2018 porsche 911
2018 Porsche 911 GT3: One of Porsche’s finest: The new Porsche 911 GT3 is better than you, and it’ll let you know when it gets bored by becoming a machine made of pure anger. But it won’t bite unless you’re a colossal moron. Some things in life simply aren’t fair. I’m short, started balding before I hit 30 and don’t get on well with cheese. Those things aren’t fair. Nor is the fact that I’ll likely not get a 991.2 Porsche 911 GT3 of my own, because it is simply brilliant. It’s not without flaws, sure, but there’s no Photoshop in the real world and nothing should be perfect anyway. Porsche’s GT cars are always a bit special. From their genesis, the 2.7 liter RS of the 1970’s, to the electrifying 991.1 GT3 RS and the unjustly brilliant Cayman GT4, they’re uncompromising speed machines designed to get around circuits faster than the other guy with as little fuss as possible. The latest iteration of 911 GT3 is of the same ilk, which means it’s a 911 plus. It’s the car from fifty years ago with fewer toys and more grunt. The new GT3 gets a 4.0-liter H6 engine with 500 horsepower and 339 pound-feet of torque. There are no turbochargers to boost its torque (or blunt its noise), no superchargers to make it whine. It is what it is, and what it is… is a racecar engine. Sort of. Porsche claims the GT3’s motor is very, very, very similar to the one found in its racing cars. Having experienced its wail, I’m not going to accuse Porsche of lying. On startup it sounds pretty rough, but so do most motors. But, unlike most motors, once you lean on it, it howls the song of its people. Its people, incidentally, like singing loudly. There’s not as much sound deadening in the GT3 as a regular 911, and there aren’t any rear seats either, so all the noise from its rear mounted engine finds it way into the car. That noise, by the way, doesn’t stop until around 9000 rpm, when it changes gear and repeats a verse. Naturally aspirated cars are a dying breed, but the GT3 makes a compelling case for this allegedly outdated way of doing things. The new turbocharged 911s sound like they’re shouting into a pillow. This sounds like it shouted its way through a plate glass window. Power delivery is instant, and the throttle response is sharp and easy to control. While the motor does like to spin up super quick after 4,000 rpm, it’s not quite as urgent before that, but still fast enough to catch you off guard. You can easily drive it on the throttle in the corners because it’s so delightfully adjustable.
2018 Audi RS5
2018 Audi RS5: Two Turbos, Much Power, Available Hatchback: What It Is: Audi’s monster version of the new A5 coupe. It’s powered by a furious twin-turbocharged V-6, fitted with a rear-biased all-wheel-drive system, and comes wearing a wide body that evokes, for some of us, the original Sport Quattro rally cars. For the first time, there will be a four-door RS5 Sportback; the RS5 cabriolet is gone. Europe gets an RS4 Avant with the same powertrain, but due to the U.S. market’s aversion to wagons, don’t expect it to appear on these shores. Why It Matters: The Audi brand has been suffering from two things: safe, evolutionary styling and the diesel scandal that engulfed the entire Volkswagen Group. It needs nothing more than sexy new product, and the RS5 should prove that the brand hasn’t lost its touch. Platform: The RS5 is based on the modular, longitudinal-engine MLB Evo platform, shared with the A4, the Q5/Q7, the next-gen A6/A7/A8, and a number of VW Group models such as the China-market VW Phideon sedan. Powertrain: A 444-hp version of the twin-turbo 2.9-liter V-6 that also powers the Porsche Panamera 4S. Peak torque is rated at 443 pound-feet, and the output routes to all four wheels through a ZF-supplied eight-speed automatic.Competition: BMW M4, Cadillac ATS-V coupe, Lexus RC F, Mercedes-AMG C63. What Might Go Wrong: The RS5’s exterior design might fail to push Audi’s design language forward. Estimated Arrival and Price: Late this year as a 2018 model with a starting price just over $70K; the Sportback will come a half-year later.
