This latest episode of DRIVE sees Chris Harris pointing out that the €200,000 price tag on the Porsche 911 Turbo S puts it in the same bracket as McLaren’s 12C.
Propelled by a twin-turbocharged 3.8-litre flat-six engine developing 560 hp (412 kW) and 710 Nm of torque, the S takes just 3.1 seconds to crack 100 km/h before reaching a 318 mph (197 mph) top speed, while its British rival uses a twin-turbocharged 3.8-litre twin-turbo V8 producing 459 kW (616 hp) and 600 Nm allowing an identical 0-100 km/h time to the Porsche’s but a higher maximum of 333 km/h (207 mph).
Where would your money go?
