I was talking i guess on more of a intangible level (not always logical). Ferrari just seems to have more of that "it" quality that porsche is lacking in so I personally have never really bothered comparing them. I think the ideal comparison for porsche is corvette/viper and I think the ideal comparison for ferrari is lamborghini. but like i said, i cant really back these feelings up in any way, but its hard deny that ferrari gets more "oohs and ahhs"
a great example of these intangible feelings is in a few years im going to buy a new car and i am having trouble deciding between a c6 z06 and a esprit s4s. i think we all agree that the vette is by far the better car, its faster both in a straight line and around a track, its cheaper to maintain, its more reliable, its more comfortable, ect... YET, for some reason im really leaning more toward a lotus because for some reason the lotus just calls to me more, it elicits more lustful (for lack of a better word) feelings from me than the corvette does. it defies logic, but if i bought one tommorow, I'd buy an s4s. cant describe it, cant back it up, but thats the way it is.
