From page 2
Porsche 911 Turbo $26,200
Chevy Cobalt $24,095

I would get the Porsche it is only ~ $2K more:tu:
Obviously, this article is full of bad information.

as always, its a make sure you really review the data.. while the volumetric efficiency is really covered in depth..did they bother to check out the power to weight ratio of any of these cars? The Vette looks pretty decent in that category. Also, they bring up Fast and Furious. Well, if you mod you little car they way they did, I am guessing that the gas mileage is a bit different than stock too..
