M5 and M6 are not faster than a Gallardo, 997TT has gotten beaten by a Z06 Vette on several occasions, and we shall see where the Murcielago falls.

04 Gallardo Egear Rental car, vs 06 C6 Zo6 that ran 11.5 @125 at the track. Judging by Gustavs results, his 997TT would walk all over a Z06, and if you guys believe that, you are dreaming.

I respect that but I also have a 997TT and there is no way it is faster than my Murci(moded). I think my 430 can give it a good run also. I do not own an se but have driven one and It feels just as strong.

That's definitely surprising..The Z06 should be trouncing the Gallardo especially being an 04 Gallardo.

That is more than a few... that is the majority of them... you may have named them all. Plus, the Z06 and F-GT are arguable.

No they aren't. Z06 has more power and less weight. The TT might have an advantage only from a stop up to the 1/4 mile point. But, even a good driver in the Z06 would negate it's AWD advantage (Remember, the Z06 has gone mid-low 11's with good drivers in bone stock trim @125+ mph)

The Ford GT has even more power than the Z06, and it is about the same weight as the TT. The GT and the Z06 are very close to 150, while the TT is over a second behond. Just stating the facts.

lets see what happens when the Porsche RWD GT2 comes out and then you can cry that your car is being chewed up and spit back out! the GT2 is going to absolutely crush everything in sight. with the power is supposed to have, and the weight, with relation to the 997TT running as fast as 11.6 in the quarter, we will prob see the 997 GT2 running high 10s. then what are you gonna say? beside 'your car costs $200K+'? NOTHING! 997TT and gallardo are two of the SEXIEST looking and fastest cars on the road! PERIOD!
