Off the line, the 911 R hits 100 km/h in 3.78 s versus 4.17 s for the 911 Carrera S Cabriolet. At this point, the 911 R leads by 0.39 s and sits roughly 7 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 911 R is doing 166 km/h against 159 km/h for the 911 Carrera S Cabriolet. The gap is 0.43 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the 911 R crosses the line in 11.38 s versus 12.04 s. The 0.66 s gap represents roughly 36 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the 911 R continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 239 km/h versus 221 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 911 R finishes in 20.19 s versus 21.49 s, with a 1.29 s lead.
Electronically capped at 306 km/h, the 911 Carrera S Cabriolet 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 3.54 kg/hp) and transmission (Manual vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 5.91 seconds. The 0.39 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
