Summary 3



Porsche 911 VS Bugatti Veyron

There are many fast cars in the world, but there are few cars which are good. In this essay, I would like to describe a few similarities and differences between the Porsche 911 and the Bugatti Veyron.
There are significant differences between the Porsche 911 and the Bugatti Veyron. One important difference is that the price is a big difference.  The Porsche 911 is cheaper; it US$137,000 , but the Bugatti Vegatti is more expensive; it costs US$ 1,600,000 . Another major difference is the top speed. The top speed for the Porsche 911 is 192 mph (Renolds, 2007), but the Bugatti Vegatti is 253 mph (Bovington, 2010). Another difference is the weight of the car. The weight of the Bugatti Veyron is 4350 b, but the Porsche 911 is weight is 3650 b. Yet another big difference is where they are made. The Bugatti is made in Italy, and the Porsche 911 is made in Germany. They also differ in the horsepower. The Porsche 911 has 480 horsepower, and the Veyron has 1001 horsepower (Adams, et al., 2006).
They have several things in common. A notable similarity is the kind of the car. Both the Porsche 911 and the Bugatti Veyron are sport cars. They are also alike in speed. The Porsche 911 and the Bugatti Veyron both go from zero to 60 mph in fewer than five seconds. Another major similarity is that they are both expensive. They both cost more then US$ 100,000 . Yet they are also alike in the posotion of the engine. The engine is in the rear of the Bugatti Veyron and the Porsche 911.  You could not see a lot of Porsche 991s and Bugatti Veyrons.
In conclusion, I think that the Porsche 911 is better . One reason why I believe this is it is cheaper than the Bugatti Veyron. Another reason is the Porsche 911 is more economical than the Bugatti Veyron.
