Brabus Bullit Vs. 997 GT3 (SharkWerks)

GT3's are not super quick straight line cars, they are built for the twisties where they basically R8p3 everyone.
Nics car, whatever it is?
When I had my 996 I got spanked by a E55 uptop above 120.

i am sure of it GT3's are track cars and if we where at a track it would have been a different ending i didnt ask for the race the GT3 did he wanted to know how his car would perform anyway it was fun in all cases and the 997 is a much better performer than the 996 plus its a Shark Werk tuned car so i dont know what he got there he didnt tell but if he can run an SLR then i am sure he has a stroker kit done or something

Maybe if its modded but stock for stock I seriously doubt it can take on the BB.

I am a bigger fan to the GT2 but know in stock form it will look silly against the BB...as you see even a modded GT3 can't take him out.

GT2 is on a totally different level than GT3 though. Even modded, GT3 would have a hard time making over 440hp if it stays NA. GT2, on the other hand, has 530hp stock and close to 600hp with ecu tune alone (not to mention much more torque and broader powerband). It wouldn't be too hard to get GT2 to 700hp.

Thats why I said maybe if modded...I know a GT2 is a whole other animal but stock GT2 for stock BB in a straightline it no competition.....modded well scenarios can easily change and I still would take a GT2 over the BB anyday.

But the one thing you are forgetting is that the Brabus Bullet is not a stock vehicle....the TT V12 is a souped up version of the SL65 Engine, so saying stock for stock really doesn't apply because the only stock car would be the GT2 because it is factory and can be bought from Porsche and the BB is actually Brabus and not factory Mercedes.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure Brabus is an auto manufacturer as well and their complete cars are sold and registered as Brabus, so it would actually be "stock". Kinda like complete Ruf cars are based on Porsches, but they are actually independent manufacturer and their cars are sold and registered as "Ruf".

This comparison is the BB which is supped up C63 which I already knew. BB is in stock form based to Brabus specs...warranty I presume comes from a joint venture thru MB and Brabus. We are talking a BB not the C63.
