You have to delete this question because the only answer you're going to get is Corvette is a Chevy not a Ford

chevy corvette.

The 911 is a refined sports car while the corvette is a boy racer.

1 The corvette is a Chevy

2 No it isn't a wanna be porsche. The engine size and wheel base of the two aren't comparable.

Just because two cars have headlight, wheels, and seats doesn't make them alike.

Ford makes the MUSTANG which is better then the Chevy Corvette. It also was better then the 911. You can not compare an old Shelby Mustang to a 911 and expect the 911 to come out on top. The thing is that a 911 is a position thing. it is not that it's better, it is just costly.

first of all, it's a CHEVROLET Corvette,and while they may look alike, the porsche could win in nearly any comparision because the corvette wasn't made to compete with the 911.

First Corvette fitted 1955.
First 911 fitted 1964.
Lots of models of each in the last 42 years.

Totally different cars consequently of the difference in engineering and corporate philosophy, though these cars may have at times looked somewhat alike.

Chevrolet may have built a cheap two seated brute great for straight line performance and flashy looks, but Porsche built a timeless and balanced tool for enjoying a range of driving conditions, and that is why I have a 911 in my garage.

Now wait just hold on everyone..Maybe this good gentleman has really seen a FORD CORVETTE and maybe just maybe it really does resemble a Porsche 911. So lets give the young man his props for at least knowing that Porsche makes the 911.

There so many wanna be 911s.Nissan 350z for example. Everyone is trying to compete with porsche.which I believe still the benchmark as far as sports cars go and still one the best cars money can purchase.

by the way .its Chevy corvette, not ford

i think you may want to know a little about cars before you ask those questions. there's no comparison beetween the two. a porsche is for show offs who wish to spen 2,000 extra bux on air conditioning which is an choice on porsches. when you purchase a porsche you get a car with an engine and a frame. you have to pay a lot for everything else. corvettes are much better.&#92,

BTW it's CHEVY CORVETTE NOT FORD

OK . the Corvette is a Chevrolet. It and the Porsche are as unalike as two automobiles can possibly be. Corvette is all about a big engine and most newer ones are quicker than a 911 ON STRAIGHT PAVEMENT. A 911 is about maneuverability and decent to excellent acceleration, based on the year and type, as well as the capability to STOP and TURN. they are two things that stock Corvettes just don't do well. On a drag strip most Corvettes can beat most Porsche 911s. On a twisty course, the tighter the turns the better, the 911 will run away with it easily. Both may be beautiful cars, but people can ruin anything by fooling around with the looks without knowing what they are doing.

Ok its chevy but each one else said that already but really what I'm going to say is that the porsche is way better then the corvett they only thing you're paying for on a corvette is the power while porsche is powerful, fast, they handle like godly cars and they have real and beautiful interiors, and they're way safer, but one of the big thing about them are that a porsche is a porsche of course and that has a way better brand name and porsche yes they're way more realible and gas friendly then corvettes.
