Ferrari 599 vs Porsche Carrera GT & MBZ McLaren SLR...
Apparently the horses are a bit bigger in Germany (not to mention the big difference in weight with the CGT) vs. Italy
Ferrari 599 vs. Porsche Carrera GT
Ferrari 599 vs Mercedes Mclaren SLR

Porsche - 3000lbs
Ferrarri - 3700lbs
McLaren - 3900lbs
Video is pretty boring. It is not what I would try to do with those cars and proves nothing except a lighter car with the same power is faster. I am sure whoever buys the 599 had some other priorities in mind.
I would be interested in seeing them doing some lapping sessions.
The Porsche is my favorite supercar though. Amazing piece of machinery.

In addition it's the best sounding car ever made IMO.

Both the Porsche and Ferrari would have spots in my modern dream car garage, right next to the 911 Turbo, Elise, Z06, and of course...my 8.
My classic garage, well, that's a even longer list.

The links above didnt work because you were missing the h in http btw.. i fixed it..
Anyway.. that ferrari has to be the ugliest i've ever seen. I hate to say that because I never thought there'd be a ferrari i didn't like and the enzo was pushing it, but that one.. is hideous..
