Just what you'd think, the Porsche is a high tech car, easy to drive fast, blah blah
That Ferrari sounded like it need a tune-up, or something

I read a comparison of the 959 and F40 in either Excellence or GT...some Porsche related mag. They said that due to the turbo lag on the F40, it was a bear to drive.
Cool video

I would say that the road that was driven favored the 959. I have greater lust for the F fo'ty

The obvious emotional choice is the f40. 959 is the logical one.

The Ferrari seems too high maintenance. Like you need a pit crew to follow you everywhere. Sure would like to give it a try though...
