actually I beat one before porche carrera 1989 model wide body... TWICE..I roll up next to him at a light and say this "nice car" then i rev on him.... it was a 40 yr old man with his wife... He definatley was a shitty driver... or he was just plain slow but i dont think that was the case... either way you look at it I beat him two consecutive times beat him off the line and all the way to 60... I wasnt going to go any faster than that on surface streets... lol he would smoke me on the freeway... i think haha

I blew the doors off of a Porsche Boxster, does that count?
Are they even Porsches? Just curious....

was it the weaker older boxster with the 2.5 liters with 201hp
or the 2.7 with 217 hp
or was it the S with the 3.2 with 250hp

or was it the new more powerful ones

Not sure which model / engine Boxster, but no "S"....trust me, I looked to be sure.
It basically came down to me wanting to know how I stacked up against the same Porsche that would occasionally give me problems in my previous 330i.
I know better than to tangle with a Boxster "S".
But it was nice to pull WELL ahead of it and I'll take the kill.

if he has 247hp at the fly and you have what 190? and your car weighs more than his. why do you ask the question? clearly equal drivers he will beat you. its simple facts. with that low of HP for both cars Quattro will not be a factor. i doubt his traction will be a problem.

yea but this is a slower porsche which only has 247hp and it weighs right around 3k lbs.i currently have 190hp and supposedly i could get it up to 295 with a supercharger?
However there is very little if any tire spin on my fathers car due to wide rear tires..... so you think even with almost we'll say 30 horses he'd still beat me? There are no mods on the porsche
Well hes 247 whp, the g2 kit is rated 295 Crank hp, honestly from the dyno's I've seen you would be very lucky to break 230whp on the g2, and he still has the weight advantage

dont forget your car is heavier and you will probably need a new clutch because when you try to launch and your tranny blows up...YOU WILL LOSE.

no the porsche has 247 hp idk what the whp, and i have 190 hp now but what i was saying is that if i got a supercharger on my audi thus making it have 295hp and like 225-230whp then would i be able to smoke him at a 0-60 or 0-100 or something?
I know after about a 100 he would take off ridiculously because the previous owner had said he's gotten it up to 165 mph on a track
