  1. +NuclearGrizzly So I guess the motto didn't scare you. I assume as an engineer you feel brave enough to buy three 911's as long as you can fix all the problems yourself. If you get tired of that, sell all 3 and buy a real sports car, a Ferrari. The repairs will end and you only smile :)

  2. +Mister911 So you take practical over beauty and excitement? In a supercar? Btw, the boot of that 488 is bigger than 911T boot. And a harsh ride is not exactly what you want in a "practical" car.

  3. +scomberscombrus With a few options on your 911 turbo, you get much closer to Ferrari money than those 40K. And that harsh ride gets old very fast, specially as a daily. But I still wonder why would people pay so much for a sports car and then wonder if it's practical? Surly people buy such expensive high end sports cars for the thrill they offer and the way they handle, and in those areas the Ferrari is way ahead.

  4. +tigerinsofia In what aspects? Design? drivers car? Drama? Excitement? Agility? Special? Sorry but most people pay all that money to get a sports car that thrills them, not one that is "practical", or to use as a "daily". And something that is special and makes them feel special when driving it. Not a car that looks like any other of the 10-12 models that most can't see the difference between them. And a modern sports car that has such a harsh ride in 2016? Sure it can be used daily. For 2 days before your back gives up.

  5. +Ахмед Магомедов Yes, as your daily. 488 GTB as your special sports car to excite you.

  6. Narrowest of margin??? Steve, very few people buy an expensive high end sports car to have as their daily, specially one as uncomfortable as the Porsche. People don't buy this kind of sports car for their usability/practicality but for the thrill they offer. And in that department the Ferrari is way above the Porsche in every area, be it design, sound, drama, etc.

  7. +Kenny You Come one, park that 911 next to a 488 and the Porsche will simply be invisible. A Ferrari will always be a Ferrari, which means exciting, while a 911 will be a 911 among the 10-12 different 911 models. Even if the front of 488 would be ugly, which it's not, the whole of the car is simply gorgeous, specially in flesh.

  8. +asianskywalker It's statements like this that made others, specially Porsche fans, to actually believe in this "perfect Porsche quality". But we know better.
