The Ferdinand GT3 RS, also known as the slowest Porsche in the world, breaks emission records in the Fred Flintstone fashion because it has no motor. I bet this man has a ton of dates. I cracked up at 6:07.

It’s Unlikely That The World’s Slowest Porsche Would Look Like What You’d Expect
The Ferdinand GT3 RS is the slowest Porsche road car in the world, despite having the appearance of a beautiful, gilded 911 GT3 RS. Porsche’s 911 GT3 RS was recognized as a legendary sports car with lap records to its credit (via Porsche). However, a variation with the same appearance as a Porsche 911 GT3 RS debuted in 2010, however its performance was quite the contrary.
Hannes Langeder, an Austrian biker, is the creator of this deceptively slow 911 GT3 RS replica, according to TopGear. It’s one of the lightest GT3 RS builds to ever lap a test track, albeit travelling at a crawl. Given its zero-emission architecture and incredibly economical driving experience, Langeder’s Ferdinand GT3 RS has frequently been called the most environmentally friendly vehicle ever. In actuality, the car is delivered without an engine. How slowly can the Ferdinand GT3 RS actually travel, then?
Porsches sluggish?
The 2021 Porsche 911 Turbo S coupe sits at the top of the food chain this year—by two tenths of a second. Not only was it the fastest car we tested this year, but it was also the second-fastest vehicle ever.
When was the Porsche the fastest?
If the Porsche 993 GT2 coined the term “widowmaker,” the 996 GT2 worked to solidify it. When it was first released in 2001, it quickly overtook the 911 GT1 Strassenversion to become the quickest production Porsche 911 ever.
Why is the Porsche so quick?
Thoroughbred Italian supercars, as we all know, depreciate more quickly than anything else, but the German Porsche 911 is a completely other story. When compared to luxury vehicles, which can lose over 50% of their worth in three years, the Porsche 911 only loses 23.62 percent of its value in three years, according to Motor and Wheels. The 996-generation 911 Turbo, which sells for anywhere between $100,000 and $500,000 on the used car market, is a fantastic example to show this. If you plan to keep your 911 Turbo for the next 20 years, you are nearly guaranteed to make money on your car.
Specs for the 2022 Porsche 911 Turbo S:
What vehicle can rival a Porsche?
What could possibly outperform the Porsche 911 Turbo S in a drag race? The staff at carwow assembled a Lamborghini Aventador SVJ and a McLaren 720S to test their viability as rivals. Let’s find out which of these supercars rules the drag strip.
The Porsche 911 Turbo S may have understated looks, but it is a true supercar slayer underneath. A twin-turbo 3.8-liter flat-6 engine with 640 horsepower (477 kilowatts) and 590 lb-ft of torque provides the power. With Porsche’s 8-speed PDK dual-clutch automatic transmission, this turbocharged flat-6 generates blazingly quick shifts.
The all-wheel-drive system of the Porsche 911 Turbo S helps it transfer its power to the ground. Porsche states that the time from 0 to 60 mph, the quarter-mile time, and the top speed are all under 2.6 seconds. Can Lamborghini or McLaren’s rivals to the 911 Turbo S compete?
One of the final classic supercars is the Lamborghini Aventador SVJ. A mid-mounted, high-revving 6.5-liter V12 engine with naturally aspirated fuel produces 770 horsepower (574 kilowatts) and 531 lb-ft of torque. The power from this magnificent V12 engine is sent to all four wheels via Lamborghini’s all-wheel-drive system via a 7-speed single-clutch automatic manual transmission. The Lamborghini Aventador claims to reach 60 mph in 2.7 seconds, cover the quarter-mile in 10.5 seconds, and reach a top speed of 221 mph. These numbers make the Lamborghini Aventador SVJ the ideal rival for the Porsche 911 Turbo S.
The McLaren 720S, an all-wheel-drive supercar in a drag race, is our last vehicle. A twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 engine with 568 lb-ft of torque and 720 horsepower (537 kilowatts) powers the McLaren 720S. Power is delivered to the rear wheels by a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission coupled to a supercharged V8 engine from McLaren.
The 0 to 60 mph pace is listed at 2.7 seconds, matching the Lamborghini Aventador SVJ despite having rear-wheel drive. With a time of just 10.3 seconds, the McLaren 720S outperforms both the Porsche 911 Turbo S and the Lamborghini Aventador SVJ in the quarter-mile.
Which of these supercars, which are nearly identical, performs best on the drag strip? Let’s investigate.
Which is faster, McLaren or Porsche?
Comparing the McLaren 570GT to the Porsche 911 Turbo for 2021, the McLaren is faster and more potent. In comparison to the Porsche 911, the McLaren accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in under 3.2 seconds. The Porsche 911Turbo can go as fast as 191 mph, while the McLaren 570GT can reach a high speed of 204 mph.
Even though the Porsche 911’s design is undeniably appealing, its shape and proportions haven’t changed significantly since the 1960s, which is a very long period. Unquestionably, the McLaren 570GT is a superior option if you want a supercar that stands out. Its vertically swinging butterfly doors, which give it a distinctive appearance, serve as an example of this.
Porsche vs. Lamborghini: Which is quicker?
According to a recent article in Car & Driver, the Lamborghini Huracan can reach 193 mph while the Porsche 911 Turbo S can reach 205 mph on a restricted circuit.
Which Porsche has the most power?
The 918 Spyder, a plug-in hybrid that outperforms all previous Porsche models by a wide margin, holds the title for the most potent Porsche ever produced. The 918 Spyder has a combined output of 887 horsepower and a top speed of 214 kilometers per hour from its two engines. The concept model was initially unveiled in 2010, and production models, limited to 918 total units, were produced in 2013. A 4.6-liter V8 engine and two electric motors work together to propel the vehicle to astounding performance heights. Future for Porsche looks promising if hybrid technology becomes a fixture of the brand’s lineup.

The quickest vehicle in 2022?
Without a Bugatti of some kind, no internet list of the “fastest vehicles” is complete. Like the Veyron before it, the “standard” Chiron is a mind-blowing feat of engineering, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be improved.
To celebrate a modified Chiron becoming the first hypercar to reach 300 mph, the Chiron Super Sport 300+ is a special edition of the already pretty unique Chiron Super Sport. Although the peak speed of the production car is electronically limited to 273 mph, it is said that Bugatti will permit customers to add a roll cage and attempt their own high-speed runs on the company’s Ehra-Lessien test circuit.
The Super Sport 300+ receives an upgraded quad-turbo 8.0-litre W16 engine from the Chiron that produces 1600PS in addition to a larger, more aerodynamic body and significant weight-saving measures. 30 are being constructed, each costing PS3.1 million.
Does Porsche outperform BMW?
The reliability of the vehicles is where the two manufacturers’ divergent philosophies are most visibly felt. BMW is ranked eighth among the most dependable brands by J.D. Power for 2020. (4) Porsche! While BMW is fine, Porsche is superior. Furthermore, Porsche is able to project a more upscale image than BMW thanks to its superior reliability for extremely sporty automobiles.
Furthermore, the present battle between BMW and Porsche on Montreal’s South Shore is mostly focused on each brand’s SUVs. The 2020 Porsche Macan and the pair of BMW X3/X4 models are the protagonists squaring out in the premium compact SUV sector. Thanks to a 248-hp 2.0L turbocharged four-cylinder engine producing 273 lb-ft of torque, the Macan easily beats the X3 and X4 at the basic level in terms of performance. Only 258 lb-ft of the same power are present in the Bavarian counterpart (248 hp). In the initial trim level of the competition between the 2020 BMW X3 and the 2020 Porsche Macan, the Porsche prevails.
Next up are the races between the 2020 BMW X5 and 2020 Porsche Cayenne, as well as the 2020 BMW X6 and 2020 Porsche Cayenne Coupe. These deals are fairly comparable in this regard. In fact, the 2020 X5 and 2020 X6 each have access to the identical bodywork, whereas the Porsche Cayenne is available as a classic SUV and a coupe SUV. But the differences stop there. In reality, the 2020 Porsche Cayenne/2020 Cayenne Coupe duo definitely outperforms the vehicles from Munich when it comes to engines. Both Porsches are driven by a hybrid system that combines an electric motor and a turbocharged V8 to produce 670 horsepower and 664 lb-ft of torque in their most potent configuration, the Turbo S E-Hybrid model. BMW’s turbocharged V8’s 617 horsepower and 553 lb-ft of torque can’t match with these numbers.
The comparison between the 2020 BMW Z4 and 2020 Porsche 718 Boxster is still up for debate. Although both cars are rear-wheel-drive roadsters, there isn’t much more similarity on this issue. The 2020 Porsche 718 sports a mid-rear engine, whilst the 2020 Z4 has a traditional front-engine setup. This architectural distinction reveals a lot about the function of each vehicle. The Boxster is more focused on performance while the BMW offers a driving style designed for dynamic cruising. In fact, the engine’s position, which is identical to that of a Formula 1 car, delivers the best balance for the ideal performance on the track. With outputs ranging from 300 horsepower for the base model with a flat-four turbo (compared to 255 horsepower for the 2020 BMW Z4 sDrive30i), to 414 horsepower for the razor-sharp 2020 Porsche 718 Spyder, dedicated above all to the track with its incredible flat-six screaming through the laps, the Porsche also prevails in this round (382 hp for the 2020 BMW Z4 M40i).
