It utilizes its 3.8-liter boxer six-cylinder engine, which produces 560 horsepower, to make the 0-60 mile per hour dash in just 2.9 seconds. Keep that throttle pushed to the floor and, with enough room, you'll hit 198 mph. Those figures put the latest Turbo S ahead of the 997 GT2 in the power and performance department (the 997 GT2 RS still has the edge, however).

    You spend all day driving one of the finest road-course machines ever known: a modern Formula One car. At 750-plus horsepower, a shade over 1,400 pounds and capable of braking and turning north of 5 g, the F1 car simply pummels anything that's road-capable, including the vaunted Bugatti Veyron. So...
