The sports cars industry is a very huge world where the best companies in the automobile industry compete to produce the ultimate sports car for the consumers. Sports cars are used on a daily bases throughout the whole world; they are used as an everyday cars, racing cars, city cars as most of them are small and easy to park and also as family cars for couples who don't have children who want to have some fun before getting a child and having to buy a proper family car. Today, we compare two of the top of the line sports cars, the Bugatti Veyron and the Porsche 911 Turbo.Both cars are similar in many ways and different in so much more other ways. For example, both cars are sports cars, where they share most of the main aspects of sports cars like, light weight, two doors, rear engine, sport seats, rough ride, lots of safety features and lots of power. The two cars have an all wheel system and that is to maintain all the power which will be difficult to manage. They are both made by German automobile manufacturers and both got so much attention by the sports cars audience.
Although these cars are very similar in many aspects, they are very different in many other ways, like the Bugatti Veyron has 1001 horsepower (Eric Adams, Joe Brown, Dan Lienert 2006) while the Porsche 911 Turbo has only 480 horsepower. The Bugatti Veyron, accelerates from zero to hundred kilometers per hour in 2.5 seconds while the Porsche 911 reaches a hundred kilometers in 3.6 seconds. (Kim Reynolds 2007) Radiators wise, the Porsche has only one radiator while the Bugatti has 10 radiators to cool off the heat that is generated from the original 3000 horsepower and two thirds of them are lost as heat. (Wikipedia) All in all, both cars are very successful in the motor world and have broken some records. For example, the Porsche held the lap time record for the Nuremburg race track for some time before another car broke the record. The Bugatti holds the world record for top speed for production cars which is 253mph.
