Change your car with Carwow: The new entry-level Porsche 911 is here, and it’s about to go head-to-head with an almighty American muscle car! The question is, does the new Porsche 911 Carrera have what it takes to bring down the tuned Shelby GT 350 Let’s take a closer look at the stats. Starting with the Porsche, it’s powered by a 3-litre twin-turbo flat-six that produces 394hp and 450Nm of torque. This power is sent to the rear wheels only via an 8-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox, and the car tips the scales at 1, 520kg. As new, this 911 will set you back around 100, 000. Then we come to the Shelby. Under the bonnet, you’ll find a 5. 2-litre naturally-aspirated V8, which normally produces 526hp and 582Nm. However, in this instance, it’s been tuned, and it now puts down 600hp and 597Nm! Power is sent to the rear wheels via a 6-speed manual, and it weighs in at 1, 680kg. As new in 2019, this car would set you back around 50, 000. So the Shelby is well up on power, but it’s packing a manual transmission! Will that prove decisive There’s only one way to find out for sure LET’S RACE! Mat’s Porsche lease deal: Dodge Challenger Demon v 911 Turbo: Thanks to for helping to set up this race!

As an owner of a base 991. 2, I knew the 911 w/ a PDK would easily take a manual GT350. The engine weight over the rear wheels and the PDK digs in like you would not believe. Every M4, Camaro, Mustang, WRX, Corvette and Tesla (non-Plaid) are shocked when they challenge me at a light. That said, the Mustang is half the price. Put another GBP 50K into the Mustang and you will get a different result.

This vid is TRASH. manual vs auto. really & the guy in the mustang seems to have issues shifting. wonder if he knows that 350 redlines at 8400RPM. & a the 7: 49 mark seems like mustang slowed down. seems staged. run a course track & time it or get a real manual driver

Mustang enthusiast here, ive owed 3 different mustangs and gotta say the mustang will definitely not beat the Porsche lol Specially not the manual transmission mustang LMAOOOO come on at least get an automatic. Also Sam is full of shit LOL definitely downshifted
reply

Funny thing is that the percentage of GT350 (and similar trims) owners are drag racing 10x more often than base model 911 owners and many probably don't even know how capable they are. Many 911s are purchased for show and status.
reply

What does it matter if he was engine braking and shifting down during the brake test, if anything, it makes the test more even, as the Porsche would have been shifting down itself and engine braking on its own being PDK
reply

So what Sam is saying is impossible and he’s lying. If you have 3 pedals being activated with only 2legs, it’s not gonna happenhitting clutch, brake and actively revving up Nope. Nice try Sam.

Mustangs and Challengers will always lose, i don't care how much HP those things have. Crap engineering since the 60's. Sad actually. Ive seen every version of shelbys lose to mid tier Porsches and BMWs

This is proof positive that Europeans shouldn't be allowed anywhere near any performance cars. Everyone knows that Europeans don't know how to drive fast cars. Let alone American Muscle Cars.
reply

Something’s wrong with that mustang (aside from the Shit tires. Grey Market import Sounds like it’s missing. Porsche is great, But the mustang could’ve done much better than it did.
reply

It’s big noisy and powerful, BUT it’s NO good if you can’t put that power down! It would have been very different if the Stang’ was 4 wheel drive! Come on Henry get it done!
reply

I don't know who will win but I bet the Shelby is way more fun in a drag race. Now, on a track.
Edit: And it's a manual too you guys forgot the 18 warning for the video.

I always believe in a man, who potentially could beat me up in an MMA fight! How unfair was that race: The baby 911 against the wild beast of the Pony cars! For the Pony cars, that is!
reply

The issue with Porsche is the appalling build quality and complex solutions with tendency to break. In a few years it will be trash, while the Mustang will keep going.
reply

I can't think of anything less interesting than how fast these cars go in a straight line. Put them on road course and see how they compare instead of a silly drag race.
reply

I don't know how this turns out, so random he pics the fastest car as usual. I like watching videos from carwow but somehow. And the racing drivers who always lose sck!
reply

I wish they taught investing at school level - there is so much advantage to doing this. My biggest regret is not having more to put into XAI315K right now.
reply

7 seconds into the video introduction. Not even sure why they put these 2 cars against each other. Also not sure why Ford can’t design a launch control like BMW.
reply

Why do you guys keep insisting on paring manuals against the best dual clutch transmissions on earth, i didn’t even have to watch this to predict the outcome.
reply

Does that Mustang really has 600 hp! It looks SLOW, not only in stand still but even in rolling races. I was expecting way better from a 200 hp difference booo!
reply

It's impressive that Matt can keep a straight face at the beginning he said he didn't know what was going to happen. We all know whatever car Matt is in will win
