If i were a millionaire the first car i would buy would be a new z06 corvette.....honestly porsche really has to stop making all the cars look the same, and i could care less if the leather is softer and if there are pieces of polished wood inside the car, the corvette is a car that would fit me better and already has a big aftermarket to make it twice as fast and out handle a GT2

if i wanted a fast good handling european car that could kick some *** i would get a ferrari

Yea, why worry about performance when we're talking about high performance cars?

You're right we should all buy third gen Camaros and make them run 7's on street tires then we'd get all the ladies and have the nicest cars ever built..

Trust me in the end.. One is driving a Porsche the other is driving a Vette. There is a difference between a Vette and a Porsche.. I've had both and trust me the Porsche > Vette.

I had a chance to get a new Z06, a new Viper, or the Porsche.. You can guess what I picked.. Most people that buy a Porsche don't buy them to drag race they are geared to road race. Ever look at a Porsche gearbox? The gearing is not setup for drag racing LOL!

As far as girls go.. If you use a car to get women then you've got a problem. Though when it does come to the drive by looks the Porsche gets a LOT more then the Vette does. According to the way some of you all think the Z06 gets looks then a Ferrari would!

THANK YOU!! Porsche's arnt designed to go in straight lines, but more of squigly (sp?) lines. sure some people will take them for a quick roll race....but come on, they're a fish out of water when they do that...it's only a once in a while thing.

But you would be a millionaire right? I'm sure you could afford one.

...what the f is your problem? Your are constantly on this post just instigating bs. In a conversation about a Z06 and 911 turbo you post some bs quote like the one above. Hell yes it about performance, thats what these cars do. They go fast. Oh let me guess, now you will say oh the Porsche is exotic...wrong they actually make and sell far more Porsches than any other performance car Vettes included. Or maybe you'll run the same old tired fit and finish argumet...screw both these cars I'd get a Merc. if I wanted fit and finish. Ya know what I just think your parents didn't give you engough attention when you were little, youre like a duck quack quack quack.

Uhhh, if it wasn't for the performance of any of these cars there wouldn't even be a topic to discuss. If you have no concern about performance than you're on the wrong website.

LOL I laugh at the idiots posting in this thread. Go drive a Z06 and go drive a Porsche Turbo.. tell me what you would rather have.. I know 95% of you have never driven one in your life so.. please do it and come tell me what you think.

There is a reason why I abandoned the LS1 world for a Porsche. Considering my last LS1 went faster then anyone in this thread I think. Also have a MTI 427 Vette at the house too (NVR4GET 10.55 letting out All motor LS2 427) and trust me its NOTHING like driving the Porsche.

This is your "opinion"...I have both as well and they are totally different vehicles. My Z06 is by FAR the purer driving vehicle...when I wan't to let the car drive for me I drive the Porsche and its multiple, multiple, computer controls handle the rest...and as far as your last LS1 being faster than anyone else on this thread...that has nothing to do with a new Z06 or 997 turbo.

What the **** is my problem? What is yours? I said I'd rather have the 911 and you kids keep getting all butt hurt when I list the million and one reasons why. Don't be angry, just say "_Zac you obviously know a lot about cars, and maybe one day when I'm ****** one hundred I'll know half as much as you did about this." Then we'll be pals.
