Where could I find sales statistics for luxury cars; preferably Porsche?

I would like monthly or quarterly (or yearly) data for the last 10-20 years, thanks

This is the actual Porsche site and it has statistics from 2004-current http://www.porsche.com/usa/aboutporsche/pressreleases/pag/archive2008/quarter4/?pool=international-de&id=2008-10-01 . I would try to contact Porsche to see if you can get data for the last 10-20 years.

Is there any difference in performance between the different name brands of gasoline for cars?

For example, I'm wondering why one gas station across the street costs $.05 more for the same octane of gasoline. I don't notice any difference in performance for my car between the different brands (Exxon, Valero, Conoco, etc) of gasoline.

The difference is in the additives and detergents that go in the fuel. That's why Shell, Exxon, and Chevron tend to run a few cents more.

Long-term use of cheap fuel can end up costing you more. You'll need to change your fuel filter more often, perhaps buy aftermarket additives to keep your fuel injectors clean, and in extreme cases cause fuel pumps to go bad from poor fuel quality.

how can Ron Dennis hopes mclaren will be exonerated when they have already been found guilty?

However, it's now up to the Court of Appeals to decide mclaren's fate and Dennis is hoping that in doing so they will exonerate his team in the spy scandal.
We are in F1 to win. But the most important thing is not just winning, it is how we win," he said. "I do not know what twists and turns are going to take place in the Court of Appeal.
"If we do not come out of that Court of Appeal with an unblemished reputation then the results of this season will be tainted.
How can mclaren be found quilty by the fia, then a few weeks later on an appeal be ferrari, regarding why there was no punishment for mclaren, suddenly be found not quilty and be exonerated?

I think what he meant was that he hopes that the court of appeal will pretty much see the same thing that the FIA saw at the first hearing and be cleared once again. It's a pretty strange way for him to say it like he did because it kinda gives the public to think "well, from how he's saying it, maybe they did do something other than just taking those documents." He might want to rethink how he says things because when I saw his quotes, I thought to myself that there's more to what's going on! I hope I'm wrong on that!

would you rather have an audi r8 or a maserati gran turismo?

i saw a maserati gran turismo today in the city and my friend was talking a lot of crap about how the audi r8 is so much better. i, on the other hand, would rather have a maserati than the r8….what about you?

As a piece of engineering the Audi R8 is a fabulous car with supercar baiting performance and road presence. However, out of the two i’d go for the Maserati. It’s drop dead gorgeous with a wonderful and charismatic 4.2-litre V8. Yes, its slower than Audi but who cares when you’re in something that look so stylish and cool.

Which is faster the Bugatti Veyron or the Koenigsegg CCR?

I heard once that the bugatti Veyron was the fastest car made, but in a quiz game the correct answer was the koenigsegg ccr, this was a recently made game too, so the answer and question must have been new, but I don't know. Which is the faster car? Correct me if I am wrong to assume the above two are the fastest, whichever one you think is faster, tell me in your answer.

Good question. koenigsegg claim that the CCR is good for 395+ kph, which works out about 247 mph. But as we've seen on top gear the Veyron WILL do 253.
The only question that remains is what exactly does that + equate to???

I think this deserves a race, lets get on to Clarkson and have this resolved…!!! What d'ya reckon?

Does a 2.5 inch high flow catalytic converter make the exhaust louder with better sound or loud an annoying?

I have a greddy evo2 exhaust and I ordered a 2.5 inch stainless steel high flow high performance sports catalytic converter, what effect will this have on my car, in terms of soun quality and performance? Also the piping for the catback is 2.5 inches.

The result will be in less restriction(back pressure) in the exhaust system not in sound.
