PORSCHE 911 GT3

34. 9FF PORSCHE 911 GT3 RS  G TURBO 1000


Well, here it is. Saw this car on the 14th of June at the Nürburgring, but never thought about looking it up, so here is the specs list:

-950 hp
-910 Nm
-RWD
-6-speed-manual
-1405 kg
-Top speed: ~360 km/h
-0-100 km/h: 3,8 s
-0-200 km/h: 8,7 s
-0-250 km/h: 12,4 s
-0-300 km/h: 18,1 s - 0.1 sec faster than a Veyron!

PORSCHE 9FF 997

35. PORSCHE 9FF 997 BT-2

  • German tuners 9ff have released a new tuning package for the Porsche GT2, advancing on their previous design.  The new 9ff BT2 (bi-turbo 2) gives the driver access to a ridiculous amount of power: 850 horsepower, and a maximum 920 Nm of torque.
  • Perhaps this will send American tuning company Switzer Performance back to the drawing board.  
  • Although no details yet on engine modifications the BT2's numbers will get the Porsche fanboys salivating.  All that power gets the car from a standstill to 100 km/h in just 3.0 seconds.  200 km/h can be achieved in 8.7 seconds, while getting to 300 km/h takes 18.5 seconds.  Eventually, the car will hit its massive top speed of 386 km/h, or 240 mph.
  • If you want something that is even quicker, 9ff has you covered.  The company is willing to modify the gearing to increase acceleration, while decreasing the car's top speed.
  • Seen here honoring in its Gulf Livery glory, the car uses lightweight alloys and carbon fiber body panels to keep weight to a minimum.  New body panels include a hood, doors, and roof, all custom built for the project, and all using the original mounting points.  The company claims that the new Aero kit provides an additional 70 kg of downforce at the front, and 90 kilos more at the rear. 
  • Those of you wanting to buy the new 9ff BT2 will have to fork over €285,000.  This amounts to €95,500 over the starting price for a GT2 direct from Porsche.

KOENIGSEGG CCR vs PORSCHE CARRERA

KOENIGSEGG CCR VS PORSCHE CARRERA


PORSCHE RUF CTR3

37. PORSCHE RUF CTR3

The car itself has been transformed to support the new mid-engine design with galvanized steel used for the front structure and passenger compartment. The powertrain has been fixed in a space frame and modular tubular frame construction. Inside, the passenger compartment is reinforced with RUF’s Integrated Roll Cage.
Engine-wise, the twin-turbocharged powerplant features a pair of intercoolers – one for each turbo – placed in front of each rear wheel. Mated to the 3.8L flat-six is a transversely mounted sequential 6-speed transmission with a limited slip differential.
The CTR 3 also features a staggered set of 19-inch wheels in the front and 20-inch wheels in the rear, with the widebody fitting 335/30/20 tires in the back. Those interested in purchasing a CTR 3 can also have the interior customized to their liking with leather and Alcantara options.
All said and done, the CTR 3 weighs in at 3,086-lbs and with 750-hp, it has a power-to-weight ratio of 4.4-lbs per hp. That makes for a 0-62 mph time of just 3.2 seconds and a top speed of (380 KMPH)236-mph.

PORSCHE SPORTEC SPR1R

39.PORSCHE SPORTEC SPR1R


Standing still means moving backwards – and that is why it is tradition in the Sportec company to try and make perfection just that bit better. For this reason the 2010 SPR1 R now not only has a traction enhancing four-wheel drive but also several other extras suitable for a race track. Each wheel drive on the SPR1 R can produce 214.5 PS.
That equates to a not unsporty Golf GTI motorization per wheel and a total performance of a fantastic 858 PS.
The high revolution 3.6 litre flat twin engine with biturbo charge was in addition equipped with a Smooth Flow air intake with two fuel injection ducts per combustion chamber, titan connection rods, a valved exhaust system, a infinitely variable cam shaft, a carbon Ram Air intake system, a high performance charge-air cooler and two hybrid turbo chargers.
Each separate part of the motor electronics is calibrated on Sportec’s four-wheel drive engine test bench to the latest conditions. The results of this precision work on the SPR1 R make a top performance of 858 Ps at 8,200/min along with a gigantic torque of 880 NM possible – and that by just 4,800 revs.
With an optimised start-up high performance clutch, the new four-wheel drive and a limited slip differential the record-breaking performance is ideally brought onto the tarmac. A traction and launch control that can be individually adjusted by means of an “STS” touchscreen unit in the centre console ensures an optimum start.
Thus equipped the R-model achieves acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in only 3 seconds. The 200 km/h mark is reached by the motorised understatement in just 8.3 seconds and the 300 km/h limit in 18 seconds and a top speed of 380 kmph.

FERRARI GTO 599 VS PORSCHE 911 TURBO

FERRARI GTO 599 VS PORSCHE 911 TURBO

PORSCHE RUF RT 12R

TOP 50 SPORTS CARS OF ALL TIME :

50. PORSCHE RUF RT 12R
               
                   PORSCHE   makes some amazingly capable and exciting machines. 

Based on the PORSCHE 911 TURBO the Ruf Rt 12 R begins life with the stock 3.8-liter twin-turbo flat-six engine. That unit is good for 500 horsepower and 480 pound-feet of torque (516 lb-ft with the overboost function). After Ruf gets its mitts on the powerplant, output swells to 730 hp and 693 lb-ft of torque. The engine is paired to Porsche's six-speed manual transmission and all-wheel-drive system. And if you're a rich lunatic, you can opt for rear-wheel drive.

Ruf also works its magic on the body of the Rt 12 R. Carbon fiber is applied to the front fenders, hood, luggage cover, seats and is available optionally on the roof. The side and rear windows are plastic instead of glass to further aid in the quest for lightness. This weight reduction, along with the massive increase in power, has helped Ruf claim an impressive 230 mph top speed for the Rt 12 R



With a price tag of 37000$ this cool car can hit a top speed of 370 kmph(230 mph) and 0-100 kmph(62 mph) in 3.2 seconds.
