911 vs. Colnago Titanium 18 speed racing bike

I don't know - I went to the bicycle store to repair a tire on my road bike. Prominantly displayed in the window, on a stand, is a Colnago race bike. It probably weighs 15 or 16 pounds has top of the line Campy equipment on it, and rims that cost double that of a nice set of Fuchs. It was going for $6,700 - which is cheap, considering most full-race Colnagos hit close to $8-$10K depending on the edition.

So they get higher mileage than a 911 (of course), and can corner better (maybe)...

But in the meantime, one can get a 3.6 engine for $5,500 these days.

So I didn't buy the bike. Do you blame me?
