T350 vs Porsche c4s / 993 T

[Diablos-666]

How would a 3.6 T350 fair against either a 997 c4s or 993 Turbo in terms of

0 - 60mph
0 - 100mph

Would the TVR win the acceleration test but maybe get pulled in once past the 100mph mark?

A 997 C4 is pretty equal.
Can't speak for a 993tt but they are effing quick.
A 996 Turbo would whip a T350.

yeah i knew the 996T would whip its arse that's why i didnt bother asking haha

i thought the c4s has roughly the same power but maybe a bit more weight. I think the top speed is about 180mph. I was behind one the other day and wondered if i'd get embarrassed?

Daft comparing Tvr with Porsche IMHO , Tvr's have no driver aids , figures for both are not often accurate , its the driver not the car that determines ability round a track , and you don't buy a porsche for character, sound and individuality !Porsches are ok but bleedin expensive and they are everywhere !

Don't quiet agree with this tbh - Whenever i'm in the trev and see a porker i sort of sense the rivalry between the tarmac - i like to drop a cog and squeeze the loud pedal as i go past, and have a great big grin on my face.

I'm quiet fond of the old porkers really but to say "you don't buy a porsche for character, sound and individuality" is not really true.

I agree that most probably just buy it for the badge & prestige but there are some out there that buy them because of their character, history etc... especially when you see a well looked after air cooled one.
