BTW, use some common sense. Lightweight, RWD powerhouse vs awd, luxry coupe sports car, GT2 is Z06 competition, blue devil is just another excuse to try and take the throne!

Regardless, I was just trying to level the playing field. If you're going to take the best from one manufacturer, then take the best from the other. In any case neither are even released yet so internet racing is pretty useless. I believe the original topic was regarding the C6 Z06 vs. the 997TT, not these future variations.

Is the blue devil even going to get built? Judging from the great profits GM is having (Not) I doubt it. Either way I dont care, its not a car for me.
Had a GM product once and it was a GMC Denali, good SUV. Chevy's just dont cut it I dont care how fast they are you are what you are regardless of how fast you can run. And why do some people turn a simple thread into a pissing match about how much "better" the Vette is. ITS NOT, more to it than just the numbers, its the feeling of what you drive and for some Porsche is the way to go, others who cant/wont get a Porsche get something else. We never had this kind of pissing matches between a Ferrari car or a Lambo since I have been here, which leads me to believe that its the Vette enthuisiast (some) who come here to beat a dead horse on how a Vette Z06 is faster, we get it it is faster to some speeds. We are OK with it we just dont care.
As far as the article magazine that is what they did, good for them.

On the topic of the thread, I don't think anyone was trying to turn this thread into a pissing match about how much better the vette is, the only post I saw was shoving off topic to bring the GT2 into it. Of course most threads do end up that way.
That said, I prefer the 997TT.

I stand corrected looks like there will be a derivative of the Z06 possible named the Z07. We shall see in time.
Supposedly with ALOT more power than the current Z06.
To each its own. Thank you Dr. Porsche for having a dream and making it a reality. Now bring on the 997 GT2 already Stuttgart !

Porsche has the Carrera GT, the best Porsche out so in fact i guess could be compared to the Z06 since its an entry level Supercar performer correct? But instead they go after the 911 Turbo series and in particular the 997TT. Maybe because the GT2 isnt out? Maybe because once the GT2 comes out it wont be able to do what it does against the 997TT? Who knows!
I love the Z06, believe me i do, its just the GT2 is main competition for a Z06, not the awd turbo like i said!
