Porsche Carrera GT and Porsche 911 R are two of the most special and most famous Porsche ever created. The Carrera GT is more powerful but the 911 R is so hot today and is getting a lot of fans. So the guys at SuperCar Driver Youtube decided to bring both cars together and delve deeper into the debate. Which one is the better Porsche? Find out in the video below.
The Contenders
The Porsche Carrera GT is one of the most special Porsche ever created. It is a very valuable young classic, and will soon be even more special with the coming of the new version. It is practically a runaway car racing to the streets with a pointed engine atmospheric V10 5.7 liters and 612 horsepower, according to Carscoops.
The Porsche 911 R is the king of Porsche nowadays and is being sought out by car enthusiasts. Only 991 units have been manufactured and sold at a price of just over $600,000. The problem is that these very exclusive Porsche have been victims of who have purchased with the sole purpose of making easy money: considering that many are advertised by four to five times its original value. But one should not have such a beast caged because it is a machine made to run free on the road.
The 911 R is a successor of the Porsche 918 Spyder - the gas-electric Porsche that still holds the Nurburgring production car record, despite Koenigsegg, Mclaren and perhaps Pagani and is the reason for its popularity. It is a lightweight car, whose aspirated engine - with flywheel lightened and spike-heeled machine - four liters is associated with a manual gearbox, which only moves the rear. It is so fast and refined that it is even 0.1 seconds faster than the Porsche Carrera GT in the 0 to 100 km/h.
Porsche Carrera GT vs Porsche 911 R
SuperCar Driver Youtube has compared both cars from the point of view of a driving enthusiast, with the help of Carl Hartley and a lucky owner of a 911R, according to Motorward.
The owner of a Porsche Carrera GT talk about how complicated driving it could be, the difficulty of a clutch and how nervous he can handling its power but once one can get the feel, the Carrera is a perfect car. However, as superb as the 911 R is in driving it and with its 500 hp engine, the Carrera is a living history and may be the greatest Porsche of all time.
