According to this admittedly very anti-Cirrus website, an SR22 is seven

times louder than a C-182:

Interesting PDF but basically bull**** put out by a Cessna sales rep trying to
make some sales.
Being that it contrasts a Turbo Skylane with a Cirrus SR22 & gives 101 reasons
why the Cessna is a better airplane ( & it probably is for some people), the
facts are that 2003 sales are Cessna 182T = 47, while the Cirrus SR22 = 355.
Obviously, a lot of purchasers either didn't read the referenced PDF or else
took it for what it was

I agree that the pdf is very biased toward Cessna. But I think the bias
is in the presentation, not in misrepresentation. For example they give
the correct fact that Cirrus blows away Cessna in cruising speed, then
try to say that's not important. But the facts presented are correct.
If you disagree, what specific facts in that PDF are wrong?

Btw, you may not think comparing a turbo skylane with an SR-22 is valid,
but if it's a comparison of $300K vs. $300K it's very valid in my opinion.
