Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Porsche posts conservative 0 - 60 times relative to what the magazine testers publish. I assume these testers wind 'em up and let 'em go to get those numbers. It's not their clutch. I don't see the 996 in that perspective, but 0 - 60 seems to be a key benchmark.
It is interesting to see that GM advertises the C6 at 4.2 secs. & the 911 turbo at 4.2 yet a quick flip through some published test results got the C6 at 4.3 and the 911TT at 3.7. The C6 is truly a great piece of work for the dollar but GM advertising seems a little brash.
All performance figures will depend on many factors that don't remain constant from one test to another even on the same day, same track, and same car. It is thus hard to compare tests done by different manufacturers, magazines, etc.
readers of C&D magazine would always ask why their numbers were 'better' than R&T. C&D insisted R&T couldn't discern the gas from the brake peddal
...scribes like to rib each other this way. i'm far more interested in 0-100 & 0-150. so much is dependant on a good launch (traction, reaction times, etc) that the 0-60 numbers can vary greatly and really mean little at the end of the day. 0-100 or 150 times will separate a truly quick car from the also rans.
i have a feeling that porsche is if not the most, one of the most, conservative companies, concerning per. figures.
i have never seen test figures not matching at least, if not better than factory figures.
p.s. you should try alfa romeo figures and you will understand that no matter what road,tarmac driver is the condition. no matter climate conditions and cars condition, if you want to match a.r. factory figures you will have to test the car either downhill or even better in a free fall trial.....
