Porsche: porsche vs corvette

Don't know what years/model you are comparing but in general they are
completely different cars in build quality and they way they perform.
Spec "numbers" mean nothing.

It's what makes the world go 'round.

Why would anyone own a Rolex when he could get a Casio that kept better time
and cost about what it costs to ship a Rolex home for service. And no one
would be inclined to hit him over the head to steal it.

So why would anyone buy either a Corvette or a Porsche (note
capitalizations) when a Corolla would get him there just as well with body
and operator's permit intact, and no one would be inclined to hit him over
the head to steal it.

Beats me.

There is an old adage that still holds true...

You get what you pay for.

I think the reason the Porsches cost so much is because they are made
by Bavarian elfs and I hear they have a strong union. And besides, I
think the Corvettes have more plastic in them.

They do have more plastic and carbon fiber, from what I've read. Whats
is the GT Carrerra made from? More simailar than not from the c6 z06
perhaps.

I'll go for Allen Edmonds over Gucci anyday. Not the most expensive.
Quality and performance is what counts

That Z-06 with the Bilstein suspension package, the Bosch fuel injection and
the 928 inspired transaxle?

I hear they want to replace the checkered flag on the Corvette emblem with
the German national flag!
