So. We've got THE go to brand of super cars, Ferrari. And an "overlooked" brand named Porsche.
Ferrari's tend to cost 2 thirds more and have one third more HP, but the Porsche beats it on the quarter mile and on lap times.
The Ferrari looks a hell of a lot better both outside and inside. And has the better tech and specs but still, the Porsche wins the vast majority of real life tests.
What's happening here? What's your opinion c/o/cks? Ferrari is obviously good they don't need our approval. But is Porsche "better"?
Nearly 31. Was indoctrinated with Ferrari but now I do realise that real life data matter more than names
Elijah Butler
So now you will have to sell off your Ferrari collection
Henry Lee
Why.. btw? Is it the South Park font or that the dimensions match the car's model? I'm not trolling/baiting. Just have a new-found love for Porsches
Nicholas Scott
this thread makes my head hurt.

I think the Gt3 Rs is the same price as a 488. also i think the rs was made in fewer number so less of them running around, the 488 will only go down in value unlike the Rs Porsche. But the Ferrari is a more of a "hey look at me" kinda car, it's more space ship like.. the Porsche takes on a more classy appearance, so diffidently not as flashy.
Camden Harris
Yeah all none of them
Omg. Ferrari: better name, better specs, better looking, more expensive Porsche: Wins in real life tests nearly every time Discuss
Joshua Taylor
>better looking
Wrong you fucking retard.
Carson Morgan
a fucking camaro is just as fast as either of them these days. 99% of the reason people buy them is because of the badge and the way they look.
Luke Rogers
I think the Porsche looks more classy.. i don't like that fuck boy look the Ferrari gives.
Aaron Bell
No, it's less than half the price at 143k whilst the Ferrari starts at 301k. Also the Ferrari has 661hp as opposed to the Porsche's 500. But the Porsche beats in on the track. THAT'S what this thread is about
Luke Reyes
A "fucking camaro" doesn't steer. Not even sure it has a steering wheel. we're talking real cars here. Not high-speed trains.
Why should I care about two cars I'll never drive?
Ryan Miller
/this
Honestly, no one here can afford either of these cars.
Jose Murphy
The GT3 is. Those listings are 1k mileage used in Top Gear and JewTube shit with ALL the options. entry level is still half the price of the Ferrari. And you don't need the RS or anything else to beat the Ferrari
Hunter Barnes
Forgot pic
Nice dubs, also, do you really only talk about cars you can afford? No. No one fucking does
Matthew Campbell
Entry level is 175k bare bone. Also that Ferrari some time is going to be one of those cars anyone can afford down the road. it just keeps going down hill. Look at the Gallardo, that car is trash now. That Porsche gt3 is going to be worth 400k one day if not more.
Mason Hall
I stand corrected, that Porsche price is excluding taxes whilst the Ferrari is in Canadough
Julian Powell
The Gt3 RS... NOT the Gt3.. i'm taking about the Rs
Christopher Richardson
It sure will. The 488 has no production limit, just waiting time. The GT3 is amazing no doubt there
Samuel Turner
No one needs the RS
Gavin Garcia
>no one here 1/10 bait
William Scott
You know 911s are easily attainable right? You can get a 997 for $30k and drive it everyday, rain, shine, or snow
Jason Gomez
And thats why you own a bicycle, right?
Aiden Rodriguez
Nah too busy buying a house. 911 comes after
Jaxon Wilson
>he's not a NEET like me REEEEEEEEEEEEE
Justin Sanchez
Just buy whichever one you like, neither company makes an objectively bad car.
Logan Murphy
>neither company makes an objectively bad car Porsche makes the Cayenne, Macan and Panamera
Jayden Gutierrez
True. But why is Ferrari the "Einstein" of cars when Porsche does better with less?
I'll just leave this here
Nathaniel Barnes
Which are very good in their segment and make them all the money they need to keep building sports cars.
Hudson Carter
True. But this though
David Gutierrez
That's a really clever way to get fleet average emissions down. They just buy a bunch of iQs from Toyota, change up pretty much every single panel as well as the entire interior and sell it as their own car, which in turn allows them to keep building nothing but V8- and V12-powered works of art.
Christian Sullivan
>But why is Ferrari the "Einstein" of cars when Porsche does better with less? it's all about the branding fampai
they also attract some of the most cancerous drivers on the road, at this rate it's inevitable that Porsche drivers will eventually attain the same reputation as BMW/Merc drivers.
Jack Jenkins
That's sadly what the "luxury SUV" segment does. Same with every BMW X model, Mercedes SUV, Audi's entire Q lineup, basically every Range Rover...
Owen Moore
>it's all about the branding fampai That's my whole point (OP here)
>they also attract some of the most cancerous drivers on the road, at this rate it's inevitable that Porsche drivers will eventually attain the same reputation as BMW/Merc drivers.
I fear this. As a new Porsche fan, I see people don't understand/respect the car. But being objective, Ferrari's also are fucking Gucci man-purses to a lot of people.
Christian Fisher
you buy a ferrari for the experience and sound
you buy a porsche to dd and track
Wyatt Murphy
>dd and track
bruh
Cameron Parker
Fuck ferrari
Liam Watson
911 is the best selling sports car of all tyme
Also 570s is cheaper than a 911 turbo Britain is the king again
Brayden Long
>still, the Porsche wins the vast majority of real life tests.
That's bullshit OP and you know that. Please show us some evidence for your claims.
Matthew Harris
I'd probably rather have a 911 Turbo S than the 488 because it'd be a way more reliable daily driver
Blake Clark
>A "fucking camaro" doesn't steer. Not even sure it has a steering wheel Was he just pretending?
Carson Jackson
I don't care how fast the Porsche is. There's no fucking way in hell I'd pay that much for a 6 cylinder that sounds like a minivan. Plus you'll look like even more of a douche when yo inevitably snap oversteer into a wall.
Ayden Ramirez
>nearly 31 >uses lap times to determine if a car is good Aren't you a little old to be a bus rider?
Charles Foster
they are different kind of cars and they isn't really much to compare
with buying a ferrari, you're buying the experience., the involvment in "high society" and ferrari invites you to their silly rich people events etc. nothing too much regarding the car itself or any real sports driving. It's just a big circlejerk. If you buy enough ferraris from them overtime, and get your rich friends to buy ferraris, they reward you by picking you to offer you their newest special snowflake cars they don't sell to normal scrubs, and invite you to more special events.
with the porsche you're mostly buying a car. Everything is about the DRIVING EXPERIENCE and not the social status aspect like ferrari. With porsche you can have european delivery and fuck about with your car in europe, and they'll ship it to your home country afterwards, or you can go to the driver's experience every year and they'll ship your car to the track after you sign up and drop it off in the dealership.
TL;DR Ferrari's user experience focuses on the social status aspect of owning a luxury sportscars with events, dinners etc. Porsche focuses on actually driving and not circlejerking with other rich people. Unless it's a classic porsche.
Sebastian Taylor
I want to actually own my car and not have the brand send me a C&D for doing things to my possession
Adrian Wright
American cars have shit handling, period. That's why our cars are used at every fucking bracket of racing except for the one where you turn left for hours. That's for the limited capacity of ameriburger's intelligence and car handling.
Tyler Gutierrez
I don't know where you're getting your info. This site suggests that the 488 is faster across pretty much every measure, especially at the top end, than the GT3 RS. Of course, if I had to buy one, I'd still get the GT3 given the $75K price discrepancy.
Blowing out an absolutely rancid fart in a Ferrari feels a lot better than doing it in a Porsche. Dunno why. Maybe it feels more transgressive or something.
The 488 is a one trick pony (heh), 2 seater sports car that's (sadly) mostly used to show off or kept in a garage.
The 911 however is probably the only sports car out there that can be owned as an only car.
>not too wide, has normal ground clearance >no typical supercar issues like shitty visibility, tiny fuel tank or a shitty transmission that's awful at regular driving >usable rear seats or decent luggage space, roof rack for ski or bikes available >will not fall apart or ruin you with service costs if you put miles on it
And it comes in all kinds of flavours and with a ton of options to fit whatever you want to do with it. (I'd have a manual Carrera 2S with a ducktail pls) Driving dynamics are GOAT, and all it takes is a GTS to keep up with supercars in case that matters.
The only gripe I have is the 991's light power steering (It's not that bad though, just not perfect). Apparently they fixed it with the facelift, but I haven't driven that so far.
The Ferrari is probably a great piece of engineering (same as a GTR, an Aston Martin Vantage or a Mclaren whatever), but the 911 is a different, somewhat unique kind of sportscar for a different purpose and not really comparable imho.
Robert Ramirez
BS.

You fag can't afford a Ferrari that's all. Porsxhe is the Golf of sportscars.

We've already established muritard cars do not handle anything else than straight, dispite losing even 1/4 mile race, and turning left a lot during those laughing stock """""racing events""""" called Nascar. Get over it. No. Not happening. Murifags do not build good cars. Nor do they get music and food. No. It;s shit. Fuck off of this Japanese board.

And all of them faster than a Beetle with two extra cylinders and a big wing on the back, not to mention half the price.
Feel free to sperg out about muh GT-R though.
Evan Garcia
>do you really only talk about cars you can afford? No. No one fucking does this is kind of the problem with benchracing busriders on Veeky Forums though. >lmao this car is so shit my civic with a few simple mods can beat it
you should at least ride in a car a few times to get an actual feel of it before shitting all over it. I'm sure most of you would otherwise like many cars that you think are complete shit, be it because of the price, lack of power (which apparently means anything less than 1000hp), lack of torque, lap times and so on.
Chase Johnson
911 is 423 more than 488, so how is this even a question?
Cooper James
uhhh hes not wrong? porsche is literally GOAT in daily driving dynamics while retaining world class tracking ability

Who's buying a $175-200K sports car and worrying about service costs? Nobody cares about how much it costs to maintain their 911 or 488.
Henry Flores
>worrying about service costs It's not really worrying, it's more annoying. Mainly because you know there's no way the services rendered are worth what's being charged. Having the cash to buy a six figure car doesn't make me believe the floor mats are worth $250 apiece, or that it really costs $150 to change the oil.
Elijah Murphy

Kevin Barnes
Well, think about it a little, Ferrari makes cars that are supposed to be rediculous. They make cars that look bold, almost obnoxious, kind of like Lamborghini does. Porsche has always been a company about functionality, and even though the cars they release might look lackluster next to a Ferrari, they beat them around the track because they're made to be more sensible.
Benjamin Sullivan
>1500 more than the s2000

Grayson Torres
This...I've built kitchens for rich people, contract stated 40% deposit, 40% on delivery, 10% 30 day holdback. I'd show up with the boxes, looking for my 2nd 40%...them asking if I can hold on yntil the end of the month when whatever interest something was payed... Nothing has moved off my trailer yet, so I just lifted and secured the ramp, and with them asking what I was doing, I got back into my truck and drove off... I'd phone them back later and remind them that as per contract, I get my 2nd 40%...or no delivery... Funny how they always seem to scrape it together for the next day... Don't even ask about the 30 day hold back...that shit can go months...
