Default What kind of numbers does a mid 90's 993 P car put down?

I came up behind one today on the highway. Guy intentionally slowed down to about 60 to pull me in close..and then down shifted and stomped it.....I suppose in an attempt to leave me in his dust. No dice though...I knew what he was trying to do..I also dropped a gear and I was able to stick on him through high 90's when we shut down due to traffic. He then proceeded to drive like a total ***....actually split a 2 lane highway between cars to get away from me. Bottomline, I think he was pretty surprised...perhaps he thought I was driving an A4. Anyway..just wondering how fast that P car is. It was debadged so I assume it was a straight 911...maybe a 911S...definitely not a turbo.

Default dunno, seem to be respectable numbers (although I walked one from a stop).

Guy looked like he was lost in the '80's with long hair and sweat shirt w/ cutoff sleeves. He kept taking off like a bat outta hell from each light. I got next to him and did a mild launch as I wasn't sure he was game but he stayed in it. We were about even through 1st and then it was over when I hit 2nd. I think he dropped his Quiet Riot tape and was busy looking for it cause he didn't want to play anymore.

Default my old man has a 1997 Turbo S. that does 0-60 in 3.7 secs

obviously the non-turbo would be at least 1 sec slower in the 0-60

Re: a 95-98 993 non turbo p car should be about 0-60 in 5.2-5.5 secs

I believe he is about right...Autoweek got just under 4 when they did the test drive.

3.7 is accurate. Perhaps you should pick up the crack pipe.
