RACE: After seeing a video of a C6 ZO6 vs. a gallardo from a roll, and seeing the recent video on autobahn of 997TT vs gallardo i think that its going to be very very very close race. Honestly, i think it can go either way, mostly depending on how well the drivers shift gears.

Do you have a link to the video of the 997TT and the gallardo on the autobahn? I don't think I have ever seen it. Thanks

Stock for stock, Z06 wins but not by much. The driver will make more of a difference than the car at this point. I want the Turbo to win though.

Braking:
60-0 in 98'

Acceleration:
0-60 in 3.4
0-100 in 7.5
0-150 in 17.5 secs

And I wont even get into the engineering aspect of the car. Then I might make you look really bad. Actually, I will just quote a TT owner after actually driving a C6 Z06, unlike most who just use the typical stereotyping:

"I traded cars with a friend last week- his C6 Z06 for my Turbo S. The Z06 is, as you said, an engineering marvel. I loved the car- I want one"- aj996TT

"the C6Z is by far the best sportscar that I've ever driven...I'd take the C6Z over the 996 Turbo S"- aj996TT

Now I am not saying the Z06 is the better car, but I am trying to shed some light on your stupidity, that's all..
BTW, rather then trying to prove a point that is based off everyone's own point of view and opinion, you are really trying hard to get us too love the Z06 and think Porsche turbo's are nothing!

Everyone is different, some people would take a Z06 over the TT, others TT over Z06. I agree some people arent open minded to see the car is GREAT, they totally changed the Z06 into an ultra performing supercar with some refinement, that's great and i respect that. But all of your arguing will not change people's minds, your being no better by arguing against the turbo as the other's arguing that the Z06 is garbage!

On that note, send me your video's please

Martin

Absolutely not the case. Look at my original thread and what I said about the new TT. Scroll down some and then look at who started making attacks first. I gave props to the Turbo, and then I get the usual ******bag(s) making typical stereotypes about the car and ridiculing it even when they have probably never experienced the car. That just gets old too fast.


I will pm you the links to the videos now..

SCvet00,
This Porsche vs. Z06 topic is getting old. Maybe since you drive a Z06 you should discuss over at corvetteforums and stir the pot over there. Seriously, we have already have 10 threads like this.

After seeing this video and the 997 vs Gallardo like ten more times, i honestly think that the 997 will get a early jump on the Z06 and then they will be neck and neck....i think a lot will be riding on the drivers ability to shift gears quickly
