thing is...all porsche's look the same. they aren't 'head turners' and never will be. Theres just too many different models that look the same. So there a waste of money in my opinion.
actually, price wise, retail for the 2003 996twin turbo was: $125,685 and 2003 modena 360 was: $143,860
really not much of a difference. I have friends that own both and I like both cars. I think the ferrari is the better looking of the two, but the 996 is definitely faster, Porsche severely underrates it's cars. Also, ferraris spend more time in repair and porsches are like the toyotas of the supercar world. I'd like to own both, but I'll stick with my sti due to budgetary constraints
I don't think it was a fair trial, because the Modena has lots of torque - an yes it is faster on a straight shoot. The 996 Turbo has a lot of traction for the kind of test they were doing. Thats Porsh's main strength, their stability and handling.
You're rignt! I watched it a couple of days later and lo and behold, the same cars. Modena takes off quick, but the Porshe won; I was pretty impressed.
porsche's are really good at holding to road, its because they have lots of systems on them. Technology!!! Engine, gearbox, mechanics goes to Ferrari...
I'd still have the Fezza, just listen to it!

I love Porsche power and performance
Ferrari is a beautiful car, very passionate
You can' compare because a 360 used cost more then a 996 new.
Both are beautiful and powerful racecars.

Modena faster on a straight? The Porsche beats the Ferrari easily on the 1/4mile run on the longer version of this video
