Off the line, the 911 Turbo S Cabriolet hits 100 km/h in 2.95 s versus 3.18 s for the Bmw M8 Competition Coupe. At this point, the 911 Turbo S Cabriolet leads by 0.23 s and sits roughly 4 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 911 Turbo S Cabriolet is doing 176 km/h against 169 km/h for the Bmw M8 Competition Coupe. The gap is 0.27 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the 911 Turbo S Cabriolet crosses the line in 10.56 s versus 11.04 s. The 0.48 s gap represents roughly 27 m of track — two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the 911 Turbo S Cabriolet continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 246 km/h versus 232 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 911 Turbo S Cabriolet finishes in 19.13 s versus 20.15 s, with a 1.02 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Bmw M8 Competition Coupe is capped at 250 (i.e. 155 mph — industry threshold) km/h, the 911 Turbo S Cabriolet at 330 (i.e. 205 mph — industry threshold) km/h. This isn’t a physical engine limit — it’s a manufacturer choice, usually for tyre safety or homologation reasons. Neither car reaches its true aerodynamic top speed.
With two combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (3.04 kg/hp vs 2.84 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 4.53 seconds. The 0.23 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Swap one of the two models to explore an equivalent duel in the same segment.
