Porsche 911 GT3 S/C First Drive: Does a Convertible GT3 Actually Make Sense?

We traveled to Germany to drive the all-new 2027 Porsche 911 GT3 S/C, the first convertible GT3, to find out if it delivers the same thrilling experience as the GT3 Touring. With a 9,000-rpm naturally aspirated flat-six, six-speed manual, and open-air driving, this might be one of Porsche's most exciting 911s yet.

The Mercedes-Benz S-Class Is the 2027 MotorTrend Car of the Year!

We got the numbers, and more! The 1,250-horsepower ZR1X has been through our independent instrumented testing, plus some damp track laps and a drift session. We even dusted the pavement this time. But how quick is it to 60 mph, through the quarter-mile, and around our figure eight course? Is X gon' deliver it to ya? Combining the 5.5-liter twin-turbo V-8 of the rear-drive ZR1 with an enhanced version of the front electric motor from the all-wheel drive E-Ray, the ZR1X promises the ultimate Corvette powertrain, with the Nurburgring lap time to prove it. Watch the video to see the results, because they're not as cut-and-dry as we expected.

Brabus, founded on the principal of offering performance upgrades for high-end Mercedes-Benz models, has undergone somewhat of a boom in terms of both scale and ambition. In recent years it's shifted from enthusiasts’ darling to polarizing purveyor of luxury rides, which some see as the 'finished article' and others deem to be a little much. We wanted to dig deeper on this fascinating, opinion-splitting company, so we headed to Bottrop, Germany, to tour the Brabus factory with CEO Constantin Buschmann, before getting to drive a 900 horsepower Brabus 911 Rocket R (formerly a 992 Porsche 911 Turbo S) and the insane, Brabus XLP 900 6X6 Superblack.
