Default Porsche by Ferrari

I was in the car with my four year old - he loves cars.

He said to me - Daddy, is your Porsche made by Ferrari.

No

But Daddy, it's got a Ferrari badge.

No it hasn't.

It has Daddy, look...






Never thought of that before!!!

Horse in the Ferrari badge looks leaner and stronger. Take from that what you will

Oddly, Porsche horse appears to have a better weight distribution.

I thought the lightweight Porsches didn't have proper badges anyway? Are they stickers rather than the old enamel badges?
