You have two options:

1) Take on-board, there is NO manual

2) sue Porsche up the wazoo until they fit one, and then pray the development costs make them conclude that the GT3 could do with one too, if only to distribute the fixed overhead cost variance (that should press a few Stuttgart accountant's hot buttons enough to stop messing with a winning formula)

You purchase it and hope it's as good as you believe :thumb:

Certainly saves the PPI costs of getting involved :thumb:
 
Id wager strong money that the quoted performance stats are v. conservative for both turbo and S - this car when tested by the press will post sub 3 secs. Porsche have a tradition of down playing their flagship weapon speed and I wouldn't be surprised if the S is down to 2.6 sec 0-62. they always surpass the last model in the real world

thoughts ?

Yes could well be, the previous model managed 2.7 to 60...

Some mightily impressive figures there - if the 991 can beat that then I doff my cap :salut:
 
Yes funny how the TurboS came top of their group test, for the GT2RS to come bottom in a similar one a little later??
 
The problem with a GT2RS is getting all that power down cleanly from the starting line - that and the lost time with gear changes...

I'd still have one though :grin:
 
Agreed, I'm surprised there's not a 2wd loony button in the new S... :mrgreen:
 
Juicy looking automobile
I just hope somebody buys one so at least it makes it down the food chain. Something to look forward to.

Any GT2 vs Turbo times from rest to 60 can often favour the Turbo.

However, from a rolling start in second(from about 25mph) or when dropping down a gear or two and giving it the beans the GT2 is king.
