man...this wouldn't even be close. 0-60 times are worthless measurements. There was a video on here a while ago of a GT700 TT vs a CGT and they were neck and neck. Now you think a 480-500hp 997 would be able to run with it?

Sorry, what I heard was that the new Turbo is faster 0-200 km/h than the CGT.

Not sure if they will release that version...seems stoopid.

I would say no way it's faster to 124 than a cgt. More weight, more drag and less power...it doesn't add up.

Agree 100%... doesn't add up. Unfortunately physics still rule our universe.
