Reflection

In this course we learned a lot of things and I will write some points. First of all we learned how to go to the library and read magazines and summarize it,           in addition of that we learned how to deal with sites in the internet and we wrote about Bugatti v. Porsche. Also we learned how to enter the exams and solve it all so that things helped us a lot to learn more vocabulary and how to use it and I think this is much easier than just reading and recording it.   

Bugatti vs. Porsche 911

There are many luxury cars in the world. Two of the most luxurious cars are the Bugatti and Porsche 911.  In the following, I will outline some similarities and differences between them.

Let’s first look at the similarities. The first point to consider is in terms of racing. To clarify, most people agree that both cars are used most in sport. Yet another point in common is with regard to the number of doors. In other words, both cars are coupe and have two seats. Another obvious similarity is that they are made in the same country. For instance, both of them are made by German companies.

Having looked at some similarities, now let’s turn our attention to some differences. For starters, many people claim one obvious difference worthy of mentioning is with respect to price. To illustrate, the Bugatti is much more expensive than the Porsche 911. Bovingdon states that the Bugatti costs up to $1,980,000 (2010). Another point contrasting these two cars is regarding to weight. For example,  the Bugatti Veyron is heavier than the Porsche 911. Renolds indicates that the weight of the Porsche is between 3,650 and 3,750 pounds (2007). Bovingdon says that the weight of the Bugatti is 4350 pounds (2010). Finally, a good number of people feel another notable distinction concerns the top speed. For instance, the Bugatti is much faster than the Porsche 911. Adams, Brown and Lienert claim "the bugatti veyron 16.4 cannot fairly be compared with other cars, because none, including Formula One racers, can match its specs ….. 0 to 60 mph in 2.5 seconds" (2006). 

In brief, taking into account all that I have mentioned regarding this issue, I believe the Porsche is better because it's more useful than the Bugatti and people seem to be keen on using the Porsche.
