    haha I wasn’t trying to be mean about it. The extra weight hurts when cornering or the feeling of being nimble. I can already tell a small difference between my 750s and the 296 as it is.

  3. The Turbo S is a nice Brooks Brothers suit. Nothing more, nothing less.

    The 296 is a Brioni, maybe even a made-to-measure one.

    Both good suits, but made for different sartorial situations.

    Just like these two cars, Turbo S and 296.

    Nothing like a Brioni! It is something for the Brooks Brothers buyers to aspire to !

    Guys the Turbo S is an awesome car but:

    1. it’s not even close to as fast as a 296! Forget about 0-60 which is pretty much a meaningless metric. 0-124mph, quarter mile and 60-130mph the 296 is on a different planet!
    2. The Ferrari is much more visceral and fun to drive.
    3. Ferrari is lighter
    4. Ferrari looks better

    love the Porsche and have owned many. Is a better everyday high performance car vs a somewhat compromised super car.

    Made me think…
    New Turbo S — Rolex Daytona (after all, Porsche seems to win more Rolex 24 hours at Daytona than any other manufacturer—I’ve seen many there)
    Ferrari 296 — Vacheron Constantin
    Bugatti (any) - Patek Philippe Quadruple Complication
    Aston Martin Vantage --Patek Philippe Calatrava

    The TurboS is great if you want to be more discrete. Not completely, but more so. I don’t really mind too much to valet.

    The 296 is a lot more fun to drive. Always.
