Impressive numbers from the G! It's funny, I am always surprised when a Porsche loses even though the numbers strongly favor the competition. I'd still take an RS anyday!

The RS is my winner. The orange RS looks better than the yellwo Gallardo in the magazine. I look that I buy one and take some pics.

actually it can only be way off for both the GT3 and RS since they are only 0.1 seconds apart in ALL acceleration figues...

Ok .........who determined that these two cars are in the same league?

Again.........why just because the "RS" has lesser numbers, do people think the other car is a "superstar"?
  • The lambo has 115 more HP
  • The lambo weighs 350 lbs less
  • The lambo has 4WD
  • The lambo has sequential E-shift/paddle shift transmission
  • 10 cyl/ 4961cc vs 6cyl/ 3600cc
This car should spank the RS with these numbers.......but it doesn't.

IMO.........These numbers show the stout platform Porsche has put together for the RS and GT3.

Yeah.........alot of cars will equal or barely beat the GT3/RS........the question is should this model porsche even be this close!
