I have been tossing around the idea of buying a cayman so I went to test drive one today. While I was there, there was a used 2009 GT3 sitting in the lot. I decided to take that for a spin when I was highly surprised that my S feels a lot faster. I had this thing floored to the redline on the highway and said to myself "that's it?"

BTW I have an AP2 w/ the PTuning kit gtx30 turbo pushing about 447.4 HP & 319.1 torque the wheels.

 

Your S has more power and is lighter than the GT3, it feels faster because it is faster. The power delivery is also going to be much smoother on a GT3 vs. a turbo F22.

 

I mean dude, you have a 450whp s2k.. Not a lot of stock cars are going to keep up with that. If you drove a GT3 for freeway pulls you drove the wrong car. Hop in a bolt on turbo for that, but when you're in a GT3 enjoy the symphony of perfection that it is.

 

this thread is pretty useless. How are you going to compare them. Of course your higher hp and lighter S is going to be faster then a stock GT3.

 

I have never researched the specs for the GT3 before test driving it. I assumed it would be faster than my S just from the looks and the price tag. Just sharing my thoughts on here while I was on the test drive. After doing some research on the car of course it makes sense that my car would feel faster.

 

Haha its understandable to believe it, but I mean how much money did you put into your S to make it where its at

 

It might feel faster, but it's not.

Unless your S goes faster than 193mph.

 

well torque and acceleration wise his is faster, whether or not his top speed is that high, I don't know, but being faster doesn't mean you need a higher top speed

 

An S with a sub 4 second 0-60???

 

That I doubt, but he said he did pulls on the highway. Don't know about from a standstill. I'm going off what he's saying. I know how fast a GT3 is
