A better comparison should have been "Ferrari 288 GTO and the Porsche 959". Both were built to similar rules (i.e. Group B).
My choice by the way is the Porsche 959.
We work to live, and to live is to drive a BMW 330i at speed.

F40 any day over 959

F40.
And its not just because I love Ferrari. The 959 was a revolutionary car in its time and in the late 80s I might've bought one over the F40, but 959 is pretty much what the 997 Turbo has become while there will never be another car quite like the F40.

959 for me, and yes I agree that 959 vs 288 GTO would have been a better comparison.

F40 for me.
I'm dropping out to create a company that starts with motorcycles, then cars, and forty years later signs a legendary Brazilian driver who has a public and expensive feud with his French teammate.

I don't know how anyone could listen to this and still want the 959 more.

F40 for me. It's more of a driver's car from what I hear.

F-40 everytime, plus ferrari's dont age in the same way that the rest of the automotive world does.

the 959 will only keep up with the f40 on a straight line, once they are on the race track the 959 becomes a volkswagen beatle and u dont have to believe me just research it!!!

WHich 959 ? I remember a car test in the 80s where they took a lightweight, no frills added F40 and put it up against a COMFORT version of the 959 and then proclaimed the F40 the better. Felt back then it was a clear editorial bias as they should have pitted the Sport 959 whci was the lighter and faster.
But even then, the 959 couldn't keep up with an F40, the 959 just wasn't geared enough to keep pushing hard beyond 140-150.
However, how many DAKAR did the F40 win ?
