A better one might be designer clothes vs. regular clothes. The designer clothes are for fashion and cost significantly more, but they don't serve any additional function, or offer any better performance over any other clothes. In this case someone is paying for brand and design, which is what they pay for also when they buy a Sony. You are right, it was a loose analogy.

Where it fails is the lack of consideration for performance of the vehicle (speed, acceleration, and handling) = CPU performance) which is a very important factor when considering either. If your analogy were to be made strong, the Ferrari would need swap its original engine for that of a Camry's and then be compared to a Corolla. Since performance is a factor that largely determines product class, the fact that the Vaio X uses an Atom processor still forces it retain the performance of a netbook. Unfortunately, no one has yet managed to dramatically increase a product's performance from improving on its physical appearance. There is aerodynamics in cars, yes, but there unfortunately, making it a little easier to hold and carry around doesn't make a laptop faster.
