The Nürburgring remains the ultimate test of man and machine. The new 911 Carrera S and racing driver Timo Kluck mastered this test with a very distinctive result: a lap time of 7:37,9 minutes. Enjoy one lap in the green hell.

I test drove this car at the dealership and was not impressed.....then I went to the Masters Porsche sport driving school and drove it back to back with the 997.2S and the Cayman R. It was soooo much better on the track then the other two. Test driving this car on the streets does not show its true abilities at all. Its not as thrilling or flashy as other cars for around 120k but it is an all around great DD IMO.

7:37 is an impressive number!! better than what Porsche published? wonder what kind of tires this car has... in some of the corners it gained an impressive speed which its hard to believe.....

That's the real key, right there. My `12 Carrera S (991) is my DD and it's so damned well behaved around town that I often forget I'm driving a near-supercar. But, when I get back out to the country, watch out, she'll haul some serious a$$.
