LSEC N100 Research Skill 3
Comparing the Bugatti Veyron and the Porsche

There are many favorite cars in the world. The most luxurious and wonderful car is the Porsche. However, there are other powerful vehicles. The best is the Bugatti Veyron. Now I will compare these two cars and I will show the similarities and the differences.

There are differences and similarities and now I will start with the similarities. The first similarity is that both are sport cars. The second similarity is that both are coupes. For example: they have only two doors. The final similarity is that both the cars have engines at the back. There are many cars with engines at the front of the car and the others at the back. But in these cars the engine is at the back.

Now I will begin with the differences. The main difference is that the Porsche 911 turbo is expensive. However, the Bugatti Veyron is more expensive. For example: the Porsche 911 turbo costs $137,360 (Renolds, p.158) but, the Bugatti Veyron costs $ 1.6 million.( Schwartzapfel, p.82) .Another difference is that the Porsche 911 turbo top speed is 192 mph (Renolds, p.158), but, the Bugatti Veyron top speed 253 mph. That means the Bugatti Veyron (Schwartzapfel, p.82) is faster than Porsche 911 turbo(Renolds, p.158),. The final difference is the weight of these two cars and it shows that the Bugatti Veyron is heavier than the Porsche 911 turbo. For example: the weight of the Bugatti Veyron is 5000 lb (Schwartzapfel, p.82) However, the Porsche 911 turbo is 3650 lb. (Renolds, p.158).

In conclusion, despite the differences or the similarities between the two cars, they are considered two of the most desirable, luxurious, and classy cars in the whole world. I think the Bugatti Veyron is better than the Porsche 911 turbo because the Bugatti Veyron is more elegant and good.
