    I need to see the 0-200 km/h repeated a few times before I believe it.

    We have seen some strange reportings from this mag before.

    exactly...4ruote is the only and first italian(maybe world) magazine that test every new ferrari and achieve results never repeated by other magazines...but you have to know also that ferrari use a different approach because they not only send the car but also engineers,mechanics and factory-driver to show how to obtain the best from the car...

    for 997 gt2 "auto" magazine had to go to Porsche Italy to take the car...

    Italia : 9,7s

    997 Turbo PDK - usually 11,0s (best 10,4s)

    R8 V10 - usually 12,5s (best 11,8s)

    Usually with cars claiming such a high specific output, it's unusual for them to be underrated, but with this one, I'm thinking it might be. 0-200kph (124mph) in 9.69s and 0-250kph (155mph) in 16.0s suggests a power-to-weight ratio in excess of 400hp/1000kg. In a nutshell, I think this car has over 600hp, even allowing for PDK. The car is Carrera-GT-fast in a straightline.

    402 m - 11,5 s
    1000 m - 20,4 s

    Evo compare it to the GT3 RS:

    It's interesting that at 7:20 Harris predicts low 7s/high 6s for 0-100mph. The consensus seems to be that this thing goes like a rocket.
