In the very same article sport auto mentioned, that Porsche is unwilling to provide Taycan Turbo S hybrid test cars for comparison with the GT63S.
Now you do the math! Porsche knows, that their top Taycan stays no chance against a GT63S. Now you say, that the Taycan is faster than the M8GC, which is almost on par with the GT63S? To me, this does not add up. Or are you simply talking about some straight line acceleration numbers?
Just check the track battle between M8 Gran Coupe and Taycan Turbo S.
The posted times are very close, still BMW is not the fastest.
M5 CS might have Cup2 tyres as an option so they will eliminate the tyre disadvantage.
