Porsche 911 did it again! The morortrend best driver's car of 2013

Thank you guys for uploading an amazing video! I truly enjoy watching it.
Congrats to all 991(991) owners, our car is the best driver's car of 2013 & 2013.
Some say that they should not bring another 911 to the next year's competition because they will win it again, probably GT3 ?

Let's make Porsche 991 a triple champion.. go go!

Why not? It won in 2012, with a slightly faster lap time.

How in the world does a viper run a 1.36 in there hands at LS. Then a SLS Black run 1.35.

My gen three is 10 seconds a lap faster there with nothing but Aero and tires and down almost 100hp.

991 looks good though, very smooth.

Wrong. 4S was faster. They even say it in the interview.

Yeah...it's not just for "more grip in the snow" and "less fun than C2/C2S" as most say

I think it was in the context of the comparo of the other 11 cars. I dont expect my M6 to perform or drive or even sound like my C4S. It is the faster car 60-130 and up top with more hp but it clearly for me serves a different purpose. The M6 is heavy pig but I really like the 4.4 S63tu engine; the throttle response is quite incredible and the power and tq is impressive. Yes its a great change from the past M cars I have had (E46 M3, E39 M5, E63 M6, E92 M3) but its what it should be for me; a GT cruiser and freeway crusher that looks good.

Im honored that 3 of my cars (iterations) are in the test (although my R8 is a V10 2012). I think my Black Series was 2nd place last year (correct if wrong) and thats why I had to try the 991. The 991 has not dissappointed in the least- its only become better to me in my short 2 months of ownership. So congrats to the amazing engineers at Porsche!!!

The other cars haven't even seen a fraction of the development money that has been spent on the 911. The GT3 will easily take next years competition.
