Can the Subaru BRZ tS keep up with the base Porsche 911?

With the GT3 out of commission, the BRZ tS needs a new target. In this episode, we bring you a budget Porsche to go up against our budget Poorsche! The 996 Porsche 911 Carrera will take the GT3’s place for a few episodes until the GT3 comes back. Being a “budget” Porsche itself should make for an interesting comparison to our BRZ tS.

We go through a bit of history on the 996 and take a drive in the canyons to compare it to the BRZ as we normally would, but we also throw in a bit of drag racing as well. In the name of science of course!
