Which is best Audi R8 or Porsche 911 Turbo?

Who makes the more technologically sophisticated high performace sports car? Audi or Porsche?



Also why is it that one is more advanced than the other? How do these two compare?Which is best Audi R8 or Porsche 911 Turbo?If you were to compare these cars from their performance numbers only......the Porsche 911 Turbo is better (in acceleration, overall power 480 hp vs the R8's 420) in most aspects except for handling. The Porsche 911 is legendary in the sports car world and has an illustrious history unlike the R8. The Porsche 911 Turbo has been in criticized by car magazines and other publications. They seem to prefer the 911 GT3/GT3 RS as it offers a more pure 911 experience.

The R8 is loaded with technology such as Audi's Space Frame, Quattro all-wheel drive, Audi's FSI, magnetic ride control, and LED headlights. The Porsche 911 Turbo is slightly more expensive than the R8. Many people criticize the 911's familiar look but in a way i think the 911 styling is timeless. The R8 looks much better in my opinion however and it would be rarer on the road. If I had the money these cars cost I would seriously look at the Porsche 911 GT3 but I think I would choose the R8 as it is a better road car.Which is best Audi R8 or Porsche 911 Turbo?The Audi R8 competes with the Porsche 911 Carrera S, not the Turbo. The Carrera S and the R8 have nearly the same performance and display identical lap times.

The 911 Turbo is much faster than the Audi R8.



In terms of AWD, the Audi R8 is more advanced than the 911 Turbo.

In terms of turbocharging, the Porsche is more advanced.

In terms of engines, they are almost equal, but the Porsche is more advanced because they make 6 cylinder cars that can go as fast as 8 and 10 cylinder cars.

In terms of comfort and luxury, The Audi is best, but not by far.

In terms of practicality, the Porsche is best because it has back seats.

Both cars are very good, but I would prefer the Porsche because they have much more experience and they are more reliable.Which is best Audi R8 or Porsche 911 Turbo?Obviously, the 911 has the advantage over the R8 at this point, only because it is a tried and true performer. It is a traditional performance vehicle that has a very solid history on the road and the track. There are many aspects of the R8 that are much more appealing than the 911. It has an obvious advantage in power to weight and handling due to its mid mounted engine design. I like the styling of the R8 much better. I wish more manufacturers would get with the futuristic styling. If I had to put my money into one of these two cars right now (assuming I actually had the money) I would get the R8 without hesitation.
