So people out there actually think the only reason someone would get an R8 (or some other exotic) is to turn heads? Seriously? Here's a thought, maybe they just like the R8 better. I find the R8 more exciting personally, that's why I'd get it. I'd get an exotic because I like them and I DONT care what people think. These are not fashion accessories, they're supercars! I would love to track my R8, daily drive my R8, and sit in my garage to just look at my R8. I couldn't get as happy or excited about the 911, it resembles a VW bug too much, sure it drives great though. But seriously, to hell with what people think of your car weather they like it or not, you bought this 6-figure car, you might as well be the one who likes it!
Anybody who has owned a car before would know that the "turning heads" factor, while it will feel great in the beginning, gets incredibly old and sometimes even obnoxious, and it's what's underneath the car that makes you want to keep the car. With that said, however, the Turbo could really use some additional noise.
true. the drivers are pussies, they chose automatic transmissions. in my opinion the R8 is the best car in the world. BECAUSE of the transmission, i think it just brings out so much character. the dual clutch and open gated shifter is just PERFECT its a real CAR. they say audis are soul-less and boring, but, not the r8.
Actually there engines are made in Italy in the lamborghini factory I've bin in there factory for a tour around the facility and they showed us the engine rooms all hand assembled
the ones you saw are only the v12 engines for the aventador that are made in italiy the v10s from the gallardo huracan and lp 560 are made in germany at neckarsulm
You cant be serious comparing r8 to 911turbo. I am not a big fan of porshe but that fucker blows almost anything when it comes to take offs and all around performance.
Really? You must be quite young. The 911 continues to get larger, heavier, and more expensive. It is virtually all automated. Ask anyone over 20 and they will likely tell you the 964 or 993 is the best generation of all time. The 993 is my personal favorite as the last of the air-cooled variants.
I think it's all about preference and character... these days reviews are about how well the tires stick. fuck that... it's about what you want and how it sounds
I wish the 911 Turbo had the nicer interior and supercar looks but in the end I'd still buy a 911 Turbo for sheer driving enjoyment, and I wouldn't feel like I'm compromising or settling.
You guys are acting like those few snow flakes are the end of the world. That's nothing, and winter tires are not needed for this conditions, haha, wow
Snow tires are not just for snow. The tire compound of a snow tire is completely different then a summer or all season tire it's much softer and stays soft in temps below zero alowing it to stick to the road. That's why snow tires are often loud like off road tires. Part of the noise they make is due to the way the tred is cut too. But also even if there's no snow there can be ice people in England and in Scotland will use them for the rain and low temps and the odd snow fall. So there you go a little lesson on snow tires
Just drove with my mate in his 911 turbo. I fly aircraft for a hobby. Oh my God, what a machine! Watching this on YT gives NO idea of the acceleration. How formula 1 must be is unimagineable. I have a new found respect for these supercars. Pleaee, all of you, watch less and experience more. You will not be disappointed.
Honestly, id get the Porsche. Why? Because I don't give a fuck about what people think of me. I love Porsches, and driving them makes me happy. I don't want to get a stupid lambo or audi to turn heads. That's what people with no self confidence do, they worry about what other people think of them. Also fuck the tuning bullshit, I'm sick of hearing," get a corvette, it's cheaper and you tune it". Fuck that, that's not what these cars are meant for.
I'm still lost at picking 1 of them ... i had R8 V10 but never 911 Turbo ... i like to have a speed machine under me ... like to turn heads & laps all together ... so which 1 ??
Porsche SE owns 50% of Porsche AG (the car manufacturing business). Another 50% is owned by Volkswagen AG. Porsche SE also owns 50% of Volkswagen AG who on the other hand, fully owns Audi AG. So in short, Porsche SE owns both Volkswagen and Audi.
Aidan Haiqal That is how it used to be. Not anymore. VW bought the remaining 50.1% of Porsche in 2012 and now owns 100% of them. www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-07-04/volkswagen-to-purchase-remaining-porsche-stake-for-5-6-billion.html
Thanks Peter for the link. VW bought the car manufacturing business. Porsche SE- the holding company is still the largest shareholder of VW with 50.7% of common stock. Second is Lower Saxony govt with 20% stake. It says there in your article.
these guys are saying exact the opposite of what topgears said when they compared these cars! btw Audi every day of the week if i was rich enough to choose between them! Tthe audi R8 was meant to be a city car for everyday driving if im not misstaken but that v10 engine sure changes everything :D
Your comment on grip.... I took my 991 turbo s to Putnum park amateur small track. I disagree with you, I feel that the back end wants to step out so I have to back down on the power on most of turns. Not much grip, keep in mind this is a short track....
I drove facelifted lambo gallardo with that v10 engine, and ppl that are saying you buy those cars only to get an attention are plain stupid. You probably have no freakin idea how it feels to drive that mid engine monster, how great this engine sounds, how much fun you have as those cars are really tailhappy. Only bad thing in that car was that r-tronic gearbox but they changed it to stronic in those facelifted r8s - that makes them such perfect exotic cars. Who gives a flyin fk if that 911 will be 1 or 2 secs faster around the track...
great video guys! Honestly, everything I need to know, and nothing that I dont! Seems like motor trend car reviews are seriously going downhill, you guys can be the dark horse!
The 2015 Audi R8 V10 will be much better and faster than the boring 911....everywhere you can see the 911, but the R8 is a real Supercar with a great sound and much more emotions! :)
Who said Porsche was willing to loan a "Turbo S?" I'm sure they are grateful for whatever they get besides, when was last time you saw a Porsche commercial? Right, they don't need one or a magazine advertisement for that matter, these beast sell themselves!
Since most of the people will never track the car, the R8 is the winner. Everybody prefer the Turbo because of 0-60 and turning capability but come on, in real life 1 out of 10 will even put a feet on a race track. The R8 is just sexy and brutal. The beetle on steroids is perfect on numbers but lacks of soul, and the designe is just too boring and outdated (some will say it's heritage, ha!)
Depends. While I can agree between the base models between the two, the 911 wins when you're modding the chassis's. The Audi R8 doesn't have much room to work with as far as looks, but you can make the 911 looks like an absolute beats if you're willing to shell out the money for a bodykit which can range anywhere between 8-15k+ (which isn't much if you're wealthy enough for afford a 911 in the first place).
Porsche 911 Turbo, Nissan GTR, Audi R8 V10...just close your eyes and point. You can't lose no matter which one you end up pointing at. Plus, they all even have AWD??
You said V10 Plus is most expensive model in the range... Audi R8 V10 GT version starts at 213.350,00 $ and it's slightly better overall, mostly lighter.
Came in to question why a Turbo S wasn't used, until I realized they were trying to make the prices match as well. Turbo S is a lot more expensive than the R8 V10 Plus, unfortunately. Either way, the results would've been the same. Personally, I'd go with a Turbo S over the R8 V10 Plus, but I'd go with the R8 over the regular Turbo.
That is not quite true; - 991 Turbo S - From $182,700 - R8 V10 Plus DCT - From $179,645 Though Porsche does get a bit crazy with their options so the 991 Turbo S can realistically hit $200k...
They're US prices. The Audi dealer where I live had a fully loaded R8 V10+ model in their showroom for $186,500 USD, so the price from 2014 to today is pretty much unchanged.
Its shallow to get a car just because it turns heads. Car are like women, not everybody wants a girl that is flashy, look at me type. If you are not happy with yourself before you get your dream car, that dream car won't make you happy in the long run. That is why people keep on buying the latest thing to get that quick buzz and thinking they will finally be happy.............
Buying a car to get attention is stupid. But often, a car that gets other peoples' attention with its styling will also get YOUR attention with its styling. For most people, the R8 has a clear advantage in "holy damn" factor, which is a much bigger part of this segment than, say, midsize sedans. Myself though, I'm with the Porsche because I just like the design philosophy of the car, and to my eyes it's just as nice-looking.
if you are buying audi R8 , you are buying the V8 because this is the best car for what it was made (everyday, fast, easy to drive, pretty reilable, cheap car). you can buy the hardcore V10 plus , but you are paying extra money for the sprotiness you dont need . if you want sport car you buy GT3 RS or maybe even ferarri . its not worth buying any of them
The 911 turbo is fast as hell. The good thing about the 911 turbo is that is turbocharged from factory, whereas the R8 isnt. The other good thing about porsche is the handling. The damn car is way better than the audi R8. The R8 is almost like a drifto king car. Anyways, you can always modify them and compare who has a bigger dick but stock for stock. The 911 turbo beats it. Now about the looks. Depends on where you go. The audi R8 is definetly going to attrack more people than the 911 because the 911 turbo basically looks the same as a boxster, cayman, gt3, etc... Yes they dont look the same but remember not everyone has the money to afford a porsche and not everyone is a car enthusiast. So for the looks definitely an R8 because it just has that supercar look and you can see the engine covered with a piece of glass that revs up to 8700rpm with stock exhaust, its pretty loud. For handling and hauling ass through all gears, listening to the turbos screaming at your back, then definitely the 911 turbo.
I knew at the start of this video the r8 v10 plus was going to be a bit slower but the Audi is the better choyce in my opinions I would chuse an audi any where any time any price I LOVE AUDIS
Honestly. F the porsche. 150k for a car that looks just like the one thats 1/2 the price. Don't lie to yourself. The 911 doesn't look much different from the boxster or the cayman. I'll take the one thats got the engine from the $300thousand lambo instead of the $85 911 carrera.....
I would rather pay more, get the Gallardo than regret buying an Audi firstly. Secondly I would rather get a Porsche that outperforms a Gallardo and the Audi
Come on AutoGuide - you all should know better. The old 5.0V10 which was an Lambo design was retired a long time ago. This 5.2 V10 is an Audi design based off the 4.2 V8. It's not a "Lambo engine"
HARA69150 Dhaher Alelew Deng VVeiye The reason is price. Turbo S would be a lot more expensive than the V10 Plus. Also, HARA; are you trolling? I laughed at your comment. If you actually think that the Turbo is faster than the Turbo S, you should slap yourself. Edit: Also, what difference would it make? They would've reached the same conclusion; Turbo was faster than the R8, so Turbo S also would've been faster, and it shares the same overall exterior look and interior as the Turbo, so their conclusion would've been exactly the same.
NeutralGenericUser haha - -' i meant that the turbo is already faster than r8.. Think before judging, any logical person knows that the turbo S is faster than a turbo
Cars notwithstanding, this felt a bit like sitting through a lecture on sub-prime mortgages; had to scratch my balls with a stump grinder to elicit any emotion from the experience.
damn two of these idiots blew porsche pretty hard. "We didnt have a laptime but hehe the porsche is faster". Im not even a fan of the R8 but the porsche is disgusting. Next time you want to compare cars... dont be biased.
The Audi looks better! The porsche is boring! I want something that stands out and the r8 looks pretty interesting! I would rather turn a key to start the car than a boring button! The r8 is more funny to drive and I LOVE the stearing from the audi! AUDI R8 FOREVER!!
I hate to be that guy but a fairer comparison would be the 911 Turbo S because it's price is much closer to the Audi... With its increased horsepower the Turbo S would absolutely demolish the Audi... Not to mention who cares if Porsche 911's all look similar, because they all look better than any Audi ever made...
wtf why so much hp when in WWII the soviet KV-2 in 1939 with a 152mm M10-T howitzer which is 52.4 tones has 600 hp, goes 30 KM/H, and imagine if it was less than one tone, our cars dont need that much hp if u think about it... car lovers dont kill me pls
no "exotic" materials like in the audi? lol. like what cheap plastic? what exotic materials does the r8 have that the porsche doesnt? the porsche interior is BETTER than the r8 interior.
Turning heads?! Lol give me a break its a matter of taste. The new 991 looks gorgeous in person but in photos its not that good. I prefer the 911 bc its a drivers car and its all about driving pleasure. Its a Bentley, a Camry, and a Gt-R at the same time. Its a real car.
I disagree, the 911 is the head turner. Better looking, better engineered, easier to drive oh and not to mention faster and more practical. What more could you want? And all this on two less cylinders.
Nope. r8 looks cheap and chavvy. The 911 is the head turner. Maybe if your some brash loud mouthed young yob that has never driven anything other than a match box with less than 100bhp. Ah my mistake, so even with 4 more cylinders this so called "drivers car" gets shat on by the 911. Simply put, how long has the 911 been in production? And how long has the r8? I rest my case.
So people out there actually think the only reason someone would get an R8 (or some other exotic) is to turn heads? Seriously? Here's a thought, maybe they just like the R8 better. I find the R8 more exciting personally, that's why I'd get it. I'd get an exotic because I like them and I DONT care what people think. These are not fashion accessories, they're supercars! I would love to track my R8, daily drive my R8, and sit in my garage to just look at my R8. I couldn't get as happy or excited about the 911, it resembles a VW bug too much, sure it drives great though. But seriously, to hell with what people think of your car weather they like it or not, you bought this 6-figure car, you might as well be the one who likes it!
Anybody who has owned a car before would know that the "turning heads" factor, while it will feel great in the beginning, gets incredibly old and sometimes even obnoxious, and it's what's underneath the car that makes you want to keep the car. With that said, however, the Turbo could really use some additional noise.
LOL a turn key start system is not a disadvantage imo it adds more character to the car and seems less like an appliance.
true.
the drivers are pussies, they chose automatic transmissions.
in my opinion the R8 is the best car in the world.
BECAUSE of the transmission, i think it just brings out so much character.
the dual clutch and open gated shifter is just PERFECT
its a real CAR.
they say audis are soul-less and boring, but, not the r8.
gurbash washere agreed.the audi is always deemed a beginner's super car which is unfortunate because it is beautiful.Pricing is also very well imo.
turn key is for poor people
First gen Audi R8 is such a proper supercar. My dream car definitely.
lambo's have audi engines, not the other way around :)
Your wrong
lol. youre a moron.
he is right the lamborgini huracan and gallardo v10 engines are made in germany neckarsulm
Actually there engines are made in Italy in the lamborghini factory I've bin in there factory for a tour around the facility and they showed us the engine rooms all hand assembled
the ones you saw are only the v12 engines for the aventador that are made in italiy the v10s from the gallardo huracan and lp 560 are made in germany at neckarsulm
You cant be serious comparing r8 to 911turbo. I am not a big fan of porshe but that fucker blows almost anything when it comes to take offs and all around performance.
Porsche all day... This generation Porsche really are one of the best of all time!
Really? You must be quite young. The 911 continues to get larger, heavier, and more expensive. It is virtually all automated.
Ask anyone over 20 and they will likely tell you the 964 or 993 is the best generation of all time. The 993 is my personal favorite as the last of the air-cooled variants.
porsche is ugly
I choose turning heads.
Get a Renault Twizy then ;)
Is there a Renault Twizy in America?
Get an old jeep, take the doors off and drive around naked.
People who can afford turbo can afford r8. so it's really is buy which one first ..
TheNsuperable lol thats a great idea 😉
I'm a militant AUDI fan, but when it comes down to Porsche, got to respect the Big Brother!
1.Porsche
2.Audi

+giorgio armani What does this list represent?
Vethursan1 overall rating
giorgio armani For your opinion, or as for overall ranking considering the companies?
Vethursan1 of course my opinion. Every rating in the world is based on someones opinions
giorgio armani Arh ok. Yeah you are right, unless it's based on a specific topic with statistics etc. then it's an objective rating :)
The 911 is my baby, fun piece of machinery.
I think it's all about preference and character... these days reviews are about how well the tires stick. fuck that... it's about what you want and how it sounds
3:28...oh the humanity!
lol
The audi is still good despite it's age
I wish the 911 Turbo had the nicer interior and supercar looks but in the end I'd still buy a 911 Turbo for sheer driving enjoyment, and I wouldn't feel like I'm compromising or settling.
R8 all dayy
Is that an innovative front lip or are you just happy to see me?
Would rather have a Stingray or even a Camaro with HPE1000 and keep my 70-100k in my pocket !!
911 - better, faster, more practical...
but the R8 looks way more sexy
911 is uglier and gayer
911 turbo s baby......real shit
Thr R8 has been my favorite car since I was 9.
Retardday1 That means you are 18-19 yrs old :-)
ma lol
You got that right
You guys are acting like those few snow flakes are the end of the world. That's nothing, and winter tires are not needed for this conditions, haha, wow
Snow tires are not just for snow. The tire compound of a snow tire is completely different then a summer or all season tire it's much softer and stays soft in temps below zero alowing it to stick to the road. That's why snow tires are often loud like off road tires. Part of the noise they make is due to the way the tred is cut too. But also even if there's no snow there can be ice people in England and in Scotland will use them for the rain and low temps and the odd snow fall. So there you go a little lesson on snow tires
Tmp Cayuga? What was the best time in the turbo? I did 1:19s in my Cayman R. Only ask because I just upgraded to a 991 Turbo S.
One for Saturday. One for Sunday.
These are my two favourite cars!
Just drove with my mate in his 911 turbo. I fly aircraft for a hobby. Oh my God, what a machine! Watching this on YT gives NO idea of the acceleration. How formula 1 must be is unimagineable. I have a new found respect for these supercars. Pleaee, all of you, watch less and experience more. You will not be disappointed.
The nurburgring lap times says 911 turbo is faster ! R8 v10+ has a lap time of 7:45.00. The 911 Turbo has a lap time of 7:29.00, big difference here.
Porsche makes big torque !! wow !!
Would definitely like to see them revisit this comparison with summer tires on a hot summer day and see if any options have changed.
porsche 4 life.... who agrees?
Honestly, id get the Porsche. Why? Because I don't give a fuck about what people think of me. I love Porsches, and driving them makes me happy. I don't want to get a stupid lambo or audi to turn heads. That's what people with no self confidence do, they worry about what other people think of them. Also fuck the tuning bullshit, I'm sick of hearing," get a corvette, it's cheaper and you tune it". Fuck that, that's not what these cars are meant for.
Doesn't the Porsche start with a key too? The 2014 991 911 GTS I drove did
Porsche all day!!!
can't wait to see the new r8!
I'm still lost at picking 1 of them ... i had R8 V10 but never 911 Turbo ... i like to have a speed machine under me ... like to turn heads & laps all together ... so which 1 ??
Na over turbo any day! I'm sure the r8 is a more visceral car than the muted 911 turbo. Both are fantastic cars though.
Isn't Porsche owned by Volkswagen/Audi? Or aren't they partners? I could've sworn there is a connection.
Porsche SE owns 50% of Porsche AG (the car manufacturing business). Another 50% is owned by Volkswagen AG. Porsche SE also owns 50% of Volkswagen AG who on the other hand, fully owns Audi AG. So in short, Porsche SE owns both Volkswagen and Audi.

Turning laps :) always

I WANT THE PORSCHE 911 SO BAD!!!!!!

great video guys! Honestly, everything I need to know, and nothing that I dont! Seems like motor trend car reviews are seriously going downhill, you guys can be the dark horse!
I would personally take the R8 V10 over the 2014 911. I like the 2007 911 better than the new body style that came out.
The 2015 Audi R8 V10 will be much better and faster than the boring 911....everywhere you can see the 911, but the R8 is a real Supercar with a great sound and much more emotions! :)
Who said Porsche was willing to loan a "Turbo S?" I'm sure they are grateful for whatever they get besides, when was last time you saw a Porsche commercial? Right, they don't need one or a magazine advertisement for that matter, these beast sell themselves!
I see a lot of Porsche advertisements in magazines.
iSpotCars
Me too. And on news and business channels like MSNBC and Fox News and whatnot. Channels that people with money actually watch...
Great video 👍
Since most of the people will never track the car, the R8 is the winner.

Porsche 911 Turbo, Nissan GTR, Audi R8 V10...just close your eyes and point. You can't lose no matter which one you end up pointing at. Plus, they all even have AWD??
Why not a turbo S? Porsche would win even more of course.
Audi is the best car
***** Audi R8 better sound and looks better. Everyone has their own opinion ;)

Hmmm.. Are this testing on winter tires? Seems like a waste of time to me..
+Imunderpar4win Driving these cars are not wasting time, no matter the tires.
Are both the ones you tested RWD or AWD?
They are both all-wheel drive.
Very well ! Turbo track friendly, Audi groceries getter !
great video !!
You said V10 Plus is most expensive model in the range... Audi R8 V10 GT version starts at 213.350,00 $ and it's slightly better overall, mostly lighter.
Man everyone arguing which one is better, just give me both!
very nice review.
Came in to question why a Turbo S wasn't used, until I realized they were trying to make the prices match as well. Turbo S is a lot more expensive than the R8 V10 Plus, unfortunately.

That is not quite true;

- R8 V10 Plus DCT - From $179,645
Though Porsche does get a bit crazy with their options so the 991 Turbo S can realistically hit $200k...
Porsche looks much better sportier
Damn I really want the audi r8 v10
Are these U.S. prices or CAD?
They're US prices.
The Audi dealer where I live had a fully loaded R8 V10+ model in their showroom for $186,500 USD, so the price from 2014 to today is pretty much unchanged.
I drove the r8 last week first time. i will stick to my 911. way better. also track champion.
Audi interior is a killer !!! LOVE IT
Its shallow to get a car just because it turns heads. Car are like women, not everybody wants a girl that is flashy, look at me type. If you are not happy with yourself before you get your dream car, that dream car won't make you happy in the long run. That is why people keep on buying the latest thing to get that quick buzz and thinking they will finally be happy.............
quit bringing logic or ruining people's good time we just want to beat off to things we will never get
Buying a car to get attention is stupid. But often, a car that gets other peoples' attention with its styling will also get YOUR attention with its styling.

Noticed this is not the turbo s. Plus vs turbo.
I like the r8 a lot but only 385tq out of a v10 is pitiful.
+Alex High revving
a 911 Turbo without Ceramic Brakes ...
The 911 turbo is fast as hell. The good thing about the 911 turbo is that is turbocharged from factory, whereas the R8 isnt. The other good thing about porsche is the handling.

Get the r8 and get a good aftermarket suspension ..you can turn laps and turn heads and hear that intoxicating v10 howl .
I am thinking about the Porsche but really attracted to the iron man audi
and now, take the turbo s! this machine will destroy all audi-bitch-cars!
porsche ftw
I knew at the start of this video the r8 v10 plus was going to be a bit slower but the Audi is the better choyce in my opinions I would chuse an audi any where any time any price I LOVE AUDIS
Porsche all the way
good video
Honestly. F the porsche. 150k for a car that looks just like the one thats 1/2 the price. Don't lie to yourself. The 911 doesn't look much different from the boxster or the cayman. I'll take the one thats got the engine from the $300thousand lambo instead of the $85 911 carrera.....
***** Your right Lambos are cheaper than 300k. But that only jhelps make it the BETTER choice.....
I would rather pay more, get the Gallardo than regret buying an Audi firstly. Secondly I would rather get a Porsche that outperforms a Gallardo and the Audi
The 911 actually looks a lot different than the Boxter and the Cayman, especially the rear end.
I'll just get a gtr lol
The 911 turbo will beat any car on the track lambos or ferrari, why mention audio LOL
Great Cars!☆
Come on AutoGuide - you all should know better. The old 5.0V10 which was an Lambo design was retired a long time ago. This 5.2 V10 is an Audi design based off the 4.2 V8. It's not a "Lambo engine"
911 all day erry day
Really good !!!!!
why not turbo s
I was watching the video thinking it is a turbo S, and you are right! that is weird lol
the turbo is faster.. why use the turbo s?
HARA69150 Dhaher Alelew Deng VVeiye The reason is price. Turbo S would be a lot more expensive than the V10 Plus. Also, HARA; are you trolling? I laughed at your comment. If you actually think that the Turbo is faster than the Turbo S, you should slap yourself.
Edit: Also, what difference would it make? They would've reached the same conclusion; Turbo was faster than the R8, so Turbo S also would've been faster, and it shares the same overall exterior look and interior as the Turbo, so their conclusion would've been exactly the same.
NeutralGenericUser haha - -' i meant that the turbo is already faster than r8..
Think before judging, any logical person knows that the turbo S is faster than a turbo
HARA69150 After reading your explanation, it is obvious what you were trying to say. I don't know why I thought it was something else :P
Cars notwithstanding, this felt a bit like sitting through a lecture on sub-prime mortgages; had to scratch my balls with a stump grinder to elicit any emotion from the experience.
damn two of these idiots blew porsche pretty hard. "We didnt have a laptime but hehe the porsche is faster". Im not even a fan of the R8 but the porsche is disgusting. Next time you want to compare cars... dont be biased.
i'll take the porsche, just not in that color. a different colored porsche would turn more heads than that audi
Not even a Turbo S -.-
I'd take a V8 Audi R8 over a 911 Turbo, srs.
The Audi looks better! The porsche is boring! I want something that stands out and the r8 looks pretty interesting! I would rather turn a key to start the car than a boring button! The r8 is more funny to drive and I LOVE the stearing from the audi! AUDI R8 FOREVER!!
try turbo S 560 horsepower just amazing
V10 vs v6 , Porsche the king
Turning laps.
I hate to be that guy but a fairer comparison would be the 911 Turbo S because it's price is much closer to the Audi... With its increased horsepower the Turbo S would absolutely demolish the Audi... Not to mention who cares if Porsche 911's all look similar, because they all look better than any Audi ever made...
audi r8 have more horsepower!?
base model 911 is the way to go.
wtf why so much hp when in WWII the soviet KV-2 in 1939 with a 152mm M10-T howitzer which is 52.4 tones has 600 hp, goes 30 KM/H, and imagine if it was less than one tone, our cars dont need that much hp if u think about it... car lovers dont kill me pls
Turning laps all the way !!
this man said odin its audi lmao
no "exotic" materials like in the audi? lol. like what cheap plastic?
what exotic materials does the r8 have that the porsche doesnt?
the porsche interior is BETTER than the r8 interior.
+mainlymusicman so your jdudging it by its appearance CAR NOOB DETECTED!
Turning heads?! Lol give me a break its a matter of taste. The new 991 looks gorgeous in person but in photos its not that good. I prefer the 911 bc its a drivers car and its all about driving pleasure. Its a Bentley, a Camry, and a Gt-R at the same time. Its a real car.
I disagree, the 911 is the head turner. Better looking, better engineered, easier to drive oh and not to mention faster and more practical. What more could you want? And all this on two less cylinders.
Nope. r8 looks cheap and chavvy. The 911 is the head turner. Maybe if your some brash loud mouthed young yob that has never driven anything other than a match box with less than 100bhp. Ah my mistake, so even with 4 more cylinders this so called "drivers car" gets shat on by the 911. Simply put, how long has the 911 been in production? And how long has the r8? I rest my case.
