaky by low balling power claim for gen 2 991 turbo. Styling on both pretty long in the tooth already.

Wasn't exactly a VMAX test though, was it?

I don't know whether it's the inherent drivetrain layout, or if Porsche have nailed launch control, but basically you can't beat a Turbo off the line.

Still academic. I real life, aside from sprints and racing, who ever does a standing start?

Every owner of a turbo - it's their party trick.

It may be marginally slower but I would still have the lambo over the 991. That noise cloud9
