I wouldnt normally say this, but i would take the Z over the 997. Hard to resist a 427 vette that has 10's potential bone stock.
Plus, most women wouldnt be able to tell the difference between a vette and a ferrari.

I doubt it. most of the chicks i run into at the club are either too ignorant or too drunk to know the difference.
I was home from school at one point and took my moms stock C6 to the bank. A girl coming out asked me if it was a ferrari

If I were to drive it for years..Porsche wins all over the place.....drive for 2-5 years..probably the vette...probably sell the Porsche after 5 years and buy a year old vette then...I dunno really--hard choice....Porsche cars are really nice...a friend has a 2002 911 Turbo...helluva car..feels like its on rails at 80 in a turn...best car I have ever been in..and I have been in C5"s...no comparison really.

It actually beat this in the Nurburgring which is all decked out by Porsche with a rollcage.

Hop in an LS460L, an S class mercedes, etc. Slow as *****, but holy **** nice.
A porsche is a "nicer" car overall. but to be honest, i have never been one to need the NICEST interior on my "fun" car. The vette interior is 'nice." As good as a porsche? no. but who gives a ****, its a purpose built car. Ill take a 10.8 @ 129 on drag radials with a fairly nice interior over an 11.8 @ 122 with a really nice interior anyday.
Just my opinion. Opinions are like ********, everyone has one.

"Its really fast for being only 6 cyl" "My brother's really smart for being legally retarded". Chevy didn't make porsche use a N/A 6 cyl they chose too, and it just so happens that there all-out track car doesn't bring enough to the table to keep up.

Like I said before anyone can polish a turd, but in the end it's still a turd. If it ment losing every race to every polished turd out there I'd still be driving a Porsche and you would still be in your turd.
Where did this turn into the GT3 vs the Z06 anyway?

I've driven TT Porsches... they're solid under braking because of the squatting that comes w/ the rear weight bias, but they're rather scary in turns as it's very easy to get off-throttle oversteer.
Even porsche owners will tell you, "Porsche... bad design engineered to perfection."
