Porsche And Ferrari: Germany Vs Italy

Porsche and Ferrari are German and Italian sides of the same coin, interpretations of the sports car idea. Both founded by a dominant patriarch, both honed in racing, both more than 50 years old, both with engineering and styling integrity. Whether on the track of Le Mains or on the streets, the two have always been put head-to-head and compared. Even the most naive motorist associates these two names with both performance and style.

We’ve decided to compare the methodical Porsche 911 Carrera 4S and the passionate Ferrari F430 because both of them astonish with their performance while attempting to maintain a reasonable amount of practicality but do not pretend to be anything other than sports cars.

A modern sports car should feature these characteristics: it should be started easily, maneuvered around town, blasted on a couple of country roads, it looks and performs the part on a racetrack but at the same time it is very safe.

The easier way to separate the two cars is by measuring figures since both of them have mastered the modern sports car requirements and basically there’s no other way to choose between these two phenomenal cars.

What initially impresses is Ferrari’s lightning fast 4-second 0-100km/h acceleration and thrilling exhaust tone. As the occupants are pinned to the seats, the new generation 4.3-litre V8 pushes out 368 snarling kilowatts. Porsche’s acceleration also offers that kick in the pants a super car should deliver, although it is 0.8 seconds slower at the 100 km/k mark.

With such acceleration performance, it comes natural for both cars to excel in the braking department. The two cars offer optional ceramic discs for impressive stopping.

Porsche’s engine gets the upper hand as it is more refined and on the economy rank leaps ahead Ferrari with a 11.8 liters per 100 km as opposed to 18.3 liters. Both cars deliver the power through impressive 6-speed gearboxes and offer top rate handling performance.

Both F430 and Carrera4S offer great interior comfort and even if the space is limited, the occupants don’t feel claustrophobic and flustered. Although an impressive mix of suede, carbon fiber and aluminum abound in the Ferrari, the Italians stand no chance when it comes to the high finish level attained by the Germans.

Speed and silence are key elements for any super car. The look and appearance is the biggest draw card. The Carrera 4S is a typical Porsche, despite the new proportions. It is a great looking car, like any other 911 but somehow the styling no longer creates the jaw dropping reaction that the Ferrari does. Indeed, traditionalists may say that Porsche pays homage to its roots, but the truth is that Ferrari F430 simply draws the attention.

However, even if Ferrari F430 takes your breath away with its appearance, the super car title goes to the Porsche Carrera 4S with a more complete all round package.

Five of the top car brands in Germany

People can be very particular about the cars they drive; some people choose to buy a car only after careful consideration of all the makes and models available. Some people may only choose cars from certain manufacturers because of prior experience or perhaps upon recommendation from other.

Some people choose their cars based on where they came from, a lot of people choose German cars because of this reason based on the track record of German cars being powerful and stylish. Famous brands such as BMW and Audi pride themselves on stylish cars that perform well as either executive cars or powerful sports cars depending on the model. Below are five of the best German car brands that people like to choose:

BMW
BMW is a very successful German car brand and has cars in almost every category from the sporting sedan – the M5, to a large 4×4 – the X5; they even have a fun sports car in the Mini Cooper. BMW has cars in the racing world also with touring cars as well as Formula 1. BMW cars are powerful, elegant and comfortable all at once making it a very popular brand.

Mercedes-Benz
Whilst BMW is often thought of as a more “clinical”, industrial brand Mercedes-Benz is more of a luxury vehicle. Mercedes again has cars in the racing world as well as producing street cars that could give racing cars a run for their money for example the McLaren SLR. The Mercedes SL and CL series are both popular with people looking for a smaller, luxury, executive car.

Audi
Audi have recently been making more and more impressive car models aimed at the executive and sporting realm like the Mercedes. Their increasing range of smaller sporty models like the TT and the R8 has also enabled them to compete with BMW’s Z4 and other small sports cars. Audi cars have a lot of innovations such as the LED strip lighting that has become as iconic as the four rings on the Audi badge.

Volkswagen (VW)
Volkswagen are well known for their rallying car, the Golf, which these days is considered a leading medium sized car, able to compete with many sports car offerings from other brands. The VW Beetle is another iconic car that has been popular during its many iterations from the 60s to present day.

Porsche
Porsche are well known for making some of the best supercars such as the 911 and Cayenne – which is a mix of the traditional Porsche sports car with a 4×4. The shape and design of the Porsche is instantly recognisable and has its fair share of fans.

If you’re looking for a quality used German car then used car finance or another form of car credit could enable you to buy the car you want at a price that suits your circumstances.

Porsche wins “Best New Engine 2009 Award”

Porsche

Stuttgart.

Once again Dr. Ing. h.c. F. Porsche AG, Stuttgart, has been successful in the International Engine of the Year Awards. With its 3.8-litre power unit from the 911 Carrera S models, the sports car manufacturer has underpinned its position in a fie of high performance competitors, receiving the coveted “Best New Engine 2009 Award”. For eleven years now, this prize has been awarded by the British specialist journal “Engine Technology International” for outstanding engine characteristics.

With the new flat-six engines featuring direct fuel injection Porsche is raising the sportiness, efficiency and environmental compatibility of the 911 to an even higher level than before. The Carrera S for the first time also comes with Porsche’s new double-clutch transmission (PDK). And despite an increase in power by 8.5 per cent, the PDK models reduce fuel consumption by more than 13 per cent and CO2 emissions by almost 15 percent.

Output of the 3.8-litre power unit in the S-models is up by 30 to 385 bhp (283 kW), pushing the extra-powerful S-version beyond the magic speed barrier of 300 km/h or 186 mph. Despite this supreme power and performance, the new models in the 911 range once again boast a significant reduction of fuel consumption, the 911 Carrera S Coupé with the PDK version offering even greater fuel economy with average fuel consumption of just 10.2 litres/100 km (combined overall fuel consumption to the EU5 standard).

Readers of German Car Magazine “sport auto” vote Porsche No 1 Four Times

Rolls Royce

Stuttgart.

The readers of “sport auto“, one of Germany’s leading car magazines, have chosen four sports cars from Dr. Ing. h.c. F. Porsche AG, Stuttgart, as the best cars in their respective categories. This year readers were able to choose among 260 sporting cars in sixteen categories for production vehicles and ten categories for tuned cars. 10,112 readers participated in the survey.

The new Porsche 911 GT3 received the clearest vote, with 37 per cent of all readers choosing the most sporting 911 as the No 1 in the category of coupés up to Euro 150,000. Approximately one-quarter of the jury chose the Boxster S as the best production cabriolet up to Euro 60,000 and the Carrera S Cabriolet as the top open-air car up to Euro 120,000. Receiving almost 18 per cent of all votes, the Porsche Cayman came No 1 in the category of coupés up to Euro 50,000, while the Carrera S came second – very close to first place – in the category of coupés up to Euro 100,000.

Just how much the readers of “sport auto“ appreciate Porsche’s outstanding competence comes out clearly through the fact that the Panamera was voted No 3 in the category of saloons over Euro 80,000 – although so far the Panamera has not even been launched into the market.

The German car magazine “sport auto“ has been requesting its readers to vote for the “Most Sporting Car of the Year” since 1980. In the first year readers were able to choose among 69 models in six categories, the Porsche 911 SC and the 930 Turbo scoring a double victory for Porsche right from the start in the very first year. In all, sports cars from Zuffenhausen have come right at the top no less than 44 times in the last 29 years.
