        Watching a car do a GPS run is one thing compared to actually seeing that performance measured against a benchmark. In this case the benchmark is the Ferrari 812 Superfast and Ferrari definitely is not joking that the 812 is fast.


        Despite the race being from a roll which favors the Ferrari GAD Motors' GLC63 crushes it. Keep in mind this is a 4500 pound all wheel drive SUV we are talking about pulling away with ease from a brand new 789 horsepower V12 powered Ferrari flagship.

        No reason to doubt the 9-second performance as this GLC63 is incredible and it is fully built including the motor and transmission.

          Same engine w C63 but blessed by e63 S trans and 4matic --> magic happens.

          It would be interested to see a tuned Macan Turbo and this.

          I haven't seen anyone take a Macan Turbo passed a tune and that is only good for mid 11's. It wouldn't even be a race.

          There isn't a Macan Turbo within 10 miles per hour of this car.

          I think it's more like 20. AMS only ran 115mph'ish in their full bolton macan turbo.

          You're probably right. The spread is huge.

          You r right. I must have been thinking abt Cayenne Turbo S but then thats not the same price point anymore.

          Even so no Cayenne Turbo is near this.

          @Sticky I've looked into this result deeper...It includes rebuilt motor, transmission, ported heads, intercooler and turbos upgrades. Basically it's not just turbos+tuning. No wonder it does 9s!!! It's on the other forum.

          Um why would I care about some 'other' forum when you have that info posted in the article:

          Who said it was just turbos and tuning?

          You're right. I referenced the wrong article. This is the one where you questioned.

          https://www.benzboost.com/content.ph...138-7-1-4-mile

          What is done to it? GAD Motors has not said. You can safely assume an M177 turbo upgrade and some aggressive tuning.
