The new Porsche Carrera GTS is no doubt a car for serious racers, so what does a five-time American Le Mans Series champion think of it?

During the Carrera GTS' press launch down in Palm Springs, Florida, Joerg Bergmeister was asked to hop into the sports car and take it for a little test driving fun. Not only does the champion tell us what he thinks about the car, he even goes as far as comparing it to his very own 911 Carrera S and Flying Lizard 911 GT3 RSR car.

The new Carerra->ke574 GTS is powered by a 3.8-liter flat engine delivering 408 HP and 420 NM of torque. The sprint from 0 to 60 mph is made in 4.2 seconds for a GTS Coupe with PDK and a Sport Chrono Package Plus in Sport Plus mode, and the top speed goes up to 190 mph.

All you have to do is sit back, relax, and take the time to learn a little from a professional.
