Well, it all depends what the car looked like. The brand-new Carrera GT "supercar" that recently came out is NOT available in a GT-S trim, so if that was the car that you saw, then that owner is full of *****. In any case, here are the only Porsche Carrera GTS's I could find info on, and their specs, and the specs of the new Carrera GT as well.

1963 Porsche 356B Carrera 2000 GS-GT:

Okay, why is the quarter mile times all that a supercar should be about? That Porsche would sooner sit in my garage than a viper.

Ive saw the same thing the other day, with the S over the name, so it definately is a production car.

It was the same body style of the new 911 carrera

I'll repeat it again, there is NO GTS or GT-S Porsche that is new. (If you can find information on the internet that shows otherwise then by all means please post it up, and prove me wrong, as I'd love to see/hear about this new "GT-S/GTS") There IS a new Carrera S. It's specs are as follows:

Price: $79,000
Engine: 3.8L Opposed 6
Aspiration: Natural
HP: 355 @ 6600 rpm
HP/Liter: 92.9
Torque: 295 Lb-Ft @ 4600 rpm
Weight: 3131 Lbs
HP/Weight: 8.82 Lbs per HP
0-60 MPH: 4.6 Seconds
Top Speed: 182 MPH

Yeah maybe thats what it was, did the one you saw have the tailpipes that were round and then like another half of one welded on the sides?
