    The only thing about that is Me, Vteckidd, and you could all buy a Z06 plus one for each of our best friends and all six of us turn 7min 42 sec laps for the same amount that we could buy one Carrera GT for. lol. Hell for 450k that bitch better have some mechanical lips that extend out of the dash and suck my dick while I'm circling the track.

    It's still a chevy.

    I mean not doubting it is the cheapest/fastest, but its still gonna be common. I mean you pull up in a porsche 996 and a guy next to you has a vette, who do you think will draw more attention? And isn't that the point of owning exotics? Eh...

    It's still a chevy.

    Since when are Porsches drag strip cars? We shall see what performance figures that the 997TT puts out. Remember, the C6 Z06 isn't in the same generation as the 996TT (my car). The C5 Z06 is, however. The new, 997TT should put out some impressive numbers. The C5 Z06 was dead even with the 996TT at the Nurburgring given one publication that I saw on the vette board (7:56, but I cannot confirm, deny the accuracy), but I remember seeing that it scored a 7:58 or perhaps just over 8:00. We'll see what the new one does (apples to apples comparison if you will).

    we'll see, i think its funny to see a porshe owner defend his car against a car that costs way less and is american. and anyone that doesnt thinkg the new ZO6 isnt an exocitc well maybe its not italian, or german, but it certainly deserves to get ranked up there

    how much is the new porsche going to cost again?

    kthxbye

    EDIT: RE READ RUINER. i said the ZO6 outperforms the porshe on the TRACK and the DRAG STRIP. so it can win against the porshe on the porshes turf, and its own turf.

    I saw the article as I was waiting to get my haircut 2 weeks ago. The C5 Z06 beat the 996TT by a second......I remember looking for my gen car that is why I remember.

    Still a C5 Z06 and 996TT are so close in comparison as far as performance it's sick! Only REAL difference is price and emblem on the hood!

    Hear let me clarify AGAIN.

    your comparing apples to oranges. A much HIGHER priced porsche vs a much chaper Chevy.

    thats my argument, your telling my opinion is wrong, whic you cant do. i would rather save the 80K$ and get a chevy. you on the other hand feel differently. what if i told you your wheels were ugly (which i dont) would you argue and tell me that im wrong?

    bottom line is the Chevy Vette is a MUCH cheaper and much BETTER Handling and FASTER car than the Porsche, Ferrari, or Lambo. you cant argue that.

    The C6 Z06 is the best bang for the buck, but that isn't want you originally said. You realize this, correct? NOBODY is going to argue that it isn't the best bang for the buck. You would be stupid to do so. However, does that make it faster than those cars?

    No. It isn't faster than all models from those 3 companies. It might be cheaper and faster than some of the models that cost more than it, but not all models. It's a mixed bag of nuts. It is faster than some, slower than others.

    Best bang for the buck, yes. Better than all Ferrari, Porches, and Lambos is ridiculous.

    maybe i was too broad in my generalization, truth be known i dont know alot about older porsches and specs, i drive a honda.

    and i love your car, but if i had 200000 to spend, i would spend it on a vetter and a house, rather than a porsche. hell i used to be best friends with the lead tech of Ferrari Of Scotsdale in arizona. it was a joint dealership and they sold Astin Martin and porsche as well. He would call me on certain days cause thats where they would store the Ferrari Challenge cars for tear down and rebuild/inspection. There was a 550, 355 and a 360 all in the showroom floor. and you know which car i would have chosen out of that whole dealership? a blue porsche they had there with soft grey leather interior, carrera 4. I like german interior so much more than Italian

    but i think the new Z06 and even the old Z06 /C5R were great cars

    I think vteckidd is just trying to say this:

    Porsche GT is faster, but for the money you can have a very closely rated car performance wise for a 1/5 of the price.

    This statement is very true.

    Hey, this reminds me.......Bill Heard is suppose to call me once they get one for me to test drive..........watch out Buford residents it could get smokey around here!

    Well, if he really wants to compare, he can put the C6 Z06 up against the Porsche 911 GT2 (996). They both ran the exact same time on the ring (7:42). The 911 GT2 (996) is the race version of the 911 turbo (much like the Z06 is the race version of the vette). The GT2 runs ~$190,000. Comparing the new Z06 to that would be more acceptable. I will say this, though, the 997TT and 997GT2 will be interesting.

    I have yet to disagree with you on this statement, Mike. It is hands down, the best bang for the buck sport car sold.

    Marshall, he said that the C6 Z06 was better than Porsche. He included the company as a whole. Until he explains that statement, I clearly showed him an instance where it wasn't. Agreed?

    I never said ONE bad thing about the Z06, yet his response was unwarranted in my opinion. You know that I have nothing but respect for the Z06 as you know me. This kid, however, doesn't.
