Porsche 911 GT2 996

The Porsche 911 GT2 996 reaches 60 mph in 3.60 s (100 km/h in 3.75 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 11.83 s, tripping the lights at 121.3 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 1.87 s and the eighth mile in 7.68 s, reaching 100 mph in 8.55 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the 911 GT2 996

The 2000 Porsche 911 GT2 996 is a rear-drive turbocharged car of 1,430 kg with 456 bhp, which works out at 319 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 319 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 1.87 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 715th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest five per cent, and the 98th quickest of the 334 Porsches here. Its 121.3 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 9 of 11 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Porsche 911 GT2 996 0-60 time?
The Porsche 911 GT2 996 reaches 60 mph in 3.60 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 715th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Porsche 911 GT2 996 quarter mile time?
11.83 s at 121.3 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 7.68 s and clears the first 60 ft in 1.87 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Porsche 911 GT2 996 have?
456 bhp and 1,430 kg, which is 319 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, turbocharged, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 320 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Porsche 911 GT2 996?
Closest here on pace: Ruf 997 R Kompressor (3.64 s), Porsche 911 GT3 RS 997 facelift (3.55 s), Lamborghini Diablo VT Roadster (3.61 s). Each one can be raced against the Porsche 911 GT2 996 in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Porsche 911 GT2 996 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 9 of its 11 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
