Comparing The GT3 Touring With A 911T Is An Interesting Exercise

8/7/20187:05 estFiled to: Porsche vs.By: Bradley Brownell

In a special episode of The Smoking Tire's One Take series, Matt Farah brought along a friend in the form of Spike Feresten for a glorious drive in the canyons with a pair of special Porsches. Because Porsche loaned a 911T to Farah for the week, he called up Feresten who owns a GT3 Touring to bring it out for a back to back comparison. The two …

Comparing the Air Cooled Engine of a 993 to the Water Cooled Engine of a 996. What are the Differences?

2/26/20189:44 estFiled to: Porsche 993, Porsche 996, Porsche vs.By: Heidi and Franny

Franny explains the difference between a Porsche 993 engine and 996 engine

I’ve been around air-cooled cars all my life. Both my parents had VW Beetles, so when it came time to replace my hand-me down first car, a ’71 Ford Capri, it isn’t surprising I went for a ’72 Super Beetle. Then years later, after I found out that Heidi had an heirloom 1958 Porsche 356A Cabriolet in the family, I made it my mission to get that car …

Is the GT3 Touring Better Than a 911 R? Let’s See How They Compare.

9/21/20174:10 estFiled to: Porsche 991, Porsche vs.By: Chris Cushing

In my eyes, Porsche has been on a roll lately just turning the dial on certain models just a bit. Does the Carrera S need to be turned to 11? Yes, of course, so we have the Carrera GTS. Could the GT3 benefit from being dialed back to 9.5? Again, yes. The new GT3 Touring fills that niche beautifully. When I first saw the GT3 Touring, I was a little …

Tuned 993 Pushes a 991 GT3 RS Around the ‘Ring

9/21/20173:49 estFiled to: Porsche vs.By: Tommy Parry

With hundreds of thousands of dollars separating these two track tools, the owner of the lava orange 991 might feel a trifle embarrassed after getting hounded by a 993. However, he shouldn't feel too badly, because the man in the understated 993—a Mr. Sandro Ziegler—is a virtuoso. To be fair to the owner of the GT3 RS, this section of the …

Can you Compare a 996 Turbo to a 991.2 C4S?

5/31/20171:19 estFiled to: Porsche vs.By: 993C4S

Believe it or not, you can. With the 991 engines now featuring forced induction engines it's a much closer comparison then you would think. I know, they're generations apart in terms of size, design and technology, but from a straight performance specification standpoint, the two Porsches are almost identical. See the image below and you can see …

Porsche 991.2 Turbo S vs. Porsche 718 Boxster S Acceleration Comparison

12/12/20162:38 estFiled to: Porsche vs.By: 993C4S

Comparing a 911 Turbo S to a 718 Boxster S might not seem to make sense on the face of it. I mean we're talking 580 hp as compared to 350 hp and nearly a $120k in price difference. However, it's those exact details that make this comparison so intriguing. Normally, under ideal conditions, the type of conditions Porsche and most automotive …

Can You Daily Drive a 911 GT3?

12/5/20166:04 estFiled to: VideosBy: Pepper Girl

Have you met James, or Mr. JWW as he's know on YouTube? Mr. JWW is a "supercar vlogger". In other words, he's done well in life to afford some incredible machines and spends time creating videos about them. In turn, those videos are entertaining enough that he's collected over 150,000 subscribers to his channel along the way. Those aren't huge …

What to Buy: Porsche 911 R or Carrera GT?

11/6/201612:33 estFiled to: Porsche vs.By: 993C4S

Porsche 911 R vs Carrera GT

Porsche Carrera GT vs Porsche 911 R. It's not a comparison you would think to normally make. They're two completely different cars. Porsche's last true analog super car with a V-10 engine and no "nannies" vs. what may be one of their last normally aspirated flat-six engines in a light weight, no frills 911 shell. However, with 911 Rs now trading …

Watch a 993 Play Cat-and-Mouse With a Cayman GT4

8/22/20165:22 estFiled to: Porsche 993By: Chris Cushing

A 993 Carrera 4 is still a formidable performance car, even more than 20 years on. In the right hands a 993 is more than capable of hanging with modern performance cars. The white Carrera 4 3.6 appears to be track prepared, with stripped carpets and a few other visible mods. The car chiefly benefits from the elusive "driver mod." The driver's car …

The 911R vs. The 991 GT3 RS. Jack Olsen Drives Them Back to Back

4/28/20169:03 estFiled to: Porsche GT2/GT3, Porsche Limited Editions, Porsche vs.By: Jack Olsen

Editor's Note: Many readers of this site first "met" Jack Olsen after he, his Porsche and his garage were featured in a story on our site in one of Petrolicious' early videos. And while Jack was well known in the So Cal Porsche scene before that, he's gone on to become more of a "celebrity" lately thanks in part to the videos he continues to make …
