Default Does anyone know what kind of Porsche can...

The title of this video is written in Chinese but it simply means that BMW M3 and M5 got bullied by a Porsche on the freeway.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BKz5e...eature=related

What's interesting is that on the camera, it actually shows that the Porsche was dashing at speed of 341km/h (approximately 212mph) and could probably go faster if the guy hadn't slowed down.

Does anyone know if this car's stock? I don't think even a Carrera GT can go that fast, no?

Hard to tell what it is exactly but I can tell you its a 996 Porsche 911. From there the possibilities are endless. Could be a Ruf, could be Techart, speedart, Gembella. Could be a chipped and tuned turbo. Could be a GT2 STOCK.

Imagine if that Porsche hit a deer at that speed.

A stock 996 GT2 definitely couldn't do 212 mph.

Of course at that point you could just chalk it up to speedometer error.

ROFL did you even watch the video?

It starts off with this line "THE FASTEST CAR IN THE KOREA"

brb while i watch the rest of the video

Edit - Hmmm, my guess would be gemballa or 9ff. but there are waaaaaaaaay to many porsche tuners to tell who did it.


shoot, sportec has the 750 hp 997 that might be able to hit 240 mph+
