Off the line, the 911 GT3 RS hits 100 km/h in 3.85 s versus 4.56 s for the 718 Cayman. At this point, the 911 GT3 RS leads by 0.71 s and sits roughly 8 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 911 GT3 RS is doing 164 km/h against 149 km/h for the 718 Cayman. The gap is 0.67 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the 911 GT3 RS crosses the line in 11.57 s versus 12.65 s. The 1.09 s gap represents roughly 54 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the 911 GT3 RS continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 232 km/h versus 206 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 911 GT3 RS finishes in 20.63 s versus 22.89 s, with a 2.25 s lead.
Electronically capped at 274 km/h, the 718 Cayman never reaches its natural aerodynamic ceiling in this duel. That’s not a physical limit of the motor — it’s a deliberate manufacturer decision, typically tied to standard-fit tyre ratings or model-range positioning.
With two combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (2.74 kg/hp vs 4.45 kg/hp) and transmission (Manual vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 6.70 seconds. The 0.71 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
