Is the 2022 Porsche 911 GTS a BETTER performance car than a C8 Corvette?

The NEW 911 GTS is here and Porsche is continuing with its legacy. On the outside of the GTS you will find 911 Turbo S wheels, Turbo brakes, unique front fascia, rear wing and sport exhaust. On the inside is the standard sport chrono pkg, leather seats, and GT3 steering wheel. Under the rear engine cover is a 3.0L twin-turbo flat-6 that produces 473HP & is mated to a 7-speed manual gear box. Is the 2022 Porsche 911 GTS a BETTER performance car than a C8 Corvette?

991.2 took every corner at ludicrous speeds, the z06 did do 190+ on 91 octane in 1/2 mile race but where can you do that only twice a year at an airport event. I say this for AWD 911, I'm sure the RWD 911s will run into same issue as z06 with to much HP too. 991.2/992 might be an investment since its last of pure ICE before they get more electrified.

With every generation of the 911 Porsche has improved the vehicle dynamics. One of my friends owned early generation of the 911 Turbo that had the dreaded power oversteer if not careful when the power from the turbo hit. The rear engine layout should not handle this good but Porsche engineers make it happen. Of course with every generation one needs a fatter wallet that makes Porsche a wealthy man's toy since many owners have more than one car. Lovely car to drive! Of course Joe with your previous racing career make driving this car fast look effortless!

You’re wrong that the GTS is just a model with more standard options than the Carrera S. There are helper springs in the rear suspension, centerlock wheels from the Turbo S, and larger brakes from the Turbo, none of which can be optioned on the Carrera D. Also, you have the ability to option the carbon racing bucket seats, which can’t be optioned on a lesser Carrera model (except for the T).

Very few, if any, production performance cars have the advantage of Porsche’s half century of refinement. I’ve driven Porsche’s most of my life so I have a clue what the company regards as ‘expected’ for their production cars. Perfection is subjective but they really do accomplish it. I’ve driven a few different vintages of 911 and each of them had jawdropping performance. I can only imagine this one’s is similar.

[@scubasteve2976]

If you're going for "understated" ultimate performance in a daily driver, nobody beats Porsche. It can do everything (commute, track, spirited driving, groceries, etc) with no drama. C8 will get all the attention and put most supercars to shame, but I think I'd take the GTS for the do-everything extremely well factor plus the backseats for kids.

[@del1000005]

The question was which gets "better performance", and the Porsche does hands down. Cost/benefit analysis is subjective. Performance on all levels is far more objective. Yes, you pay for Porsche's performance, but having owned both, the 911 outperforms the Corvette on almost every level. Yeah, you pay for it. Yeah, that price is not worth it for everybody. However, to me, it's a no brainer on pure performance.

And also consider that that is a higher level model versus a base Corvette. Also there are only a few tenths difference between the 9/11 and the Carrera S in actual tests, so it would certainly be close to the Vette, I believe they just nicked it in the last race in the Vette. And Porsches launch control is definitely better than the C8, I will give them that, so that definitely helped. Z06 numbers are already out. All three of the major American magazines have tested it and it’s a screamer, 0-60 times in the mid 2 sec range, 1/4 miles in the 10.5 range.

For the cost of that 911 GTS, I would go not just C8, but C8 Z06. I could even live without a manual if I had a Z06. The Z06 is my new favorite cost no object Supercar. Followed closely by the GT3 with manual.

[@Steven-re3id]

that only applies to the united states, in the rest of the world and where i live the base c8 costs $200k much more expensive than a 911 gts and even more expensive than a gt3 so the z06 would be even more expensive

[@wbwayne8887]

@@Steven-re3id That would definitely be a no brainer over there then. Hard to go wrong with any of them. Such amazing cars.

[@Bimmer_Bill]

Cost no object is a C8? 😂

[@wbwayne8887]

@@Bimmer_Bill The Z06, yes, at the moment and imo absolutely. It has everything I want in a supercar.

[@Bimmer_Bill]

@@wbwayne8887 fair enough, but it’s not the fastest or the prettiest sports car that’s for sure. I get buying one if you can’t spend north of $200k but cmon. Corvettes carry very little prestige too.

I would love to see some real numbers posted in quarter mile versus C8 corvette times..

[@ferrarriohh]

So I’ll make a comment that won’t get flagged, Few cars elicit that “I WANT” urge more than a Porsche. This 911 GTS (in siiiiillllverrrr) really does stand out. I too would love to wash this every day. It looks like Christmas Morning, thanks Joe. Going to get my Powerball, my Mega millions, and maybe pick up some Chinese takeout so I can rub the belly for good luck.

I’ve yet to see a 2022 992 GTS under $160K - and that’s before the “market correction” that is anywhere from $40-60k.

To save $ C8. For similar cost convertible C8Z06 all day. Price, crazy performance beating lambos and Ferraris already, features, exhaust note, and road presence, interior/exterior looks. Just more to get excited about for my money. To each their own I guess.

[@RaitisRides]

Thanks for sharing your input and perspective

Literally dream car. I really like the GTS.

You are so very right Tom!

[@mfmf100]

Nice review of a great car. This tops the C8 Stingray but I think most buyers would cross shop the Z06 which is closer. Still think I’d go for the GTS though. They should call it Goldilocks spec.

[@bman1668]

I’d take a Porsche over any Chevy lol 😂

[@jamess4535]

Z06 2-3 year wait and $50k ADM... that's McLaren, GT3 money. The ADM's ruined the value proposition of the Z06 and people are nuts to pay $200k for a Corvette.

[@jrodsrides8945]

I love that car, Joe 😎

[@thehigginsfamily7505]

Joe would you take this or the Turbo S? My thought is the Turbo is just too fast to fully enjoy. You've driven both..what are your thoughts?

[@Mark-rt6fy]

Take it to a track, that's where porsche truly belongs. I did with mine and I regret I didn't do it sooner

[@brian4544]

I have a 2015 Turbo S built by AIM Performance in NJ that makes 800whp and it is amazing as a daily driver. Even stock the acceleration and handling are crazy. A guy local to me picked up a 2017 GTS and he loves it. Tough call but for me there is no such thing as too much power as long as you respect it. I generally drive pretty normal, too many cars on the road it seems nowadays. Try to drive one of each and see how they feel to you. Nice part about the GTS is that it is also turbo and can be upgraded to over 600hp with some mods and retain its daily drivability. If you get one, definitely try to do a Racemotive event if you have one in your area and really use the car on a track, it's a blast.

[@HayabusaOrlando]

My Vette is a convertible. Some people need the top to come down. I need that on a beautiful day.
