Manufacturer claims 0-60 times (997S) in 4.6 seconds. R&T claims 4.4 seconds, the latest Motor Trend claims 4.2 seconds, and C&D claims 4.3 (997). With respect to the 04 GT3 (3.9 sec) the 997S is on average 4/10's of a second slower !! I bet with a few tweaks (chip, intake and exhaust) the 997S could be just as fast as the latest GT3. I know C&D tests are usually exagerated for whatever reasons (they would probably claim 4.0 sec for the 997S), but R&T and Motor Trend are usually pretty accurate. The Lamborgini Gallardo, with 500 hp, did 0-60 in 4.4 seconds. The standard brakes on the 997S were amazing also, 60-0/107 feet. I wonder what the Ceramics are capable of?? I own a 997S w/ceramics and the deceleration g-forces are hair raising! Take care folks....
What kind of in-gear acceleration times do you get with the 997S... say:

60-120 mph
60-100 mph
50-110 mph (you can pick the fastest starting gear and shift once)

also what's is acceleration in 3rd gear from 60 mph - 100 mph

bpanos if you get Christophorus goto page 31 and look at the info on PCCB it shows nothing about shorter stopping distances.
