Fail not knowing what an audi R8 is

I know what an R8 is moron.

[nreggie454]

Yeah that was by FAR the second dumbest post in here. An Audi R8 is more rare than a Porsche? What kind? An A4 isn't more rare than a GT3. I mean that makes no sense.

x2

What an idiot. If you wanna play the rare game, I'd rather have a factory 914-8.

X2, or maybe a 993 911-GT1.

That is probably my favorite car ever. If I win the lottery someday, I will get one even if it takes all of the money I won.

I know u are going to think im bias but NO WAY majority would pick a porsche boxter base over an s2k. pics of both with stats and a poll would be nice to see

hec even some pics of them modified

Most publications continue to pick a Boxster over the BMW Z4 and S2K and have done so since 1997 when the Z3 was around.

put another $20,000 on the price tag of the s2k like the z4 and the boxster has and we'll see which one performs better and gets chosen .

the boxster is a $46,000 car.. where the s2k is a $26,000 car.. and delivers almost the same performance.. sad.

You shot yourself in the ovary for not being able to read on that one, I knew exactly what you meant. You made it sound like Porsche is just one model, you said an R8 is more rare than a Porsche, but that doesn't make sense, there are rare and not rare Porsches, just as an A4 is a common Audi an R8 is a rare Audi.

Pretty sure I know more about cars than you.

No asshole you didn't word your shit right. You should have said "What kind of Audi?" Instead you made it look like "What kind of Audi R8?"

He's too fucking stupid to realize that.

[Doppelgänger]

Hole fucking shit my head fucking hurts after reading like 4 pages of this thread.

Let me asy this pertaining to the latest argument...

While I love the R8....beautiful cars...but I see FAR MORE Audi R8s then I do GT3s, GT2s and have only seen one GT3-RS crusing around Atlanta. I mean, comparing the top-of-the-line from Audi and Porsche. Actually, I see more R8s then the afrementioned Porsche models combined.

As for that video of the all-mighty pile of plastic crap aka the ZR-1 beating the other cars, I suggest the other video with better drivers and no bias...the 997 GT2 takes the ZR-1 from a dig and the ZR1 only pulls on the GT2 for just a moment while the turbos spool up and then the distance stays even. Build quality on a Corvette is still disppointing. GT2>ZR1. Besides, a GM v8 always sounds the same..if it's in a truck, a Corvette or a Camaro...they all sound the same..if you were to close your eyes you wouldn't be able to say if its a car or truck. You know what the flat-6 of a Porsche sounds like? A Porsche....distinctive on to itself....one ALWAYS knows the sound of a 911 and know it can only be a 911.

honda>everything else

Im not reading all 17 pages..... all i gotta say is Torque Wins Races.... unless your racing 5 miles in a straight line... then HP may come in to play lol

Torque doesn't win on a road course. Not ALWAYS.

[©hris]

Torque doesn't win on a road course. Not ALWAYS.

depends on gear ratios i suppose as well as the track.

[Doppelgänger]

Yeah...ummmm I'm going to have to disagree with that Chris...torque gets you moving, power keeps you going. Remember when Mazda won Le Mans back in 1991 using rotary? Ever watch F1?

Yes I know that Audi and Peugeot use diesel and that diesel is all about TQ...but that requires gearing the car specifically for accelerating with TQ.

How about this.... good design wins races

[©hris]

lol ok well when getting that in depth i suppose but the thread is Honda vs Porsche.... all i read was the first post

[e30pwr]

17 pages of continuous bitching at each other for saying things just for the sake of arguments sake? yep, sounds like IA. continue boys, i need some entertainment

[Leadfoot_mf]

I wish I could buy the cheapest shittiest Porsche I could find so I could be a snob to other car owners

Porsche makes shitty models don't act like they don't. Any boxster or Carrera base would get raped by most other cars.

I can go buy a $20000 2000-2001 Porsche that's a piece of shit and slow as Fuck doesn't make me cool

924 case in point

[Ziptied]

Most publications continue to pick a Boxster over the BMW Z4 and S2K and have done so since 1997 when the Z3 was around.

And most will agree around a track the S2000 is better than the boxster and Z4.

[speedminded]

I know what he was trying to do, but he's the idiot as my Hondas can never be fast comment was a JOKE. I've owned lots and use to only be about Hondas sadly. It was just going with the flow of the kids idiotic thread.



944 turbos do have their issues as many of the front engined P cars did and any Porsche is expensive to upkeep. Even a 914 cost money to keep running. I've never said EVERY Porsche is Gods gift. However Porsche knows what they're doing, they build quality cars, they build fast cars and they stay loyal to their customers.

Why did they use Audi engines in the 944 again? The 944 is a great chassis, tons of potential, but it's a pile of shit engine.

The 924 is just a POS all around.

And most will agree around a track the S2000 is better than the boxster and Z4.

LOLOL. How do you propose backing that statement up? Other than being way outclassed can you name the reasons why the S2000 sucks on a road course? As much as I love them it doesn't exactly make a great race car...

[speedminded]

This thread is still going on.





Screw a porsche. I'd do an Audi R8 all day. Way more rare.

You just compared a specific model to an entire line of cars from a manufacturer. Just sayin.

Yeah that was by FAR the second dumbest post in here. An Audi R8 is more rare than a Porsche? What kind? An A4 isn't more rare than a GT3. I mean that makes no sense.

Simon just asked, "what kind?" As in what kind of Porsche are you comparing the Audi R8 to?

Are you freaking retarded? I said an AUDI R8. Here let me help you. www.audiusa.com


You don't know jack crap about cars if you don't know what an Audi R8 is. I didn't say shit about an A4. You shot yourself in the balls on that one. Just delete your post.

Beyond helpless. Way beyond.

You shot yourself in the ovary for not being able to read on that one, I knew exactly what you meant. You made it sound like Porsche is just one model, you said an R8 is more rare than a Porsche, but that doesn't make sense, there are rare and not rare Porsches, just as an A4 is a common Audi an R8 is a rare Audi.

Pretty sure I know more about cars than you.

604 US Porsche Carrera GT's > 9,945 Audi R8's
317 US Porsche 996 GT2's > 9,945 Audi R8's
205 US Porsche 997 GT2's > 9,945 Audi R8's

I've never been a huge fan of front engined Porsches, the 924 and 944 both were however pretty good cars. The 944 turbo is pretty fast out of the box and the NA versions are still popular in racing to this day.

944 = Best handling car in America in 1984 wiki it! lol

[EJ25RUN]

I prefer this....



Cause I love my Audi's, especially when Porsche gets involved

Ohh...Good post here.

I guess i'll say i like the Mercedes Benz 500E for similar reasons as both were built in Porsche's Rossle-Bau factory.

An ugly ass thing?

Porsche.

The Harley-Davidson VRSC (V-Twin Racing Street Custom) family of cruiser motorcycles was introduced in 2001 in a single model called the V-Rod. The V-Rod was developed by Harley-Davidson to compete against Japanese and American muscle bikes. The "V-Rod" made use of the Revolution engine, developed jointly with Porsche that, for the first time in Harley history, incorporates fuel injection, overhead cams, and liquid cooling.

I don't care if it was entirely a Porsche it's ugly as fuck.
