I'm afraid your friend doesn't have a clue. Ferraris and Porsches are very and different and tend to draw a very different crowd in terms of enthusiasts. Sure, there are enthusiasts who own both. But no well informed enthusiast would view Ferrari as necessarily a step up. If you wanted to by an out and out driver's car, for instance, you take a manual 997.2 GT3 RS over a semi-auto 458.

For wealthy non-enthusiasts, they may well see a Ferrari as the next logical step because they tend to be more expensive.
