996T S question

[mr pg]

Did the last of the s's really have 489bhp? I thought they were 450bhp.

Had heard they had put GT2 engines in the final lot of the production line, not sure if true. Not the power they quote anyhow.

I'd never heard of this (but that's not to say it didn't happen) but the GT2 only ever had 483bhp which yielded a 0-62 of 4.1, so the claim that this Tiptronic cab does it in 3 is plainly BS.

'0-60 around the 3sec mark' ...afaik they were all M96/70E i.e 450hp... nice pink interior though.
