2008 Porsche GT2 caught

Frankfurt 2007: 2008 Porsche GT2 caught behind closed doors - Autoblog
530 horsepower from a twin-turbo version of the automaker's famous flat-six, 0-60 mph in 3.7 seconds, a 204-mph top speed, and 18.8 mpg - very interesting!

You got to wonder about these advertised numbers. Porsche at its website advertises 3.7 for the TT and isn't it like 3.4 with the auto and sport button? Even R&T got a claimed 3.9 from a 997S in 2005 without even the X51 package. I suspect that 3.7 number is very conservative.

0-60 is going to also be affected by traction, the AWD Turbo in automatic has quite an advantage compared to the RWD manual GT2.

I like those wheels..wonder what they would look like on a cayman..
