Nice article, thanks for posting.

Was it just me, or while reading it did you find you were reading to yourself in an English accent??

Nice article. The author went into this with an obvious bias to Ferrari, but had to give the kudos to Porsche. I like that

Here's another Porsche vs. Ferrari comparison:

Great articles!!

Ver-r-ry NICE article <img border="0" alt="[thumbsup]" title="" src="graemlins/bigok.gif" /> When I get home I am going to take another look at the car I've owned for three years It never ceases to amaze me.

just walking back from lunch in LoDo I walked right past a red 308 that was parked.

Who cares what the mags say, I'd take that car over any 951 any day.

It just looks so damn cool. It looked so low that I think I could have jumped over it and I'm a 5'9 white guy.

Of course, these are the old bread & butter models that Ferrari made to generate income. How about something comparing the 951/951S vs. more exotic Ferraries like the Testarossa or 288GTO??? F40???

I think a chipped 951S can give the Testarosas and 288GTO a run for their money. Might need more extensive upgrades to beat up on the F40 though...

There was an article I only glanced through a couple months ago comparing the 959 and 288...they were surprisingly close performance-wise.

Both those "other" cars in the article are a bit presumptuous in my opinion, smacks of mid-life crisis and makes me think I need to shop for some gold chains or head up a metal band.

Besides that, try to find an immaculate, maintenanced 328 for under $10K.
