I had the opportunity to drive both cars on the same day at Atlanta Motorsports Park. To me, the first big difference was power. It was very clear that the Turbo S offered much more torque due to the turbo itself. BUT, the GT3 RS was absolutely planted through the turns. I’m told that the GT3 RS can create upwards of 700 lbs. of downforce and I believe it! The cornering capabilities of the GT3 RS were noticeably superior to the Turbo S. Porsche has created two impeccable machines and both are a pleasure to drive. If someone were to ask me which car is faster “around the track?” I would give the GT3 RS the slight edge because of the downforce in the corners. If someone were to ask me which car is faster “in a straight line?” Bye bye GT3 RS, The Turbo S is hands down faster. Lesson of the day: If you’re driving down the road in your quarter million dollar Porsche 911/GT3 RS and you come up to a red light next to another Porsche. Make sure it’s not a 911/Turbo S before you take off, because if it is you’ll get smoked! 2017 Porsche 911 Split Personality: Turbo S vs. GT3 RS Porsche’s absolute peak of its 911 line is a Jekyll and Hyde story for the modern age. Both models are born from the same DNA, but one pampers its driver into overconfidence while the other shames them into submission. But which is more worth its barely under $200k sticker price? That ruling depends on your habits and preferences as a driver as well as your penchant for punishment. So let’s see how each model stacks up to decide which side of Jekyll/Hyde you prefer. Porsche 911 Turbo S: The Consummate Coddling CoupĂ© At 3,563 lbs and stuffed to the gills with every electronic nanny imaginable, the 580 hp 2017 Porsche 911 Turbo S is the absolute peak of what some define an exotic performance car to be. Put simply, all those gadgets tucked in neatly underneath gorgeous, curvaceous sheet metal can make you one hell of a driver. No, it won’t keep you from burning out the clutch on your brother-in-law’s manual farm truck or suddenly teach you how to exit a turn without nuzzling the wall, but what it will do is give you grip when and where you need it. And lots of it. The PTM (Porsche Traction Management) system continually re-vectors torque thousands of times throughout a turn to attain neutral handling in a stunning variety of situations. Turns that would normally result in catastrophic understeer can be navigated like a maĂźtre d dodges incoming busboys. When you turn a bit too aggressively and initiate what would have normally been a slide, PTM kicks in alongside an electronic locking differential to make the back wheels do the steering for you. But having an electronic guardian angel over your shoulder can easily cultivate bad habits and lead to overconfidence. Suddenly, you could get a bit too happy with the wheel and direct it towards the nearest retaining wall, with which the 911 Turbo S might happily comply. So, you should feel no shame in enjoying being pampered by the Turbo, but don’t let it spoil you into becoming a less attentive driver. Porsche 911 GT3 RS: Ferocious, Feral and Fun The 911 GT3 RS is the polar opposite approach to modifying the Carrera compared to the Turbo S. Strip out most of the nannies, take the stereo and sound-deadening with you, and strap in the closest engine you’ll get to a cup car, and you have a monstrously powerful 500 hp beast. Too powerful? Perhaps. Fun? You bet your sweet tush! Porsche’s GT3 RS is the answer to all the complainers who whine about the death of analog driving. While it still retains systems like Porsche’s insanely advanced dual-clutch seven-speed PDK transmission, it refuses to play backseat driver to your shenanigans. Want to slide the whole rear end through a hairpin? Be its guest — if you can make it all the way through. This “make you smoke every cigarette in the pack” approach to punishment can lead to some gleeful moments but also some downright terrifying ones. The fact that the steering wheel unabashedly transmits every bit of road feedback only adds to the rodeo-like feeling. But when you master it, thar be bliss in them turns. A hyper rigid frame and all that dieting pair sublimely with the smooth-locking rear differential to make the vehicle an extension of your body rather than an insulator against your poorest decisions. Snap too hard off the brakes on an exit, for instance, and the nose lurches upwards, diminishing your control and grip until you guide it back down. In the end, the GT3 RS is the most car you can have on the track that can legally sport a license plate on its rump. Take care of the beast, and it will take care of you — but don’t think you can take your eyes off it for a second.

Compare performance of Porsche 911 GT3 RS (991), Porsche 911 GT2 RS (997) and Porsche 911 Turbo S (991). Updated September 2023. Power is important, but one also has to consider the way it’s applied. This is a point proven time and again on the drag strip, where all-wheel drive vehicles perform exceedingly well. The latest proof of this comes from Porsche and CarWow, who decided to pit a 992-generation 911 Turbo S and 911 GT3 against a 991-generation 911 GT2 RS. The 911 GT2 RS, despite being the oldest car of the trio, makes the most power. Its twin-turbocharged flat-six pumps out 690 hp (700 PS/515 kW) and 553 lb-ft (750 Nm) of torque, which is without a doubt impressive, but all of its goes to the rear wheels. Read Also: Porsche 911 Turbo S 20th Anniversary Edition Celebrates Two Decades Of The Brand In China The 911 GT3 also powers its rear wheels exclusively but its naturally aspirated engine makes “just” 503 hp (510 PS/375 kW) and 347 lb-ft (470 Nm) of torque. That actually makes it the least powerful of the trio. The 911 Turbo S, ostensibly the least track-focused of the three, gets AWD and a twin-turbocharged engine that churns out 641 hp (650 PS/478 kW) and 590 lb-ft (800 Nm) of torque. That makes it the second most powerful car lining up for this race but it’s also the only one that powers all four wheels. The results speak for themselves as the more powerful 911 GT2 RS struggles to put its power down off the line regardless of whether its driver is using launch control, stability control and launch control, or is simply relying on his right foot. Although it finishes each drag race closing in on the 911 Turbo S, it never manages to catch it. And that’s the advantage of all-wheel-drive. Even against another car that was made by the same manufacturer and features a more powerful engine, more grip means more speed.

We’ve been blown away by the pace of the new Porsche 911 Turbo S, but how does it compare to its drop-top Cabriolet cousin? Oh, and we’ve chucked in a stripped-out GT3 wildcard for good measure
 Tap the video to watch the race. There’s no denying that the new Porsche 911 Turbo S is carwow’s king of drag racing – watch it demolish a Ferrari 812 Superfast and Lamborghini Aventador SVJ if you don’t believe us. But, can you have even more fun with your top off? To find out, we’re pitting the new Turbo S against the Turbo S Cabriolet. These cars are almost identical on paper – both have twin-turbo flat-six engines pumping out 650hp and 800Nm of torque. But, the 1,710kg Cabriolet tips the scales at 70kg more than the coupe. It can’t match the hard-top’s slippery aerodynamic shape with its roof folded down, either, which could hold it back at high speeds. As an added bonus, we’ve thrown in a Porsche 911 GT3 for good measure. This hard-core track-day toy is a model, meaning it’s one generation older than the two Turbo cars, but it weighs in at just 1,430kg – that’s 210kg less than the new Turbo S Coupe. Sounds pretty promising so far, but the GT3 chalks up ‘only’ 500hp – 150hp less than the new Turbo S – and has to make do with rear- instead of four-wheel drive. The instant throttle response from its naturally aspirated engine could mean it has the edge in the rolling race, though. So, think you’ve decided which rear-engined racer will win our latest drag race? Watch the video to see if you’re right.
