Out brakes the GT 500 in the video.

Does not deliver on the click bait title, though. No Porsche testing. GT350 number is from a previous testing, not done on this video (so not a valid comparison).

Car and Driver reports that the PP DH stops quicker than not just all American cars, but every car they've ever tested!

A little O/T but here is an interesting brake pad comparison. The guy is long winded and boring but the results sort of surprised me. Not sure if it's AI BS or not, but I appreciated the scientific behind the scenes composition stuff. Anyway, grain of salt applies..

I've used Bosch Blue on my Fusion Sport. Pretty impressive pads. Zero fade.

Autocar in the UK have recorded 42.3m from 70mph to 0mph for the DH on their test track

Not many cars better than that other than true exotica such as Ferrari 488 and Porsche 918 Spyder (37.8m best recorded to date)
