The start: 0 to 100 km/h

Off the line, the Roma hits 100 km/h in 3.43 s versus 4.08 s for the 911 GT3. At this point, the Roma leads by 0.65 s and sits roughly 3 m ahead.

From 100 km/h to 400 metres

At 200 metres, the Roma is doing 182 km/h against 158 km/h for the 911 GT3. The gap is 0.66 s. The gap remains stable from the start.

At 400 metres standing start, the Roma crosses the line in 10.68 s versus 11.85 s. The 1.18 s gap represents roughly 63 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.

Beyond 400 metres: top speed comes into play

Past 400 metres, the Roma continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 256 km/h versus 225 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Roma finishes in 18.88 s versus 21.23 s, with a 2.36 s lead.

What the numbers don’t tell you

With two combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (2.37 kg/hp vs 3.16 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Manual).

In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 5.61 seconds. The 0.65 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
