Porsche is famously conservative with its 0-62mph sprint times, so on the launch of the new Porsche 911 Turbo S we decided to find out for ourselves just how fast the car is in real world conditions – with the help of a stop watch and the mighty McLaren MP4-12C supercar to add some perspective. Can it eclipse Porsche’s claim of 3.1sec from 0-62mph?
