    Porsche 911 GT2 RS Grabs Nürburgring Record Back From AMG GT Black Series

    Porsche is no stranger to setting blistering lap times at the Nürburgring Nordschleife so it comes as no surprise that they have officially grabbed the lap record for the fastest road-legal production car with a 911 GT2 RS.

    6 minutes and 43 seconds was the time it took the GT2 RS to rip around the circuit but it was not your ordinary GT2 RS. It sported a set of aerodynamic, suspension, and brake updates from the experts at Manthey Racing. Before you cry foul at Porsche taking credit, the Manthey Performance Kit is actually available to European customers through Porsche’s Tequipment accessory lineup.

    This record lap smashes the time set by the Mercedes-AMG GT Black Series by just over 5 seconds.

    The Manthey Performance kit includes some aero tweaks which are rather noticeable. Front spoiler flaps, a carbon fibre underbody pan, front-wheel air guides, a new rear spoiler and diffuser, and rear-wheel aerodiscs contribute to a significant increase in downforce. Hiding under the skin is a Manthey-designed coilover suspension kit with three-position front and four-position rear dampers. Meanwhile, special brake pads for the Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake system reduce fade, while steel shrouds the brake lines improve feedback and control.

    The Tequipment kit is only available in Europe for now and is of course backed by a full Porsche warranty.

    • Looks like the new Mercedes-AMG S 63 E PERFORMANCE was spotted testing in South Africa 🇿🇦

That start-up sounds pretty damn promising!

This thing packs a whopping 791 hp (590 kW) and 1,430 Nm of torque.

    • We waited a fair bit for the Tiguan R to arrive but that means it has been given enough thought and executed with the sort of German precision that makes us happy to have waited.

As fast SUVs go it’s a cracker, and with a price tag starting from R1,014,900 it is actually decent value in the segment.

It’s fun, aggressive when you want it to be and remarkably civilised when you don’t. Cars like this rarely make sense, but the Tiguan R is one case where that argument starts to change one's mind.

We cannot wait to drive the matching Golf next week!

    • The very first SA-spec BMW M2 snapped at BMW HQ in Midrand.

Zandvoort Blue would not be our choice but the looks have certainly grown on us. What about all of you?

    • If you’re expecting a faster, angrier and more focused version of the original 86, you’re going to be happy with this car.

Toyota finally gave the 86 more power. It’s not take-your-breath-away power, but again, it’s not made to win drag races. If you want more power, get a Supra.

Sure it is a bit more pricey this time around but it is a no-regrets kind of car that you will enjoy just as much today as 10 years from now.

Long live the manual transmission, especially when it’s packaged within something as fun as the Toyota GR86.
